By the Numbers

When things start swirling around in my brain at a frenzied pace I know it's time to do a By the Numbers post.

697 - the number of twitter updates I've written



2.5 - the number of S'mores I ate last night



123 - the number of followers I had yesterday



122 - the number of followers I have today



2 - the number of friends camping in the campground this weekend

    Yep, I'm one of the 122 too! I'd love to hear about that call to the Sherriff--that sounds like a blog worthy event! ;-)

    Hopefully by next year I will have some money and can add some more pages to your "blog books to design"

    You are so fortunate to be living on a campground, would be my dream come true. =)

    That was a good 'by the numbers'!!!

    I never did get the stat counter that tells me total hits... eh. I don't matter. I could just multiply 365x10 and figure it out! lol

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able.

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute.

Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d...
