Skype . . . iPhone Style!

I have officially figured out how to Skype on the my iPhone! Yay, me!! I’m a little slow. So here’s hoping this will open more opportunities to Skype with Nana, we hope. Maybe if they create App that adds more hours to your day, that might help.

And, . . . okay, so now, just maybe, I take back a couple of the mean things I have said about this crazy little Apple.

I Really Do Learn Something New [Almost] Everyday

So neat to learn today I can blog from my phone!! I like to think this is going to change my blogging-life as I know it, but I'm still missing one thing . . . time!

But in the mean, I sure hope this results in at least a few more entries of family milestones and memories, more (though poor quality) pictures and additional random babblings. Be warned . . . but not too scared!

My Favorite 2011 Super Bowl Commercial

Summer Camp and Record Bowls

Charity's enjoying her days at summer camp. Today the older students put on a carnival for the younger ones.

She came home with pink hair and a purple flower on her face. She loved it!

I came home with a nifty bowl one of my co-workers made. She discovered you could create a bowl out of a record by simply heating it in the oven. I'm not sure all the specifics, but she found it in a book. Thought it was pretty cool! Thank you, Sarah!!

Baby Silkies

If you're looking for the perfect baby gift, look no further. I'm happy to introduce you to the Baby's Silkie.

Naomi, the creator of these snuggly blankies, and I attended high school together. When we recently reconnected and I discovered she had this business, I knew this was where I was headed for my next shower gift!! And I'm glad I did.

When I found out my little sister, Katie, was pregnant, I couldn't wait to order her one. There are sooooo many options for colors and fabrics. Ordering even's fun! I optioned for Jungle Animals. Too cute!! And then the monogramming!! You've got to love that. Anything monogrammed makes it even more special. I know Raistlin will love his!!

Thank you, Naomi, for the perfect gift!! Now, everyone else go get all the little babies you know one: www.babyssilkie.com!
