Just so you know.....

So, I've been seeing these "thinking blog" award thingys on some of my friends' blogs lately and it has got me thinking. I just wanted you to know that I am aware that this blog is not one that challenges the mind with brain titillating musings or discussions. I just didn't want people to think that I've failed miserably in an attempt to challenge the minds of my readers. Don't get me wrong, I love the "thinking blogs"~ they are some of my favorite ones to read!. (I mean, why wouldn't they be, they're so juicy and interesting!) I started this blog knowing that I would use it almost exclusively for pictures of the kiddos primarily for my family and out of town friends that don't get to see the boys often. Needless to say I do love my boys and the cute pictures of them, but I would like to think that I do have deeper thoughts throughout my day than turtle parties, barbie cars, and Will's haircuts! (Well, at least I hope I do :-) I knew all along that I wouldn't be able to use it for a journal because I'm kind of an all- or- nothing kind of girl. You're either going to get pictures of the boys or else a detailed schedule of my......well, let's just say, probably way to much information! (see, I almost gave an example of why I don't get any deeper) If I let myself open those flood gates I'm afraid they couldn't be closed again. As some of you might know, I personally believe that almost everything in life can be referenced back to a Friend's episode. Do y'all remember that episode where Rachel's boyfriend (Bruce Willis) won't stop crying and pouring his heart out after she opens him up? Well, that's me. So, don't come here for controversial posts and deep thoughts. Because it's pictures and general updates that you're going to get; lest I become a blubbering idiot :-) So, I 've decided to invent my own "blogging awards". And I've nominated some of you!

*Jennifer: The "She finds the best music" blog award

*Kate Taylor Chapman: The "Cutest pictures" blog award

*Jessica: The "Funny" blog award

*Hollie: The "Cutest almost 2 year old" blog award(I just think Finn is so cute) not to mention the "super mom" blog award.... really!

Let me be the first to thank you for the awards! Although, mine should probably be revoked. I was recently chastised by my vet (who also happens to be my sister-in-law)that I had not updated Jack's blog. Oh well- you can't please everyone!

Thank you.
I would first like to thank itunes for the infomative updates on what's new and also to mp3Rocket for all the songs, I'd be broke without you.
Finally, to Ragan, this ones for you.
"Rubber Ducky, you're the one,
You make bathtime lots of fun,
Rubber Ducky, I'm awfully fond of you;

Woo woo be doo

Rubber Ducky, joy of joys,
When I squeeze you, you make noise!
Rubber Ducky, you're my very best friend, it's true!

Doo doo doo doo, doo doo

Every day when I
Make my way to the tubby
I find a little fella who's
Cute and yellow and chubby

Rub-a-dub-a-dubby!

Rubber Ducky, you're so fine
And I'm lucky that you're mine
Rubber ducky, I'm awfully fond of you.

Every day when I
Make my way to the tubby

Wow; are your fingers tired? Okay, so I'm changing your award. It's now "The longest blog comment ever" Oh, wait a second I think I already hold that title....Do you remember a couple of months ago on a certain blog on a contraversial topic?? :-)

But I do appreciate the little diddy, though~because that is exactly the caliber of music I was referring to!

Yeah, I'd have to agree that you do hold the title of the longest comment. ;) Mainly because mine was copy and pasted.
