Facebook

So Ted and I both took the plunge this week and signed up for facebook. My friend Heather has been asking me to do this for a while and she sent me a direct invitation this week. So on Tuesday night I signed up. My goodness, everyone is on there. As usual, I am behind the times! What amazed me is that within 30 minutes not only I had tagged a number of people that I knew, people were finding me! People who I haven't talked with in years! It made me really stop and think that one's network is a lot bigger than they think it is. I also really like the fact that there's some security. Any old Joe Schmo can't find me and decide their going to start talking to me, I have to give them permission first. You have to confim everything before it will show up on someone's page, I even got a email that said "Ted Coberly says that you and him are married. You need to confirm this." That gave me a chuckle.

Its Friday for me! And I am looking forward to a four day weekend. Not much planned, just relaxing and catching up on some stuff around the house.

Katherine is becoming a real helper in the kitchen. There's not a meal that can be made until she has pulled her chair over to the countertop (and she wants NO HELP pushing it over from the table...shhhtop Mommi!). So far we've kept her occupied with the measuring cups and spoons, mixing bowls etc. But sometimes a kid just has to make a mess:

And I swear I did not teach her to drink straight from the faucet like this, she figured it out all be herself:
