1. Pepto-Bismol is so yummy to me, yet the Pepto-Bismol tablets are the most disgusting things I can imagine.
2. 2012 will go down in history as the year of the swimming lessons. Three times a week, that's where I'll be.
3. I made homemade applesauce on Sunday with the kids. They said it was "too spicy" (I may have gone overboard with cinnamon), but I find it delicious.
4. I fell asleep last night on top of the duvet with just a light, knit blanket on me lying sideways across the bed. When my husband came home, he just slept on the sofa so as not to move me, but I slept miserably because I was freezing and never thought to climb under the duvet.
5. Our house smells funky right now. A bit like trash.
6. I thought I was going to die this weekend from an elk attack. It took about four hours for my arms to stop shaking.
7. I cannot handle it when I am trying to promote beautifully illustrated, wonderful books that might also be award winners, but all my children want to buy are Barbie Princess books, Toy Story books, and books that have stickers inside. Cannot handle it.
8. Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team is back on! I really do get so excited.
9. There are twin girls in R's class this year, and he is quite a smitten kitten. He talks about them all the time.
10. Every time I find something cute for R at BabyGap, I notice the skull on it. Why must they put skulls on everything?

11. The Head and The Heart. Buy their album. So good.
