I dedicate this award to...

... my sassy and smart little girl. Without whom my life would be really calm, restful, and predictable. I would have nothing at all to write about!

MamaToots, a fellow blogger and mastermind behind ToddleToots included me in this award today. I am honored, and I graciously accept the badge. If you haven't visited Toddle Toots yet, be sure to check it out. The blog is truly adorable - and unique too! It's a very interactive blog where readers submit their own funny and cute "toots" from their kids. "Kids say the darndest things", right? Well, when yours surprise you or make you break into a fit of giggles, send it in to MamaToots! She'll share it and make others laugh along with you.

There are some rules that go along with this award:

1. You have to Thank the person who awarded you and link them back in your post.
Thank you, MamaToots from ToddleToots!

2. Tell everyone 7 random facts about yourself.

(1-3) I am a Nook reader, an iPhone user, and a family vacation junkie.

(4-5) I could eat pasta every day and must exert extreme willpower not to visit our entirely too-convenient Dunkin Donuts daily. 

(6) Back in the day, I saw Spaceballs and The Princess Bride at least 9 times each.

(7) These days, I can't even count how many times I've seen A Bug's Life, Monsters Inc., and Toy Story 3.

3. Pass the award on to 10 new bloggers.

4. Contact each blogger and let them know you’ve passed the award on to them, and let the “giver” know you accept the award.

Here are some blogs I have saved in my favorites. These always bring a smile or a thoughtful pause to my day:

Parenting By Dummies

Tough Cookie Mommy

Amber Page Writes

A Belle, a Bean, & a Chicago Dog

Adventures of a Wee Mason Man

(I swear the Animal Kingdom day 2 of our vacation is coming soon... it's been a hectic weekend! Bear with me one more day.)
