To Twitter or Not To Twitter?

While I am sitting here, coming off my Starbucks high and waiting for children to fall asleep, I wonder... What is the deal with Twitter? Is it really that great? Should I join? Do I really need another thing to be addicted to on my computer?

Would anyone even follow my Twitter???

Sleep... Where are you?

Why oh why does my lovely baby boy spend 4 glorious nights sleeping 7 hour stretches only to revert back to waking every couple of hours last night? Then he decides 5am is a wonderful time to wake up for the day. Of course it is Sunday so there is nothing on TV at 5am. Here I am, 5:43am watching kids TV (on our new cable.... only really get kids tv!) with a clingy baby in my lap trying desperately to eat his toes that are hidden in his pajamas. Hubby has a parade today so I'm being nice and letting him sleep, hoping he will return the favor after the parade and let me nap. We'll see on that, not holding my breath!

Anyway, that's my totally random vent for the day. I am exhausted, but my babe is so adorable I can't help but smother him in sleepy kisses and hope he does indeed get those yummy toes. =)

Libertyville Parade 2009

Ready to go to the parade!

Navy Band Great Lakes plays in the Libertyville parade 6/20/09

Jordan in the stroller, peaking back at me.



Bagpipers. I think I liked them better than Jordan did.


Cute balloon.


Mr. Ben peaking out of the carrier. Not sure if this is before or after the little stinker pooped out of his diaper and shorts and onto me (and I didn't even know until we got back to the car!!).


Horses... There were a lot!


I think this was Jordan's favorite balloon.


Pretty girl with her American flag.

Congratulations Pittsburgh Penguins!

I am so proud to be a Pittsburgher this year. First the Steelers win their 6th superbowl. And now the Pittsburgh Penguins have brought Lord Stanley home again! Crosby, you made me cry when you got injured, but the team pulled me through the tears and made me so proud! Congratulations to Malkin getting mvp!! I am so proud of the entire team, great job!!!
