091027 Freebie & Sales

Thanks, Karen!! Much apprec your continued visits & comments! :)
Grace, missing you.... Hope you're having fun on your seaside trip? :)

Still havent managed to catch up all the blogs. I got side-tracked as usual. First, I just remembered that I'd done 2 LOs for my CT last month which I wanted to post here & when I went looking for the links from my gallery, I was horrified to realise that I HADN'T uploaded them at all. This was just before my trip home & I'd rushed to get them done on time but I must've been distracted while uploading & it never got done. And here I had been patting myself on the back for finally getting them up on time! Anyway, I quickly uploaded them before I forget again. I suck!

This photo's absolutely horrible but I only have a few from my pregnancy. Wish I'd thought to take tummy shots or at least a photo every month.

Following that (actually during that too!) was the usual distraction, Mac :) He made a 'remote control' from his magnetic blocks & asked me to play. I *think* we're enacting an imaginary video game, me on the controller & him manipulating the 'fighters' Megatron & Bumblebee. That game took a little while :) I think Bumblebee won but it's hard to tell. Mac's games are a little like dreams - you start doing one thing in one place & then suddenly you're doing something else somewhere else :D


Sigh, I have a messy child! I used to tidy up a few times a day, now I leave it till the end of the day & sometimes even 2 days. He would clean up when asked but since his idea of cleaning up is picking up ONE item & then go back to play again & then pick up another item when asked again, repeat ad-nauseum, I've given up.


It's hard to get too mad with him though when I get moments like this.
"Mama, look! I'm Megatron. But I'm not the bad Megatron. I'm a good Megatron. I'm a love-er, kiss-er, hug-er, sayang-er Megatron" [punctuating each description with action :D)

btw, for those who don't know, Megatron & Bumblebee are Transformers. And Mac's obviously crazy about them :D

Girl, it is so nice to be missed! Thanks for making me feel special. Those pictures of Mr. Mac are too darn cute!! He has such a great imagination. I bet he could spend hours playing, and as for that room...believe me when I tell you one day you will miss that mess!! Thanks for the great list. I am off to see all the goodies.
Big Hugs,
Grace

Hey! Just wanted to tell you ( again) how nice and fun it is to come to your site. I get my coffee and go to your site and it's like my birthday! haha I don't know how you do it. I love seeing your pics to, Mac is so cute and I think that is an adorable picture of you pregnant.. You should heed the post a few days ago and ask someone to always take pics of you with your family, you'll be glad you did,it goes too fast!
