a meme and much ado about nothin'

Wow, has this vacation made me la-zee... I've spent lots of time doing pretty much nothing at all and am starting to feel like a total bump on a log, my brain is in a stupor here and I really can't think of much to post about but I'll give it my best shot.
Vacation + Me = pajamas and Wii all day...Yes, they are frog pajamas with the words "toadally cool" printed all over them, I kinda roll like that. It's a wonder my husband still finds me so irresistible! Bawhaha Why do I look like a giant compared to everything else in the living room???


And now for your viewing pleasure, quite possibly the sweetest little girl on the planet! I'm captivated by this kiddo and apparently I'm not the only one, she's becoming famous across the internet, can she tell a story or what?! When it's done you should click on her name at the bottom of the video and watch the rest of them!
