On Wednesdays...

I go snarking on another page. Why don´t you come and join me over HERE?




This week, I´ll share a bit about my ever-expanding family, sibling´s side! The above picture shows me with a niece of mine. I mentioned to my sister -given that she already had two- to give this one to me. What with siblings should share and everything, but she said that people simply wouldn´t buy it!

or should that be baby-dolls?? doesn't matter, you're both a cute as buttons on a Hello Kitty sweater -- which, last time i looked, was down right adorable! ; ) xoxo

AS cute as buttons on a Hello Kitty sweater. yeesh.

by the way, is it just me, or do you need your blanket, again? (can't believe no one else has stopped by... what's up with that?) ; ) xox

Why do you look more curious about the camera than the two-year-old? I swear it's a generation of celebrities they're training.

neva, we are very cute. The family resemblance is uncanny, don´t you think?

Doug, she is used to having her picture taken all the time, I only become the focus twice a year! It was new to me, it was shiny...I was confused. The two year old? Who made you Kohlberg?

The baby seems to be thinking "why is this woman sticking her head in the frame of a perfectly nice portrait of me?"

Kidding of course. Very nice photo of you both although I have to agree with Doug that baby seems very blase while Auntie...well...nevermind.

Are you rehearsing yet?

What a cute picture! Congratulations to such a devoted auntie.

I bet your parents keep wanting to know when the family will expand on your side, eh?

Joel, 3 hours everyday. Those are some complex dance moves. And the complex lyrics are hard to get down! I am working on it. And go on...don´t restraint yourself...her auntie what?

theresa, little mini-wave celebration in awe of me? I like it!

snay, yes...as a matter of fact they do. I just fear it would imbalance the universe!

Minka...we've made plans to clear the furniture out of the family room so you'll have plenty of room.

 
At 20:22, Blogger Doug The Una said...

OK, I'll bite. Kohlberg? Not everyone's German, you know.

 
At 20:54, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Joel: you forgot to tell her about the new rug. i'm sure her dance steps will be a lot smoother now that we got rid of the old one! ; ) xox

Doug: uh... Kohlberg's from the US -- studied under Piaget... psychology/child development... ring a bell? or do you only relate to Pavlov? ; )

Ya, ya, I'll be over in a minute. I keep going back to get another look at that great picture....Judy

 
At 00:44, Blogger Doug The Una said...

Well, Neva, he sounds German. Piaget sounds French but I suppose you'll tell me he's Angolan.

I really just came here to be obnoxious about the lack of Thursday Brain-teaser.

Although born and raised in Amherst, MA he made his name playing southern-style acoustic blues and, later, caribbean and Malian music.

 
At 02:19, Blogger Minka said...

Joel, I think it only right! Those spins alone ...

Doug, Kohlberg is a psychologist most renowned for his stages of child development. I was curious as to how you could tell me niece was 2 years old in that picture???

Neva, conditioning of mouth fluid towards food? I took that course too ;)

actonbell, so you are not gonna sign the petition? Can I offer you some chocolate, a beer perhaps, a hard-cover book?

J.D...thanks, now move it!

Doug, close but not quite, Winnie the Pooh neva made it to Amherst!

-short intermission-

I went downtown tonight to see a live broadcast of the American Idol final...after the 20th or so intermission I gave up and drove home, I didn´t see the winner announced...I suppose it to be Jordin...did she cry again? Were there tissues. These are questions I need answered, preferably by tomorrow morning. I am way to tired to even google it now. It is friggin´ 2 in the morning here!

 
At 03:59, Anonymous Anonymous said...

girlfriend -- Jordin DID win and did cry, and it was most anticlimatic. and i say that as one who watched only bits and pieces of the show. oy. xox

Doug: mea culpa, amigo. i meant no offense. at least i don't think i did. i raised 2 sons rather badly, so what i know about Child Development wouldn't fill a drool cup. ; )

 
At 10:36, Blogger Minka said...

Neva, I hear it was a longish- help starving children in Africa- here have two mustangs-look at these weird people who auditioned-Simon-Ryan Seacrest battle- what famous singers can we possibly dig up kinda evening. I am glad Jordin did win over the beatbox dude. I am glad she sparkled and lived up to her name :)

 
At 15:10, Anonymous Anonymous said...

yeah -- every time Blake sang i wondered why in the heck he was there. so it IS good Jordin won. not sure who cried more, tho', Jordin or Paula Abdul. yikes, that woman is a train wreck in a low-cut blouse and too much mascara. scary!

again, we only caught snippets of the show -- which was all we could take -- but, as you can see, it was enough. ; ) xox

 
At 16:33, Blogger Nessa said...

You both are so cute. I can see it.

 
At 17:38, Blogger Miz BoheMia said...

Beautiful pic and oh how I love the innocence and simplicity of that age! I am glad you get to see the nieces and nephews soon! Live it up!

Besos...

Guys, never watch Idol live. If you tape it, you can save yourself hours of time and anxiety over the one zillion commercials. I look at one or two performances and the end...when somebody gets the boot. Did anybody hear Bette Midler sing? Even if you did, you didn't. I wanted to hear what Simon would say about her. I was shocked...........Judy

 
At 19:02, Blogger G said...

Sorry I didn't drop in to see this little cutie yesterday! Oops, I mean both of you little cuties!!

She is MOST ADORABLE! Yeah, I think you two would make an interesting mother/child combo. Stranger things have happened in the genetic crapshoot. You're both adorable.

And Neva "as cute as buttons on a Hello Kitty sweater" was hysterical, but cute of course.

Cold and brazen like beer in a trophy,
A child can be lazy and loafy,
disdaining the lens.
Why even pretend-
That she'll smile while she's still getting no fee?

 
At 23:50, Blogger Minka said...

neva, and teh way she claps her hands toegther...not quite, and just the palms...does my hea din, I tell you!

goldennib, thank YOU...I see it too...uncanny beauty unites us. *big grin*

Miz B. I can´t wait...Those hugs are everything. Those chubby little arms wraped aorund your neck. The way they hide behind your legs when scared...I can´t wait!

JD, they dug up Bette Midler? Must be when I went for my second beer :) Thank God!

G, the party starts when you arrive. I actually put my brianteaser on hold, just so you´d get a chance to participate in complementing my genepool!

Doug,strong headed certainly is an understatement for you...I am working on it! Give me a few minutes, I just came home!
