I am the mother of a teenager

Lilly and I went for a playdate this week. As her little friend's mother was showing her a little toy that lights up, my little 3-year-old turned to me and said,

"Wow. That is so cool."

Some of Lilly's other favorite expressions include,

"Just chill for a sec."

"Chill, baby, baby"

and my all time favorite,

"IT'S NOT FAIR!"

We hope that she is not planning to start driving anytime soon.

I have also been meaning to post pictures, but the battery in our camera broke or something, I don't know what happened. Anyway, we finally got a new one and so I will post some pics of Lilly in her Halloween costume.

Why do they make it so easy for you at Amazon.com?

This is a rave/complaint about the ease at which you can purchase items from Amazon.com. All you need to do is type in just the teeniest bit of information about what you are looking for and it quickly appears. Their search engine must be designed by rocket scientists. Once you are viewing your itew, they then give you a list of all the other things you might enjoy. And guess, what? They are all definitely things you would enjoy! Once you have a few items, checkout is so easy, you don't even have to put in your credit card. In fact, I don't even remember that I told them to use this credit card. They just saved it. This is really really awesome or incredibly invasive.
