Sleighbells and schnitzel.

So, Julie Andrews has her idea of good things. And I have mine.

Here are a few:

My boys.

Miles' breath. I'm not kidding. It smells like cream cheese frosting. And if he eats a graham cracker it smells like a delicious after school snack. Only, today I was laying down and I forgot that I had just given him a piece of licorice and when I asked him if I could smell his breath a piece of slimy wetness dropped into my eye. So today it smelled like nibs, but most of the time it is frosting fantastic. I wish you could post smells because it would be totally worth it. I'll contact the blogger people and tell them to get going on this new technology.

HGTV.
I. love. it. We recently bought a house. I wrote into HGTV and told them that some rooms in my house need a makeover. I'm sure they should be getting back to me any day now...

My son's big head. 100th percentile people! Even though he has often been referred to as Stewie from The Family Guy and I myself have wondered if he is secretly plotting against me, I still love his head. The kid is going to be a genius!

My sister-in-law's blog. Because she posts more pictures and videos of Miles than I do. And who doesn't love someone that loves your kid? If you would like to check it out- click here.

Starfall.com
. If you have kids or can't read check out this website. Julie Keith from Erie introduced it to me and I am grateful for it. Miles is in love with it.

Miles' lisp. Pass is Pasth. Yes is Yeahsth. I wish I had one so I could sound as cool as he does.

"I'm a Mom
, I'm a Mom, I'm proud to be me, yeah."- I'm okay with the fact that I'm not a domestic goddess and that I have some wobbly bits. Yes, I give my child sugar based snacks. Yes, I heat food in the microwave in plastic bowls (aka: cancer traps). Yes, I have let Miles put my toothbrush in his mouth after I just used it. Yes, I plan Miles' bath time around American Idol, but I'm a good Mom and I am comfortable with myself. David loves me. Miles loves me and I love them.

Oh sweety you bring tears to my eyes. I love that you love our son so much. His head is quite possibly larger than mine, we should check that. If you haven't noticed by now I started a a brilliant little blog as well. I am currently at work with only 3 patients, so I have some time, I think I will call you.

So funny! I mean frosting breath? Really? I don't really like to smell my kids breath at all. Oh well. Oh and by the way. My sister is getting married this summer and she is marrying a guy named Jacob. I call him Jakey. There is already one Jakey in the family thank you very much.

Gotta love starfall!!!!

I love you- what a great mommy you are!! I loved reading that post, and it seems we have some more things in common! I LOVE Tates breath too! I think it smells a bit like fresh cut grass- yum! Also Tate's head is 100%-tile too! She's barely on the charts for weight and height, but her head is almost off the charts!! I love it! How funny are kids unproportioned bodies?! Glad you love being a mom so much- I feel like I don't hear that enough from other moms!

I can't even tell you how jubilant your posts make me. I basically plan on gettin a good chuckle everytime I read them. You make my day darling. I am a little forlorn that I'm not on your list of "blogs worth blogging" though. Also, if you didn't have uranus in the back of your throat right now I'd say let's plan on playin this Wednesday but I'm gonna pass until you are better. SO, I will call you in a week.
