the great imposter

I was looking through some of the entries from the Regis and Kelly's beautiful baby contest and came across this picture. I almost did a double take. Is this what my child is going to look like in a few months? I will be quite disappointed if this child wins the contest and Meredith is left high and dry.


**Disclaimer** The child pictured above is not my child.


Anyway, on to the rest of the weekend. Meredith's new obsession is Elmo. She wants to watch Elmo ALL.THE.TIME. I bought her a set of Elmo's World DVD's on Ebay and we watched a lot of Elmo this weekend. We know whe wants to watch Elmo when she plants her little butt in her chair and grunts at the TV. All the pictures in this post are taken with my fabulous new lens, BTW.
Here she is assuming her position on the chair.

Did I mention that Tabitha has a new found interest in Elmo too? This picture completely sums up the life of a toddler.

And if you haven't gotten enough Elmo yet, cap it off with Elmo Live.

We did find a little 'off' time to read with Daddy...

And got a little rowdy on the Bounce and Spin Zebra!

I found time during Meredith's nap (she is a marathon napper - averages 2-3 hours) to make a trip to Goodwill because it's been AGES since I've been over there. For $27 I came back with some stuff for me and for Meredith.

I got Meredith some 2T clothes. That's actually a 3T sleeper that I hope fits her next winter.

I got myself some clothes too!

In case you want to know, that's a pair of Ann Taylor Loft Jeans, a pair of (I think they are brand new) Express Editor capris or gauchos or whatever you want to call them (it's always a great day at Goodwill if I can score myself a pair of Editors), and a Banana Repuplic sweater vest.
