All of a sudden the baby sits up.
I suspect he’s been able to do it for awhile now, but saved it for a week he was especially terrible so I wouldn’t leave him out on the street. Smart.

This week my friend Mo and I made incredible brownie ice-cream sandwiches for book club. We made them bite-size, hoping it would stop us from eating a day’s worth of calories in one sitting (fail). I only show them to you now so that you will make them, eat them, and also be a fatty. You’re welcome.

Motley Mama is now accepting sponsors for December.
I realize talking in the third person and using the word “accepting” makes me sound like a pretentious twit, but I don’t know how else to say it.
Right now I average about 8,000+ visitors a month (I think. I don’t really get the internet).
This is not especially terrible or especially wonderful, but it’s something.
I used The Google to find out how much I should charge based on my stats.
$15 for 1 month
$30 for 3 months
You can email me for more details, because this is getting awkward.

Have you read The Hunger Games trilogy?
If so, you probably watched the newly released trailer for the movie coming out next March.
Even though books > movies, I’m still pretty excited despite some questionable casting.
Your thoughts?

And finally, this is awesome.
Happy Friday.

Inspired By E, Kim, & the many other bloggers who know what’s up on weekends.
The article you half secretly linked to in #3 made me LOL.
Same.
Oh and I loved the hunger games, but am also concerned about the movie. I don’t want it to ruin what I created in my head!
I think Katniss was cast well. I’m not sure about the others.
Agreed. Very skeptical of Haymitch and Peeta’s casting, but of course I will still go see it. I must!
Bazaar looks fun! I love the cards and the clutch. Wish I was local!
I NEED a brownie bite.
Also–that last video is also my mom.
10,000 people read your blog?! holy moly. you are my first famous friend!!
I just checked again to make sure I wasn’t making an arse of myself because I barely know how to use the internet. I actually think it’s more like 8,000. I will correct.
For “sponsoring” you should say: “If you’d like to give me money for the sake of your own monetary desires, feel free.” Right? It just flows.
Good thinking.
So awkward.
That last thing made my day.
Hooray for your little guy! Mine is still leaning really far forward :P I think it has something to do with all of his little belly fat.
Also, I LOVE that last video. Hysterical!
Waylon sits?? What a big boy. And with no boppy either!
Must try that brownie/ice cream dessert-yum.
And when you make lots of money off your blog, please buy me that little coin purse from the bazaar spectacular.
Done.
listened to the facebook mom messages. hysterical!
