Wrapping up 500th post party week with Pippi Longstockings
UPDATE: CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. The last counting comment is Anna Marie’s.
Well I was recently informed that I don’t post enough pictures of Baby Sister. And I know you are thinking: What? She posts pictures all the time…its the boys that are left out. Well according to my grandpa (her Great Grandpa) there just aren’t enough pictures of her to keep him satisfied! He reads my blog! 🙂
So Grandpa I’ll start today’s post off just for you. Here she is in her new Valentine’s Day hat…looking cute for her Great Grandpa!
Chris is home! He has some amazing stories and pictures….I’m talking him into doing a guest post next week. A friend of ours recently said to a few thousand people that blogs are ‘yesterday’ and they bore him. He said Twitter is the new thing. Even though you could read Chris’ Twitter account of his time in Haiti, I have a feeling you will enjoy a blog post more. And quite frankly I think my friend is just grumpy because no one reads his blog. 🙂
One of the things I had planned to post on Monday was a listing of some of the most popular posts out of my first 500. Well it is Friday and I am now getting to that. Many of you (in fact about 90% of you) started reading this blog in the last year….many more in the last couple of months. So here is a little list of some posts that have had the most popular page visits. I am going to add a category tab for this eventually so new readers can find highlights without having to read through all the Archives. So drumroll please…..a few highlights from the first 500 posts (in no particular order):
She Left Proof: Aleida’s Challenge
Our MyPublisher Albums 2009 Post One, Post Two
My Little Dresses for Africa Party
And to end this week’s giveaways I am finishing how I started…with super cute baby/kid hats. This time it is from a local gal that has the etsy shop HeartSmiles, but sorry there aren’t any boy hats in the store. You know I can’t resist a crocheted hat with a flower!
