Monday Morning Thoughts
Pic of the Day ~ Becca ~
Becca has a brand new favorite show, although the Wonder Pets are still number one, with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse a close second, she has discovered the cute Handy Manny. Every time we have watched it, I kept thinking to myself “Self that voice sure sounds like Fez from That 70’s Show”. Then over the weekend J too had the same thoughts. So I went to the ever trusty Wikipedia to see. Yup, good old Wilmer Valderrama, is entertaining my toddler. He really does a great job with the voice and Becca knows most of her tools now (Grandpa M will be so proud!)
Ok for real I saw this list and I was flabbergasted. C’Net UK created a list of the Top Ten Girl Geeks. I mean are they for real or are they mocking us geek girls? I was annoyed when they included Lisa Simpson, but Paris Hilton? It is cool that she plays on her PSP but a geek!?! I would think there are better girl geeks out there! I think, girl geeks like myself can be better represented, what do you think?
I designed a banner for another blogger and was compensated for it. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside that someone thinks my work is worthy of a little something! Go ahead and take a peek at A Crack N’ Life, leave her a “Oh MY! Your blog is BEAUTIFUL” comment for me! I do so adore the design challenges, now if I could only get the nerve up to start a business *blush* some day … maybe …. I also made a forum banner for my Knitting Guru as a trade for some diapers. I have not heard back yet if she likes it (it is a first draft), however I am loving the work! If she approves and does not mind I will show you what I created. I offer my services for anyone looking for a makeover. I create the graphics myself (unless otherwise requested) and so far it has been a swap of services or a small fee.
Becca’s cold is still monstrous. We were suppose to go to the park today with some other kids, but it is all damp and cool out, so we are skipping that. I have some errands to run so we may do that quickly then snuggle up back at home.
Tomorrow we are all going to see the OB. I am so excited to hear Little Bear’s heartbeat again. The baby has been so active in there! We will get the results of the sugar test then. I scored with Freecycle the other night. A lady has posted a bouncey seat, seriously it looks new and is the Fisher Price Ocean Aquarium one! w00t! December 15, seems so far away! I can hardly wait to find out if it is a boy or a girl.
Hey, nice banner! You should definitely start a business. You can even start small with just a page from this blog with some rates on it.
I can’t wait to find out if it’s a boy or a girl, so I can hardly imagine how you feel!
Whoo hoo Freecycle. I haven’t gone there yet to get anything…I am curious as heck though.
Your artwork is wonderful…You should totally get paid for it. You should start a side thing…And get some income for it. I’d do it if I knew how to do what you do on the computer. Besides…You deserve it.
That’s a gorgeous picture of Becca by the way. She’s a gorgeous little girl.
You are so good at the designing and at the coding. You should TOTAL get paid for it and start a small business.
Web site design looks great, yours & the other lady’s. You’re so talented!!!
Aww… poor becca, I hope she feels better soon.
Awesome coolness on the bouncy chair!!!
I can’t believe you’re already 19w along!!!
I think you’re having a boy, I had a dream the other night. I can’t wait to find out if I’m right. It’s almost as it’s me again, waiting to find out the sex of my baby, lol!!!
Stopped by to see your Mickey handy work and left a comment attesting to your billiance! Hope that Becca is feeling better soon.
what a gorgeous pic of Becca! I just went over to check out the banner you did and it looks great! You should seriously think about starting your own business! You could do it and you are so talented!
I got your card in the mail today - wow you are way ahead of me!! Thanks!
Thanks for the banner. People are visiting and seem to like it a lot! Thanks again.
Those are great Chelle, I love your designs!!!
I cant wait for Dec 15th too. I think we should have a vote or something! I already have my vote in my head
I know it feels like a long time away but time will fly by! I am so excited for you guys, I remember the buzz of waiting to find out if J was a boy or a girl!! I love your blog designs, I am wondering if there is any way I would be able to compensate you from Japan for designing something for me!? Hello Kitty stuff for Becca!?! Seriously, i wonder if there would be any way to work it!?!
ooo! I would so love to have you make over my blog. I am pretty lame with the do it your self stuff.
I’ve been wondering for a while if I could pay you to pimp my blog. I’m a little over my black on black on black (remember that shoe add, ‘do you got any blacker?’) I’ll email you and we can talk turkey. You SO should set up a blog graphic business!
Wow wow wow… another new design… It’s cool, Chelle. I thought you already started the business. You surely must start it, darling.
Good on you…great idea making a lil business out of it, you definately have the ability and flair for it
Love the banner!
We had the same seat, and Sophia didn’t like it really until she was a few months old. After that, it was a GOD SEND. So I guess what I’m saying is don’t give up if at first your babe doesn’t like it. Because once he or she does, GOD SEND.
Seriously how can Marie Curie and Paris Hilton be on the same list? That’s insanity!
I hope Becca feels better soon.
Handy Mandy has become a familiar show around here too..he and Diego have my little one’s heart!!
Poor Becca! By the way, I’m totally adoring this layout. VERY cute. I’m all about snowmans!
And, Hello? Handy Manny totally rawks!
I hesitated to ask you with you being pregnant and all, but I would really love a new look. Hope that we can work something out!
