Blue jean ad: Used to be a gorgeous, skinny woman in jeans.......Now, a gorgeous, skinny woman in jeans holding her baby. Leisure wear ad: Used to be a sexy woman in a breezy sundress......Now, a sexy woman in a breezy sundress curled up with her darling baby. Just in case the look isn't completely unattainable, they've thrown in the impossible accessory.

And now it would be a small dog as an accessory. Shouldn’t the clothing be the main focus?Good morning, Cathy clan!! I missed you guys! Our trip to FL was good. Lil’s team didn’t do well in the competition, which caused their coaches to yell at them (which really made me mad), but the good news is that we are done with cheerleading for a while and we got a fun trip to Disney. The entire year still bothers me, but we’ll get over it and learn a lesson from it. Anyway, I’m glad to be back. Hope you all have a wonderful day!

(Whoops, I must have be typing my comment while Susan was typing hers. Sometimes, I start my comment and then have to get the kids to school, so I don’t post it until later. Oh well, great minds think alike!)

I’ll go for the dog over the baby anytime.

No matter what product someone is selling (whether I’m interested in buying it or not), I’m MUCH more likely to take a closer look at the ad if there’s a cute puppy/dog in it than if there are babies/kids in it and I’m sure that I’m not the only one either!!!!!
Hi, rgcviper!
lightenup: So sorry that Lil’s coaches felt the need to be so mean and abusive to the cheerleading team just because they weren’t able to advance in the competition to the 2nd day. They had an otherwise great year so why not end it on a good, positive note instead of yelling at them and making them cry? What did they hope to gain by doing that? Some people are just not meant to work with children! I’m assuming this is a school cheerleading team. Can you go to the principal, superintendent or the school board and have these coaches fired for what they did? Something like that can really crush a child’s spirit and shouldn’t be allowed to happen. Poor little dears!!!!! I’m glad you enjoyed your trip to Disney World though. Maybe that helped make up for the coaches’ meanness just a little bit?!? Hopefully anyhow!!!!! Please be sure to tell her how proud her “Cathy” family is of her and how well her team did this year!!!!! :-)
Hello and Happy Tuesday, fellow “Cathy” clan. Hope everyone had a really nice day today!
