Protect-a-Sauras

My son has been setting these guys up every morning.





Apparently, he is concerned about a potential intruder.






The best part is that the "Dino-Guards" are a more obvious solution to him then shutting the door.  

Man, I love that kid.

We were in Target last week and they had this "demonstration" monster/dinosaur/godzilla thing. It was hilarious. And my girls kept going back to press the button to make it roar. And stomp. And whatever else it did. They wanted to buy it for our hooligan kitties...

How funny is that! I wish I had something like that to work on our cats. They are relentless when they want to get into a room.

That is just too cute!!! My son also loves the dinosaurs and tries to chase our dog around too - but she's a german shepherd.

Brilliant, per usual.

Oh, he and Gabe would so get along! That is what he most looking forward to at Disney: the dinosaur rides and digging up dino bones at Animal Kingdom. Forget Mickey, he wants his t-rex.

So, does it work? To keep the dog out, I mean?

I need some of those for my room! That may cut down on my midnight surprise of a Polly Pocket lounge chair (the one my little "angel" dragged in my room along with the entire Cruise ship)from ripping the bottom of my foot open!

Know where I can get some??? hee hee hee...

Your blog rocks, sister!

Don't ya know..if he shuts the door the bad guys can open it but the dino-guards will scare them away, having never step foot into his room! (I know, I have 3 boys & the second one has explained before).

Dinoguards are WAY more interesting than a shut door.

He's clearly a brilliant, creative think-OUTside-the-box kind of dude!

My Big News and a $100.

Image
It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared! You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliency in the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son. Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that! A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm. They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking , an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids. Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys. But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview. Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I wa

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness. Having said that, let's begin. So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB. Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this . Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie. I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this. McHottie : "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly remin

Blogging for Dollars?

My friend, Melissa , recently wrote this post , expressing her frustration with the small circle of bloggers who seem to be getting all the perks. I read it and left a lengthy comment, then realized I had even more to say. So, here it goes. I have been feeling some stress and increasing negativity in bloggyland lately. Unrest among the masses regarding PR, "A List" (whatever that is) Mommy Bloggers, the lack of money in blogging, etc. I've personally considered withdrawing completely and have spoken to a few other bloggers who are also feeling somewhat "disenchanted" with blogging as of late. It seems to have lost its luster. Here is how I see it: You begin blogging for fun. For connections. For camaraderie. You get a few followers and comments. You want more. You begin to see others talking about the free stroller or set of books. You want that too. Then you hear that some are getting to travel, meet with PR firms, speak at conferences. That sounds fun. You won
