Officially Entered

Stoli is officially entered into the Bissell contest and voting begins TOMORROW!! Unfortunately, I had to make an executive decision and decide which picture to enter (I found the contest last minute and wanted to make sure I did not miss the deadline, so I entered Stoli at lunch, prior to receiving any comments). Sorry to disappoint, but I decided to go with picture #3,

This picture was chosen because after looking at the winners from previous weeks, who have advanced to the finals, I noticed a common factor- they all had big smiles. So while Stoli looks very proud and dignified in his new coat picture (#4), I felt that this picture was the best showcase of his dynamic smile!

I will be posting a link tomorrow that will lead you right to Stoli's picture. All you have to do to vote is enter your name and email address. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help Stoli advance to the finals by forwarding on the link to EVERYONE in your address books!!! Stoli needs your help!

On a side note, I just got back last night from spending the weekend with little B. Aside from the 2 EXPLOSIVE poopy diapers**, we had a fun time together. Kids sure are a lot of work, it is weird having something totally depend on you for EVERYTHING!! Not to mention every little noise in the night wakes me from my usual deep sleep, resulting in a quick look at the awesome video monitor to make sure everything is okay. This parenting thing is tough and to think I was only on duty for 36 hours!!


** Little B. sure does like his diaper changed, he smiles the whole time and I swear the smile he made for poopy diapers was more of a "haha, you like that one? Gotcha!" I mean I am talking a 10 wipe diaper here! It was soooo gross, and I definitely gagged and didn't know if I was going to make it!
