and from the outside ... it looks all cheery! and happy! and fun for all!
bologna! ... (which i would so rather spell - baloni - ) ...
this task was like pulling teeth from a lion ... taking a bone from an angy dog ... taking a sucker from a toddler ...
A.W. to the F.U.L.
are we done yet? how many more? i don't know mommy! i don't wanna do this anymore!
it took DAYS to get through it!
there were several completely awful mommy moments of ... "fine ... then we just won't do it! i don't care ... it's just a blog!"
(insert whiny pathetic voice here) ... but-i-wanna-do-a-blog! i-wanna-do-it!
in other words ... attempt at your own risk.
this blog mama cannot be held responsible ... for anything.

Well even though it was tough to extract the info, it was really cute! Kids are funny with how they perceive things, I love it. Great meme!
Great meme, indeed, but my kid's answers would all be: "Cheese stick?" "Watch a Sleeping Doody?"
"Yoo hoo!" and "Sleeping Doody!" (Yeah, the princess bears repeating.)
Hilarious! I love that you are 17 inches tall. You are Barbie are probably BFFs, right?
I loved this post. Thought about doing it myself then thought better of it. My oldest is a boy. I can't find out what happened at school let alone get him to do his Kindergarten homework which is 3-5 questions long without a hassle. Maybe I'll wait until my daughter gets older...much older.
Great job and I'm sure it was AWFULLLLLL but well worth it for us readers. Thanks for doing it!!
Much love from NJ,
Sue

Heh, I've been amused by this meme as I've seen it crop up. My kid doesn't talk yet. Or rather, every answer would be, "woof!".
Those were some super cute answers, even if it was like pulling teeth. At least you will be able to show her when sh is a little older, how her perception of the world has changed.
I love this....we are on spring break now so I will have to try this with both kiddos!! We will see how far we get!
