One more thing...

So I've been cruising around the blog world and I've stumbled upon this pretty cool thing. It's called the Ultimate Blog Party. (Click on the button to the left to get linked up and see what it's all about.) Yeah, just what I need, a bunch more blogs to read... but it's really fun.

If you've found me through the Party... here's a bit about me. I am a 36 year old stay at home mom. I have two kids with one on the way (from China that is.) I'm done being pregnant and thought I should let some Chinese lady do it for me this time. Quinn was born with a cleft lip and is three months older than our youngest son, Turner. Olivia is 3 and is a Diva with a capital D.

I was a journalism major many moons ago and have found blogging a great creative outlet. It has also helped me to put a positive and fun spin on days that are a bit less than those two things. It has helped me laugh at the quirky, appreciate the mundane and channel my frustrations to a more productive place. I hope it will be a fun record of our lives as my children get bigger.

Blog writing has been super fun, and as far as I know, my family and good friends check in from time to time and that's about all I can ask for. Making "new friends" would just be an added bonus. Blog reading is WAY more fun than reality tv and its embarrassing that I know more about strangers than I do about some of my close friends.

Oh, and the EEK... I have a blog. EEK are my initials and back when I started blogging I didn't know that you should really put some effort into naming it. Now I'm stuck. Oh well!

As part of the party we are suppose to post which 3 items we would like to win, so here are mine:
# 58 A Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer

#60 Pepsi Tote full of Loot

#88 $40 gift certificate to Carabba's Italian Grille

I wouldn't mind winning # 91,118 and 121.

Stop by and follow directions for your chance to win too!
