News from Emma (and the others)

She has just declared that we can’t have school today because it is Mommy’s birthday.
This is right up there with her being bouncy because of her Tigger undies.

ETA: Sarah just came in (10:55) and wished me a happy birthday. I said thank you. Then she said, “You’re 35!”
“Thanks for the reminder,” I said.
“You’re 35!” she said agian.
“Shut up now…” I said.
“You’re 35!”
“Let’s get the shovel,” said Meaghan.

A quiz for me on my birthday

HASH(0x8a2ce0c)
You are Andie Walsh (from Pretty In Pink)!
Misunderstood and full of angst, you are
intelligent, talented and will probably go on
to do great things…once you’re out of the
hell of high school.

Holy Crap! We’re in the Big Time, Martha.

I was just checking my stats because I totally went over bandwidth this month (but it’s spread over our other sites, so it averages out. Phew!). Last May, I was around 2200 visits per month. When Addison had his accident, that month we spiked up to 3,500 visitors. Last month I got up to 5,000. Five THOUSAND! Visits! The page views were up over 8,500. My average is well over 100 visits a day, with page views twice that. Which it would be when you leave a comment. And I tell it to ignore me!

A good chunk is still due to this article on how to blog. (Thanks, Mara, I owe you email big time. :) )

Holy Jumpin’s!

Just so you know

(for the non-techy people, WordPress & Matt are in the middle of a big ol’ Internet broo-hah. Whatever, I love WordPress.)

Emma’s photo gallery

Remember when I said Emma wanted a website? Here’s her photoblog. I’m not getting her a domain yet, though.

(She said she wants EmmaElizabeth dot com. No, It’s not a joke.)

So go look at some of her photos. Comments are disabled in her gallery.
