Trick or Treating with Lindsay Lohan



It was Halloween yesterday which means TRICK OR TREATING. I dressed up Ally as a witch for and she, her father, her baby brother and I set off for an evening of begging for candy.

This was Ally's second try at Trick or Treating. She was only 18 months last year and I entrusted her to the 2 year old daughter of another friend as they led each other down dark pathways to sugary delights. This year Ally and Taylor were old hats at the tradition.

I let Ally have a piece of candy at our first house, which was probably a mistake because once she got a taste of the delicious chocolaty taste, she was hooked. Addicted. Every time she got a piece of candy she would beg with me "Please Mommy I want the Candy" (Is now the time for me to say that I was doing my best Brittney imitation by starting off the evening by having 3 glasses of champagne w. a friend at a pumpkin carving party).



Well, we were able to get the sweet sugar from her, but this took a stint of putting ALly in Detox. One day at time baby, one day at time.

The day began this morning as she screamed from her bed "I WANT CANDY" I thought to myself, oh no, we may need to send her to that awesome rehab center in Utah. I could use a vacation. Luckily we were able to wean her off the sauce. Until next year...

Note: The photo is from last Halloween until I get my lazy self to put an updated one up!

Raising Her Right.....

As we cruise down the highway I hear a little voice behind me demanding song requests. Our latest obsession has been The Beatles. Sure The Beatles are all right. But well, it's just not enough attitude for me.

But my little music student made her momma proud when she said " I wanna hear The Boss! The Boss is Cool!" and as I placed Bruce Springsteen in the player, my heart filled with pride as my 2 year old diva screamed " I love The Boss! He is so cool!"

Oh my lovely student, we are going to get along just fine....
