If you loved Neil Patrick Harris in Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog (and who didn't?), this is possibly just as awesome. Embedding is disabled but you can see it on YouTube. Neil Patrick Harris as the Shoe Fairy on Sesame Street.

Soooooooo funny. :)

Jamie really, really amazes me sometimes. He's so interested in space. I went into the bedroom to fold clothes a few minutes ago and found this (amazingly detailed) drawing on the floor. Notice how Uranus' rings are even going the correct way! He's a pretty awesome kid. :)


In case you're not sure, the labels are Sun (with solar flares!), M(ercury), V(enus), E(arth), M(ars), A(steroid Belt), J(upiter), S(aturn), U(ranus), N(eptune), P(luto), K(uiper Belt).

Ok so I don't normally do this sort of thing, but this is for a good cause because this little munchkin is my cousin. :) If you feel so inclined, can you please go to http://www.parents.com/app/sharemy/photoDetails.jsp?photoId=214701243 and rate the picture of the cute little baby there? That's my cousin John's son Mitchell, he'll be 2 in July. I happen to think he's pretty darn cute even without being biased. ;) They've entered him in the Parents Cover Model Search contest and the top 5 finishers get a free trip to NYC. No pressure but you know, if you feel like it, go check out his picture. :)

Jamie lost tooth number 4 today. He's been working on this one for a while and it's been *really* loose all week, so we were both very glad when it came out! :)

I own an embarrassing number of shoes, but as for what I actually *wear*, um. I can't recall the last time I stepped foot out of the house in anything but my Crocs. I have sneakers that I wear when it's really cold (although I'm thinking of getting some of those lined Crocs for next winter, heh) and I used to wear Birkenstocks all the time but not so much anymore--Crocs are cheaper and you don't have to freak out if you get them wet. I'm thinking I'll be wearing them all summer as well, I might spring for a pair of the Crocs sandals too.

I just did a very small friends cut. 99% of the people that were cut were people that did not have me friended anyway, so I doubt they will even notice. :) Best wishes to those who were cut, and if I did cut you in error, let me know and we can talk about it. :)

Watch this if you haven't seen it already. A public school choir covers "Flying Dutchman" by Tori Amos. One of my favorite songs anyway, and they do a really good job. If you like it, you can check out their blog at http://ps22chorus.blogspot.com/ to see more. :)

This has to be one of the sweetest things I've seen. If you need to smile this morning, check out this video. :)

Background: a couple raises a lion from a cub until he becomes too big for them to care for. They then release him into the wild. This is what happened a year later.

Finally after 3 months we have missing tooth number 3! It's seriously been loose since before Christmas. :) I can already see the new tooth poking through in the hole so I can't imagine it'll be too long coming in.

You're not seeing things. I have bangs again. :)

There are a couple additional pics on Flickr showing the zigzag part and a frontal shot, but the frontal shot turned out pink for some reason so I didn't post it here.

Next up, new color. It needs to be darker.

Dinner tonight is Pioneer Woman's Chicken Spaghetti. Mmm Mmm Good! :)

Thought you guys might enjoy a picture of Jamie all dressed up for Christmas dinner. We're having our "Christmas feast" tonight at my mom's, all my cousins will be there with their babies. It should be a madhouse. :)

This is as of this afternoon--I've just about finished that second tree by now.

I took this yesterday but forgot to post it. If you care enough, go to Flickr where there is a closeup of the new section as well. :) I've done more since this, just not enough to make it worth while posting. :)

The picture is a bit blurry and I apologize. I'll try to get a better one tomorrow. This is bands one and two done. :)

Please ignore my messy living room! :)
