MeMe #5 - I've been tagged

Claire tagged me via email...at least I think she did. I got an email listing all her information for this, so I'm going to assume she did. ;)

Five things in my fridge: Leftover chicken fajitas from Nin's birthday (won't be there for long, I promise), sour cream, cheese, Brita water pitcher, champagne from when Elizabeth was born!

Five things in my car: My keys, my purse, my Bible (we just got home from church as I type this), Elizabeth's shoes, car seats

Five things in your bag: Tampons (because I'm definitely not pregnant...phew!), lipstick, several ink pens, a tape measure, Carmex

Five things on my DVR or video player: I don't have DVR, but if I did I can tell you it would have Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Big Love, CSI, Top Chef and DIY Scrapbooking on it.

Five things in my wardrobe: Finally, I can say this and know what I'm talking about...a pair of 7 (for all mankind) jeans, Talbot's jeans, sweater twinset, a yellow linen suit, a denim dress

Happy Birthday, NinNin

Happy birthday to my silly, sweet May Miracle. As much as Elizabeth is the baby we thought we'd never have - Katherine really is the baby we thought we'd never have. A total surprise, very much a gift from God - who gave us exceedingly, abundantly above all we could ask or think when He gave us the gift of Katherine Martin. Being her mommy is a challenge as we both adjust to the growth of our family; yet it is still an absolute joy. Her smile makes me smile and her laugh makes my heart sing. She is my oh-so-brave (unless faced with a bug or she hears thunder), not-so-dainty (even when she wants to play dress-up like her prissy big sister) sugar bear. She is an adoring little sister and an adored big sister. The one who keeps Mommy and Daddy on their toes. I hope and pray that we will celebrate many, many more birthdays with her.

Another new love in my life...

Dove Caramel-filled Promises. Oh. My. Gosh. Chocolate. Caramel. Life just doesn't get any better.

It really is crack for music lovers

Okay, this is sad. Really sad. I buy a $2.38 box of sugar for my kids breakfast (Lucky Charms. They're magically delicious, you know) because it has a flipping coupon on it for a free iTunes download and my code *may* be one that wins 10 free downloads. One in five chance of that.

Hello. I bought LUCKY CHARMS so I could have a free NINETY-NINE CENT download. It's crack, I tell ya.

And another thing. I'm totally digging these Podcasts. I can listen to the Sunday Puzzle from NPR anytime I want.

iTunes - absolutely crack for music and Sunday Puzzle lovers.

I'm addicted...I tried to resist, really!

I just downloaded iTunes a few weeks ago. I've done nothing more than upload my girls' CDs and convert them to MP3 format. I have several MP3s that I've downloaded but hadn't listened to yet. And then...I did it. I opened iTunes. I went to the iTunes store. I have a wish list that is a mile long.

iTunes...crack for music lovers.
