I was warned. Everyone told me that N would seem SO MUCH OLDER when B arrived. I thought 'of course!', but I had no idea how much older she would seem. DH & I were watching a video of N at her Christmas program in December - even then she seemed so much younger than she does now! All of a sudden, instead of wanting to watch cartoons (except cartoon movies) - she asks to watch one of 4 shows "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody", "Hannah Montana", "That's So Raven" or "Drake and Josh". She's only 5 - shouldn't she still be into cartoons yet? Her favorite song happens to be "Girlfriend" by Avril Levigne (I'm sure that's spelled wrong but it's late and I have to work tomorrow so I don't feel like looking it up.) She constantly wants to watch the video on YouTube. She also has a favorite radio station and loves to listen to it while she's taking a bath - it's a Top 40 station. The poses and faces she makes at us - I keep thinking those should be waiting a few more years at least! The girl is also obsessed with cell phones - in spite of or maybe because of the fact we don't have one. My SIL gave her one of her old ones to play with. She's had it since December and played with it alot. Sunday she was pretending to talk on it - and all of a sudden I heard a voice coming from it! SOMEHOW this phone that hasn't been activated in a few years, and hasn't been plugged in since we've had it - and I'm sure not since the service was transferred to a new phone, was WORKING. Two battery bars and a recording on the other end. I mean, I'm sure there was no service - but the power baffled me so I asked N how she got it working. She looked at me like I was an idiot, shurgged and as if this is how you power up anything, simply said "I jammed a screwdriver in it".
I should add a note on B. She had her two month checkup today. She's 10lbs 12ozs and 22" long. Dr. said she's perfect.
A quick note to those of you who have moved to blogspot. I AM reading the blogs and looking at the photos (and loving them:), but for whatever reason, I haven't been able to post comments on those anymore. I used to be able to - and now it will always bring me to a blank white page. So I just wanted you all to know I'm not just ignoring them:)
Reality Roundup:
Dirty Jobs: Oh yes - Mike Rowe is on my list too! LOVE HIM!
Deadliest Catch: I couldn't believe how shook up Captain Johnathan Hillstrand of the Time Bandit was shook up when they pulled that guy out of the water. He was shaking, and it didn't even seem that he knew the guy personally. They were Heroes!
American Idol: Loved Blake's version of 'Imagine'. IMHO - it's time for Chris to go home!!!
Dancing with the Stars: OK. I will now admit it. I have a complete crush on Joey Fatone. Can't help it. Am I the only one???
Celebrity Fit Club: Does anyone else watch? That show is always such a train wreck that I can't bear to miss an episode! Dustin Diamond looks like he's gonna be a complete jackass! After hearing about his nasty video - I can't stand to look at him - ICK! I don't watch the Tonight Show - but Ross seems really funny!!! Maureen McCormick sounds totally humble. Watching her and her daughter school shopping on E! years ago was one of the things that inspired N's name. It should be an interesting season!
