Merrie Monday...Just Made of Awesome!!!

Mood: Excited (really, super excited!)

What I'm Watching: TMZ (have to catch up on my celeb gossip!)

Monday or not, today was just made of win. I mean like epic win!!!

First, I logged on to my Twitter account this morning to find a message from Rhonda Stapleton, super cool author of "Stupid Cupid" and all around awesome blogger, telling me I'd won her "Flirting With Disaster" contest. My prizes? A signed copy of Flirting With Disaster (which I totally wanted because I've read Stupid Cupid and can't wait to read the next installment) and, as if that weren't enough, I'm lucky enough to get a $50 gift card to the book store of my choice (Barnes and Noble in case anyone is wondering). So, I'm all totally Squeeeeeeeeee!!!!! I never win anything and this is made of nothing but amazing win!!

Then, another amazing gift in the form of my new little neice!!!! Finally, after literally a month of labor, the doctor finally conceeded and broke my sister's water. An hour later? We had a brand new addition to our family.

Happy Birthday Madelyn Sue!!! She weighed 7 lbs 2 ozs and was 18 inches long. Mom and baby are both doing well.

  1. Yay! Glad you had an epic win. It has been SUCH a long winter, huh? Whatcha gonna buy at B&N??

    Your niece is a total cutie. Congrats, proud Aunt Duh. ;-) I love that story about your nephews. It is a fun nickname. One of my nephews used to call me Aunt Whirl. Isn't that awesome? We would pretend to be in kung-fu movies when he was little. Now he's 17. Yikes.

  4. @Frankie: I'm a bit biased, but I do think she's a little bit of precious. :)

    @Laurel: Thanks!!! And yes, they still call me Aunt Duh...but I think it's so cute. It's probably going to be a sad day for me when they all finally learn to properly pronounce my name. Although I have to admit, Aunt Whirl is way cooler...and I know that they grow up way too fast.

    @Mary: Thanks!! I don't believe I've ever been so excited on a Monday. :)

    @Jmartin: That's the big question...I got the e-certificate today and now I get to shop...hmmm...I'm open to suggestions. :)
