Some random thoughts from my little sis...

My little sister is the queen of random. Hilarious when she wants to be. She is sitting across from me right now, working on a Strawberry Shortcake puzzle, unknowing that I shall be typing nearly every random word she is saying...

"16 candles...why do I keep singing that?"

"I don't have a boyfriend! I used to, but I don't....I have many."

"I'm not telling you who it is, though!" (Singsong voice)

"I am the hero of the world."

"You are the hero of the world, I am the hero of the country."

"Oh boy. I am so silly. I crack myself up."

"I love you, you are my favorite one to love...this boat." (Sesame Street reference)

"I...like...this...one...to...be...on...top...of...my...head." (referring to a puzzle piece)

"I...like...this...one...to...be...on...top...of...my...head...too."

"I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it." (Singing)

"Why do I keep saying 'man' after every sentence?"

"ABCDEFGHIJKL..M..N..O..P..Q..R..S -Will you stop typing what I say?!"

Oh dear...she caught me...

I am my biggest fan

I was trying to follow my sister's blog and ended up following my own instead...I am so popular.

Who, What, When, Where...Huh?

Why does being pregnant make it okay for complete strangers to walk up to you in the mall, at the grocery store, in line at the post office, in the drive through, put thier hand on your stomach and say, "Ohhhh, how cute!"

Why did it take longer for me to put pictures in my daughter's baby book than for my daughter to go from conception to eating solid foods?

Why are children the only people who can open child proof caps...and doors with those stinkin' door knob covers?

Why do they teach English rules when they don't apply on the first word reading list? Let's sound out have and once, shall we?

When the doctor tells you to de-stress your life and then charges you $800 - isn't that counter productive?

Who still loves Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, She-Ra, and He-man? (Besides me)

Why are they bringing back 80's fashion when it wasn't that tubular in the first place?

When did nine year olds start coming with their own cell phones?

Where are my glasses, cell phone, keys, and socks when I need them?

Hey, how can I get in on this action?

Picture Day

When I was a kid I never understood why everyone got dressed up for picture day. Didn't they want pictures of the way we really looked? I still don't get it...but I curled my daughter's hair for it...
