My parents are in town to visit. Read: I have not changed a diaper all week because my mom finds it enjoyable. Totally Huck-Finned her on that one.

Breaking news! Ellen learned to drink from a straw! I didn’t want to keep you in the dark on that one.
I reached 100 likes on Facebook. I am pretty excited about it. Thanks to all my wonderful fans :)
Newsflash: Catholics are super in favor of all Americans having affordable and fantastic healthcare. We love that idea! It saves lives and keeps people healthy…something everyone deserves.
Newsflash: We do not support healthcare that also kills unborn children and forces people to participate in activity that they find morally objective.
Let’s get those things straight. Ok? Thanks.
Oh, and I have a serious question for some of you: Why do you feel it is ok to support a healthcare plan that tramples on another’s beliefs? When you fight so hard for equal rights, why does that not extend to Catholics? Like I said, this is a serious question I am looking for answers to. Leave a comment, please.
Getting things ready for Ellen’s polka dot party next month!
This week I made two blankets, a scrapbook kit, party invitations, three shirts and painted my toenails. Big thanks to Mama and Papa Parker on that. Those activities would take me approximately one year and 360 days without your help. Crawlsy keeps me busy.
Sorry these aren’t incredibly interesting this week. I have been a lazy piece this week because I have been dumping all parental responsibilities onto my parentals and not feeling guilty one iota. Nope.
For more Quick Takes, visit Jen!

There’s no way you are planning a birthday party for Ellen!!! Has it really been a year since that marathon birth?
Wish I understood what was going on with some of the prevailing thoughts about the healthcare issue, but I’m still trying to wrap my brain around it myself. Sending up lots of prayers for our country, our leadership, and our voters!
On a lighter note, *love* the idea of a polka dot party. Looks like you are off to a great start!
