- Donna is another of my mom's sisters. If I were forced to pick a favorite aunt (I have 13 aunts) she'd be in the running. Don't tell my other aunts . . . oh wait, some of them read this. I love all of my aunts and they would ALL be in the running. I really wish we lived closer to Donna so Theo could get to know her too.
- Shasta doesn't have a blog, as far as I know. She is a gourmet chef . . . who also knows how to make candy . . . and mom to two funny girls.
- Rebecca also doesn't have a blog, I don't think. I was bummed this week to find out her husband, about to graduate from medical school, got matched and they are moving to Pittsburgh . . . well . . . happy for her, bummed for me!
- D. Scott is another cousin of mine. I am loaded with cousins and I don't mind bragging about it. Scott likes Rush and The Lord of the Rings, among other things I am sure. It has been a long time since I saw him and his family last but it doesn't actually seem like that long. Again, blogging helps these things.
- Emily and I go way back; even though her brother and I were in the same grade, Emily and I were usually in the same class at church and I have many, many fond memories of girl's camps and sleepovers. I have a video of our very own rendition of "Sometimes" by Britney Spears, circa 1999. Trust me, it's a good one. Her little girl is just a few days older than Theo.
- Tara is a mom of girls--what would that be like?--who lives in Texas. Check out her sidebar, it's got sweet pics and great quotes.
- Ellie's blog is the best because I can totally picture her describing all of her antics in person. I remember when she and I used to IM each other from down the hall. Ah, the dorms. Ellie, if you ever feel like moving back to Maryland I will fully support that decision.
- Emily is one of the earlier bloggers who I "met" (but have never actually met) a few years ago. She recently began living the Utah County life, thereby fully becoming a member of the movers and shakers of Mormon mom-bloggers.
- Kristen doesn't have a blog. Her son is just a little older than Theo and it's pretty funny to watch them together. We used to hang out a lot in the mother's lounge together . . . I miss the excuse of the mother's lounge! Maybe I should just go hang out in there sometime during Sunday School.
- Liz just had her third boy. These boys could be triplets if it weren't for the age difference--I'm telling you, they look exactly alike. Liz and her husband, Chris, went to high school with Matt. They are Disney and Cougar enthusiasts and very funny. I really wish they'd picked a school in Virginia or Maryland so we could hang out with them more! Why don't more people plan their future around us?
And now it's time for my afternoon nap. Feel free to be jealous. Happy weekend!

Eliza, this no-feed thing you've got is making life hard for me! My laziness causes me to forget to check your blog, but now that I'm here, it's fun to see a link to me. I still dream that our siblings will fall in love and marry someday so we can hang out at their children's birthday parties. Would you tell Hannah to get on that, please?
I'll let her know. If you want to get any sparks going you had better hurry because she's getting married in about 3 months! (although maybe you knew that)
Oh, that's funny. I didn't know, but that only makes it all the more exciting!
I love reading these getting to know you's! You are too creative.
