Potty Bribe... I mean incentive!

If you were at the post office and felt that feeling (you know the kind) AND told your mommy you had to go poo poo AND did it in your travel potty AND had no accidents during errand time then...
...you might get to go to TARGET and pick out anything you wanted in the whole store (dollar section)!!
WARNING!! Your mom will probably put the Tomboy Rock n' Roll Lid (black side out) on you in 100 degree weather to take a picture!

Eli chose the Dinosaur play pack isnstead of 1 larger dinosaur because the pack had "Like 5 dinosaurs in it!" Already a deal shopper... I'm so proud :)

When a Box is Not "Just" a Box

Remember when Eli "helped" me get out all the foil and I had loads of foil to get rid of?

One of our great foil creations was this rocket ship...It's had a bit of wear and tear since we made it but it is endless hours (minutes) of F-U-N!

Be sure to draw loads of controls and buttons for more make believe realism (LOL)!

Click here to print out the controls I made.

We have had more fun playing in this box that is so much more than a box.

The kiddos just keep adding scribbles.

I just keep counting down from 10.

Wanna see when Marcy's son (from the Glamorous Life Association the host of yesterday's giveaway) made a box into so much more than a box. Click here.

It's my pleasure to introduce to you Marcy...

Tell us a little about your family.
I have two boys, although I expected girls. There may or may not have been tears on the ultra-sound table. But now that they are 11 and 8...I wouldn't have it any other way. I have been married to The Husband (I have to call him that after an embarrassing incident at a Christmas Party when his boss and others were gathered around a computer reading MY BLOG. We, okay HE, decided he didn't want to be called by name anymore)....for TWELVE years. I have one insane sport freak kid and one science/film making/comedy kid. They are both brilliant and handsome. Just ask me. I am a SAHM or WAHM or MOB (mother of boys) or whatever you wanna call me. I work sometimes (public speaking, apparel consultant, writing) and sometimes I just do laundry. Lots and lots of laundry. Nobody warns you about the laundry involved in parenting do they?

Three words to describe you.
Bitchin, Awesome and Rad (can you tell I grew up in the 80's? This question was too hard to answer seriously.)
What will readers find when they read The Glamorous Life?
My hope and goal for The Glamorous Life Association is for visitors to feel entertained for a few minutes. Whether I make you laugh with my AdTalk series, or give you a giggle when complaining about the MOMfia in my neighborhood...I want you to feel just ENTERTAINED. And while I am at it I try to be very honest about living the so-called 'glamorous life' of being a wife and mother. So I guess I want you to feel a little NORMAL. Because this motherhood thing is nothing like the brochure. You are not alone. You've got me! Heck you are lifetime members of The Association!!! Come on by, just step over the Legos and laundry on the way in...
Favorite post...
Favorite Post? ARE U KIDDING? They are all my favorite. Okay that is a lie...but I really love my blog. Hmm let's see...how about this one. It is just one of my AdTalk series....there is a handy dandy Page click on my right sidebar that will take you to ALL of my AdTalk posts. So you can read them all here and avoid doing the laundry ALL DAY!!! You can thank me later.
