Further Ramblings...

So not much exciting has happened in the last week or so. We went to a birthday party for Ella's friend, Olivia, last weekend and a BBQ at Kate and Pete's house. The food was sooo delicious. Ella and Lily had fun playing with everyone all weekend. On Monday, we did a usual trip to Target. But it was more eventful than most Target visits. Another celeb sighting for you to add to your list. Jennie Garth was there! I would guess many of my blog readers will have no clue who she is. However, I also know that Camille and Jenn W. will be highly jealous of me if they read this. Jennie Garth was one of the stars of the tv show, Beverly Hills, 90210. Sad to say, but I watched this show until the very end. Ironically, I also spotted Brian Austin Green (another 90210 alum) at the same Target a few years back. Anyway, I glanced her way and then thought to myself, "She looks a lot like Jennie Garth." I did a double take which she noticed. And it was her. She is ginormously pregnant right now and she had her two older girls in a cart and was pushing it around with no nanny in sight. I gawked for a minute and then went on my merry way. It's funny when I first moved here, I would have been elated at this star sighting, but now its sort of like, they are real people too, who shop at Target and they just have this job where they end up on tv or movie screens. No big deal. The funny thing is that I mentioned it to a friend of mine and she forwarded me a link to this. That was the day I saw her at Target! I just can't even imagine someone following me around in their car, taking pictures of me as I'm just out and about on a normal day. And paying attention to what I had in my shopping cart!

I have a whole different view of the paparazzi now that I've been living here for awhile. It would just suck to know that going out in my sweats with no makeup, hair air-dried, and someone is going to take a picture of me and put it on the internet. Really its amazing people care that much. I know, I know. I subscribe to People magazine and for some reason I am entertained by reading the latest celeb gossip or seeing these pictures that are taken. It's like they are royalty or something. Why do we care? They are just regular people living their lives. I warned you I was going to ramble today.

So getting back to us, the regular people. Lily is almost walking!! She stands up all on her own and just looks around like she is thinking about taking those steps but is still a little leary about it. Last night she took 4-5 steps all on her own! It's amazing how fast she is growing up. She also seems to be getting attached to one of her bear blankets. It was on the floor last night and she started dragging it around whereever she went (don't worry my floors are spotless for house showings). :-) It was pretty darn cute! Speaking of house showings....

We were supposed to have an offer put in last weekend but it has yet to show up. Not sure what's going on with that. We have some more people coming by tonight. Actually at a really inconvenient time, right before the girls are supposed to go to bed. But I'm trying not to be too annoyed about it. Some day the house will sell and we'll actually move....

Thus ends another post of my ramblings.....until next time. :-)
