Why Whole Foods is Worth it

Driving the buggy

Is it the organic products? The cool reusable bags? The cleanliness or amazing food court?

Oh no...its the cool car buggies that completely engage and distract Pearson Tucker! No whinning! Just cruising!

Not only do they entertain P, but they also turn on a dime. Now if you've used a Publix car buggy, you know the difficulty in making a turn. It usually involves knocking over a display and running into the single guy who is not sympathetic to a mom just trying to buy groceries.

So thank you Whole Foods for such a lovely buggy, and we will be back when Lolly is out of food! Sadly our budget prohibits us from using you for the bulk of our groceries.

You get what you pay for....Publix we will be driving your ghetto buggy soon!

the park

Today Pearson and I enjoyed the warm winter weather with a visit to the park. He enjoyed swinging, climbing up the slide, and picking up rocks! We went to the park at my mom's school, so it was completely empty.

I think Pearson is trying to learn how to tickle...when he sees bare skin he grabs and smiles, which is quite funny.
He also enjoys directing as in music..he doesn't have any bossy genes, so I'm not sure why he wants to direct?
Anyhoo, it is very funny to watch him swing both arms when music plays...our little maestro.

Ill post birthday and Christmas pictures soon!

It only took me approximately 2 months to figure out how to post pics to the blog via my phone. Who is really counting? (Paige, NeNe, Tyler, Marion, Kathy, just to name a few!)

Here is one pic to wet your appetite....now don't go getting your hopes up and setting the standards high. I'm going to try to post more pics more often.

My new year's resolution...post more!

Boston Trip

I'm blogging from Boston, MA on Marlbrough Street a block over from Newbury Street while visiting my friends, Emalee and Mark Holmes. Their dog, Jackson, has been very kind to allow Pearson to completely invade his space. Pearson is accustom to Lolly's love (licks), so he keeps leaning into Jackson with his mouth open wide. Jackson is a well behaved dog unlike the Lolly girl, thus Pearson has not received very many kisses, which should make his NeNe, Nana, and Granny pleased!

Pearson made his first flight on Saturday morning and was perfect! He smiled over the seat at a partner from Darrell's firm, which was a relief. He really knows how to put on the charm when needed. We arrived Saturday afternoon and strolled around Beacon Hill, the Public Common, and then went back to the Holmes to enjoy delicious pizza.

On Sunday we enjoyed brunch at Masa. Kat was in Boston for a wedding and was able to join us, which was quite a treat. I'll see her twice in one week! Then we strolled and shopped around the Holmes neighborhood. Em had cute little cupcakes to celebrate my birthday. Red Velvet with cream cheese icing and a candle to celebrate 29 and holding until I'm 39 and holding!

On Monday, we headed to North End for a oysters at Neptune! Em tried her first slimly delicacy and opted to never eat an oyster again. Then we walked a block to burn some calories before indulging in sweet treats from Mike's Pastries, home of the best cannoli ever. So in honor of the best cannolis ever, Em ate Boston Cream Pie and I ate Tiramisu. Darrell was disappointed with our choices. He truly loves the cannoli and cannot find one that compares to Mike's anywhere south of the Mason Dixon!

Boston is a beautiful city bustling with people strolling, walking dogs along the cobblestone sidewalks. The shopping is fantastic and the food is divine! Pearson and I have truly enjoyed our trip
