5/04 - Ninjago wants to go up, up, and away

He tried to sneak on for a hot air balloon ride, but it was only a picture on the side of a truck.

Congratulations to Lil' Guy on his award today for being friendly and cooperative!!  I am so proud of you!  Has Lil' Gal's wiggly tooth come out yet?

Apparently, it’s my one-year twitterversary today!  (Who knew?)  I was going to treat myself to a cupcake, but then things got very busy.  So Ninjago and I raided the snack drawer.  Isn’t he a good helper?

12/09 - Bonus post! I won an award!

Not Supermom gave me the "Tell Me About Yourself" Award.  I'm a winner!!!  Woooo!!!  Thank you!

The Tell Me About Yourself Award requires the recipient to:

• Thank the person who gave the award.
• List 7 things that people may not know about you.
• Pass the award to 15 other bloggers and notify them.
  (You should give the award to someone who hasn't already received it.)
• Post the badge on your blog.

I'd much rather talk about my kids' toys, but here are seven things you might not know about me.

1. I can correctly identify *and* sing along to 8 or 9 of 10 polka songs, and I don’t know why.
2. I am a roller derby grrrl.
3. I resent fruit for pretending it’s so easy to eat, when it actually requires all kinds of washing, peeling, and chopping to turn it into nice little bites.
4. I have never skied, eaten a biscotti, or watched Saturday Night Fever.
5. Robin Williams once cut me off and took the parking spot I wanted.
6. Tall ships make me swoon. In a dreamy schoolgirl crush kinda way.
7. I am not really left-handed.
