I'm Drawing A Blank...

So lately my blog has suffered from lack of use.  I just can't think of what to write. 

I still have my list of ideas, but I have to find it, because, like everything else I touch, I lost it. 

So this is a pretty boring entry.  I had a birthday, on the 7th, so I am now officially old.  Well not officially, but still.  I am about 4-6 years older than I thought I would be at this point in my life (childless, living with a room mate in an apartment). 

I get to baby-sit at my house now, which is awesome. 

At the end of the month I am going to visit my family out of state.  (Sorry trick-or-treaters, we won't be here to hand out candy)  Which is fun, but sad.  Fun for obvious reasons, sad because my husband works retail so he isn't allowed to have time off at the holidays.  :(  Hopefully they will head over here.

I tried making bread in my bread machine.  It turned out pretty good.  Fruit flies seem to surround it when I leave it out, which is creepy, but seemingly meaningless since no one has gotten sick and its tastes fine.  I also tried my slow-cooker, and the food was pretty delicious if I do say so myself.

On Saturday I am going to the pumpkin patch.  I'm borrowing (baby-sitting) my friends daughter to go along with me and my friend so we don't look quite as weird at the pumpkin patch.

Wow.  This was a super exciting entry.  That was an attempt at sarcasm, which never works in writing, except in dialogue, so we'll try again "Wow.  This was a super exciting entry." she said sarcastically.

Sorry.

Manipulatives Monday GIVEAWAY from Mother Goose Time - closed

Giveaway closed! Thank you so much to everyone who entered, I really appreciate it! I have excellent news!  Today is Manipulatives Monday, and Mother Goose Time  is giving away a great prize!  One lucky winner will receive TWO bags of manipulatives!  Mother Goose Time will chose the prizes, but I assure you, whatever they send will be a lot of fun for your children! Manipulatives are a big hit in our house.  Every month we get two new bags of manipulatives, and every month Little Guy asks if he can play with them before the month starts.  The answer is always no, but he tries every month anyways.  During the month we use them for the assigned activities but after we are done with the curriculum, I let him add them to his toy collection. One thing that is in almost every box is a set of counters.  These are often in the shape of animals, which are Little Guy's favorites.  They are used for a variety of activities, and are alwa...

God Made You Just Right by Jill Roman Lord - A Review

Most of the books I review are for adults, but I got a chance to review God Made You Just Right, which is a board book.  From the back of the book: You're brilliantly created, and there's no one else like you!  With simple, rhyming text and whimsical illustrations, this book is a welcome reminder for little ones that God created each of us in just the right way. I love the artwork, it is colorful and engaging, which should catch the attention of small children, but still nice to look at for adults.  The text is encouraging and has a good rhyme pattern, which I always appreciate in books for small children.  It isn't a story, but poetry telling children that God knew exactly what He was doing when He created each part of each person.  I love that it talks about the things you uniquely need to be able to fulfill God's plan for you. At the end of the book is Jeremiah 29:11, which gives scriptural support to the rest of the book.  My only...
