Actually it isn't. If it were it'd be cheaper! LOL I just happen to work in the same complex as a daycare center.

Michele, I did giggle at the thought of all our pseudonyms being real names. We actually do call our baby Squiggles quite often, as well as a slew of other nicknames. I hope he will actually respond to his real name!

We do call her Ducky maybe 60% of the time. It used to be A LOT more but when you asked her what her name was, she was saying "Ducky", so we had to ease up on that and call her by her name.

Hi! Since I use pseudonyms on my blog I'll just go by FXSmom :). I have 4 kids. We are raising my husbands teens and my 2 special needs kids. They are 15, 13, 11 and soon to be 9. I work full time in a trust & investment firm as well as go to college. I'm just trying to wrap up my associates degree in business so I can have the piece of paper that shows I can do what I know to do. I'll be done in May...woohoo.

I'm Jennifer. I am a mom to Carolynn who is 11 and Catherine who is 8. We live in San Diego, CA. I work full time for an import and distribution company doing everything imaginable. (We are only a two person team here, my boss owns the buisness and I do the work.) I am looking forward to the challenge. So far, so good... but only day 6. Ask me again after I spend all day fixing a Thanksgiving dinner and navigating my family....

Hi Jennifer! I weaseled out of thanksgiving this year--heading to a friend's house. I am going on a work-related trip in a week though, so we'll see if I am able to keep at this during that time...

Thanks, Angela! I love taking pictures of my daughter, though as she gets older I have to catch her whenever she's in the mood. Lately that's been a challenge.

Hi, I am a mum of 3 ('mum' being the giveaway that I am a foreigner.... Australian actually) working part time for the govt, part time at school, full time for my family and blog in my spare time. I am totally obsessed with shoes (blogged with photos twice this past week!) and good strong REAL coffee.

I have 2 teenage daughters and a nine year old boy who is my forever baby, just turned toddler. He is the main focus of my blog, mainly venting frustration in a sarcastic tongue in cheek way.

Looking forward to checking out all your blogs :)

Kelley... I totally posted a picture of new shoes yesterday. :) http://tropicalfruitbowl.blogspot.com/2007/11/writers-block.html

I couldn't think of anything to write and my new shoes were awsome. :) I am going to see Wicked in Los Angeles on Sunday and my 11 year old says they look like the wicked witch's shoes.

Hi, I'm Tom. I'm NOT a working mom. I'm a dad to two beautiful black cats that I co-parent with my girlfriend, Keli. Their names are Princess and Puck. Both were rescues, seperately, and look exactly alike except they are a year apart. We can't have children of our own but I guess there are other options when the time comes.

I couldn't resist commenting because I am just amazed at all you busy moms to real children!

I wish you all the very best. I'm not sure I could do all the things you do but I can give you all an applause for doing it!@!!

Now get some rest!

Tom
