Scot made me promise not to buy it, but I got a one week pass on that so I could buy the issue with the Chapman's in it next week. Is it horribly pathetic to admit I'm already looking forward to it?Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327872107826129535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148039363496292683.post-32110687257850289472008-08-08T17:21:00.000-06:002008-08-08T17:21:00.000-06:00You name a song by the Wiggles and I can sing it. ...You name a song by the Wiggles and I can sing it. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your honesty; it's encouraging to see that even a Supermom like you is actually human :)<BR/><BR/>"Fruit salad, yummy, yummy..."

There isn't a mama out there that doesn't need something mindless and pointless to take her mind off their CRAZY SCREAMING BOY every once in awhile!!!

I think I've read about ten this week during my 'alone' time! <BR/><BR/>As for the videos....I think kids need some down time too when they can just chill and take it in as well. Everything in moderation, right?!Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15444310995105378298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148039363496292683.post-59594660703994903672008-08-08T14:05:00.000-06:002008-08-08T14:05:00.000-06:00Can I just say how much you ROCK?

THE WIGGLES ARE COOL!<BR/>VEGGIE TALES are cool,too!Go buy some of them..King George and the Ducky , Little Joe , and Dave and the Giant Pickle are the best ones! <BR/>Mothers have to have mindless down time just like everyone else. Have you ever taken a piece of paper and written down everything you do and are responsible for in a single day? No? Try it.. You are a cook, house keeper, chauffer, teacher,personal shopper, nurse,dietician,therapist,party planner,gardener,bookkeeper, accountant,and thanks to blogging- a micro-celebrity!<BR/>Everyone in that bookstore(who has kids) knows exactly what it feels like to do the same thing you were doing. My kids RUN to the Thomas Tank Engine table! and I let them...Just as soon as I find something to read and get a cup of coffee! :)Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08847425374212175113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148039363496292683.post-12679966097807036772008-08-08T12:29:00.000-06:002008-08-08T12:29:00.000-06:00oh, yes. the escape of magazines about nothingnes...oh, yes. the escape of magazines about nothingness. i find it online and even without tv, it is amazing (and sad) how much i can keep up with celebrity gossip. <BR/><BR/>as for this exact moment....i need something stronger. i am about to slam my head into the wall. ainsley has thrown tantrum after tantrum today with full out-of-control hysterics. i have never seen anything like it and admittedly, it made me a little out-of-control myself. absolutely nothing does the trick this time - well, i have not considered bribing since there is no way i am giving in! but, as of now, she is starting to go back to sleep on the little kids couch beside me (had to remove her from the kids' room so i didn't have two crazy people on my hands today.) let's hope the day gets better.<BR/><BR/>and, funny thing about the wiggles. we own one from probably 10 years ago - or whenever they first came out - and ainsley likes it, however i rarely turn it on (like you). recently a friend called and asked how my day was going and all i had to say was "well, the wiggles are on" and she knew it was one of those days!<BR/><BR/>power to the single mamas - don't have a clue how they do it!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16963009348615496805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148039363496292683.post-71897937469070351982008-08-08T12:11:00.000-06:002008-08-08T12:11:00.000-06:00Ah, the celebrity magazines are a pleasure of mine...Ah, the celebrity magazines are a pleasure of mine as well! Every kid needs to have some video time sometimes. The Wiggles dancing and signing count as cultural time...right?
