2008 Recap

Kelli at There's No Place Like Home is hosting a fun blogger's recap of 2008 - just post the first sentence of the first blog post from each month this past year. Here's my little sum-up of our year. Each title is a link to the actual post itself (and I only cheated on one...because the other one, well - I only cheated once. And if you need to know which one...well, you'd best start digging through my archives, 'cause I'm not tellin'!

January: Fritzy Computer

Our laptop is having issues again...and will hopefully get fixed this time for good.

February: Playing Games


Today's assignment is pretty straightforward. Play a game with your kiddos...or your hubby...or someone!!

March: Lockdown


A certain 3 year-old is all around, and he is into everything. And by everything, I mean EVERYTHING.

April: Don't Shoot


A note for the record: My children do not get any part of their personalities from me. At all. They are all mini-Ricks. Not one single ounce can be attributed to me. *grins*

May: Mostly Strange


Why is it that a vehicle can be annoyingly choosy as to who it "acts up" to? Can you explain that to me?

June: Just in Time



This arrived in our mailbox today - not the book, but the dvd set. (And just for the record, I've neither read nor watched it since June...sigh).

July: The Chicken and the Egg


I am so avoiding "that talk" with my kids.

August: Speaking With an Accent

Over the last month, I've been reading The Secret Garden to the girls. (This was a post for Tiny Talk Tuesday)

September: Ocean Animals That Amaze

If you haven't seen this video on ocean life with David Gallo, click and watch.

October: Nature Belongs Just There...In Nature


The other morning I woke up to the sound of crickets and snuggled deep under my covers, loving the sounds of nature.

November: Things I Never Thought I Would Hear

"Sorry, Mom. I didn't mean to glue the girl's bedspread to their bed."

December: The Things We Can't See


The devotional we're using for the girls has been talking about "the things we can't see".

  2. I love this post! And I plan to go back through your archives and find out which one you cheated on...but I don't have time tonight. ;)

    Maybe I'll do one of these tomorrow on my blog. Or maybe not. We'll see what the morrow holds! But I do think it's a great idea.
