Some very cool stuff happened this week including two huge shout-outs in the Huffington Post. They picked up my letter to Jessica Simpson and included me in their Best Mom and Dad Blogs of the Week(!).
I'm feeling pretty fancy, right about now.
In Mazzy news, she looked cute as ever (see above), put her terrible twos on hold (thank god), and did many impressive things— like while she was playing with a bunch of change on the table at a restaurant, suddenly she announced, "I made Mickey Mouse!"
That she did.
What else happened in the past two weeks besides Mazzy being accepted into MENSA?
• Mazzy found out Mike's a murderer
• I lost my shit on Grey's Anatomy
• We learned toddlers suck at seduction
• Mazzy sold overpriced poop in a box
• Someone got buried in a Hello Kitty casket
• Three kids paid tribute to the Beastie Boys
• One kid air drummed to Nirvana
• Mazzy prepared her Oscar acceptance speech
• We all identified with Jessica Simpson
• Dr. B taught Magical Toddler Control Voodoo
And, last but not least, I announced a giveaway for ten $60 gift credits to UrbanSitter.com. If free babysitting is something you might enjoy, you can still enter here.
If you are not a Mommy Shorts facebook fan (and why the hell not???), here is one of the gems you missed this week…
I can take no credit for writing it, but the sheer amount of likes and shares it generated, goes a long way in saying how many of you have read/are reading this fantastically horrible trilogy.
I'm at the end of Book #3 myself and CANNOT WAIT for it to be over. I feel like I've had a real life love affair with Christain Grey and now I'm at the part where the sex is boring and I'm itching for some plot points.
I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.
But if you spend it making a Greybie, please don't name it Anastasia, okay?

Sound like a great week, superstar:)
Just finished the trilogy…. Let’s just say if I wasn’t already pregnant… Imagine mixing the effect of those books with pregnancy hormones… It’s been fun, hubby is glad I’ve finished the books too…
Well deserved nods my friend, well deserved!
Happy Weekend!
You ARE fancy!
Congrats again- it was a wonderful post. Now I only hope she doesn’t turn out to be crazytown going all feeding her kid from her mouth or writing her own parenting series of books.
Because the world needs another celeb parenting guru like we need a another 50 shades book. (How DID you read them all?). Or, maybe that 50 Shades lady can write a parenting series? Win-win!
Congrats on all the shout outs! I’m debating starting the third one. I blame the pregnancy hormones for even allowing me to read such crap in the first place. Bigger problem? My daughter’s name is Anna, so it’s sort of painful for me to read about Christian saying “Oh, Ana” in that inner-goddess-seducing way.
LOL on the new gen of grey babies. I’m not going to be reading that book, so pls tell me how it ends :). Plus, posted comments on both your Huff Post features. Congrats!
Whoa!Huffington Post,you rock!
You do indeed rock.
(Even if your name isn’t Anastasia.)
Congrats on being mentioned by the Huffington Post, that’s pretty awesome. You are fancy!
Congrats on the shoutouts. You are indeed fancy! Sent you an email last week. I know how busy you must be but am curious as to if you recieved it.
