Happy Grandparent's Day

Happy Grandparent's Day!

Normally I would be making and sending a new scrapbook page for the Grandparents to put in the album I gave them....ummm yeah, it kind of slipped away from me this year. However, considering we'll be having another baby in November (in which case, the Grandparent's also get the "new baby" page) I think, we'll just wait till Christmas and then I'll give you both. (so long as you don't mind) I know that tends to be my habit with my parents as I"m always worried about mailing a 12x12 sheet anyway...and Justin's side...well you're moving so I figured hunting down a photo album probably wasn't the smartest thing right now.

So yeah, Christmas.... you'll get your 2012 Grandkids page and Baby #4's page.

For now, here's a recap of this last year (from Sept - Sept)

Out of the Mouths of Bloggers

I've seen similar "You know You're a Blogger..." lists before and naturally they always line up pretty well. To give you a glimpse into my blogging life (and the life my family now enjoys/tolerates) I thought I'd write one of my own.

Things You'll Hear The Blogger in Me Say:

"Dinner will be done once I take a picture"

"We need _____, who should I pitch to?"

"No I didn't get all this stuff for free, I worked for it."

"Hold on, I've got to update the blog/facebook/twitter/pinterest."

"How'd that taste? Does it need something? Is it blog worthy yet?"

"No you can't actually use this product right now, I just need you to look like you are using it for the picture."

"Can you guys just look happy for this blog photo? I know we've taken 50 pictures already but none of them are just right....just one more...really."

"No package? Where are those review products?"

"I love ____. I did a review for them and they are really great. You should get some, here's my affiliate link."

"Sorry you can't wear that diaper yet, I need to take clean pictures of it before we take the action shots."

I'm sure there are tons of other horrid blogger quotes that I say... these are just some of the big ones. Keep in mind that there's a good side to being a blogging family too... like free stuff. I mean I won't need to buy anything for baby #4 (not a new car seat, not new diapers, etc) because of my blogging. So there's good and bad...and even the bad I don't think is too horrible.

Quotable Logan

Logan is eating an orange in this picture in case you are wondering.

I think it's safe to say that my kids are notorious for saying some ridiculous stuff. The other day, Logan said something rather funny... I didn't think it was ALL that funny...but Justin literally laughed out loud (not a common occurrence) and has since proceeded to laugh about it at least 3 times over the course of the last few days. So it must be good.

Logan: "I don't know why it stinks but I do know you farted, Ransom."
