			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I may have mentioned this, but one of our big Christmas surprises was a Wii gaming system. We&#8217;ve really been enjoying it and my son, turns out, is a freakishly good Wii bowler. One of the cool things about this system is that you can create your own &#8220;character&#8221; or avatar called your &#8220;Mii.&#8221; (I realize my teenage nephews&#8230;assuming they even read this&#8230;are probably cringing &#8216;cuz I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m not getting the terminology right. Plus also, they probably cringe anyway. They&#8217;re teenage boys.) Well, my son didn&#8217;t stop at creating his own image.</p>
<p>This is his Wii interpretation of me (or Mii). <img border="0" src="http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd259/robindec/DSC01073.jpg" alt="Photobucket" /></p>
<p>It&#8217;s pretty close, actually.</p>
<p>This is my husband&#8230;<img border="0" src="http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd259/robindec/DSC01078.jpg" alt="Photobucket" /></p>
<p>This is my mother&#8230;<img border="0" src="http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd259/robindec/DSC01074.jpg" alt="Photobucket" /> My daughter says, &#8220;This looks just like Busia. Except the Mii Busia&#8217;s skin is kind of little bit smoother.&#8221; Harsh!</p>
<p>This is my father&#8230;<img border="0" src="http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd259/robindec/DSC01075.jpg" alt="Photobucket" /> (Beeps is short for Beepa. My daughter couldn&#8217;t say Grandpa when she was teeny and it kind of stuck.)</p>
<p>He&#8217;s been a little bit obsessed creating a Wii village of everyone we know. The kids keep running back and forth asking, &#8220;How do you spell Tyler, Kyle, Sara, Mrs. So-and-so.&#8221; Yes, to my friends, family, neighbors, school teachers, we have a Mii version of you in our game system! Be afraid Bedford, be very afraid.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;The only reason I&#8217;m doing this is for my children to see that Mommy was a pop star.&#8221;</p>
<p>             &#8211; Posh Spice, in an interview to <em>Entertainment Weekly</em>.</p>
<p> Uh&#8230;yeah. I say that all the time. Just said it two minutes ago to my five year old, as a matter of fact. Which leads me to today&#8217;s topic&#8230;.Sentences I never thought I&#8217;d utter, let alone mean.</p>
<p>1.)     &#8220;Quit eating that Halloween candy, we&#8217;re on our way to McDonald&#8217;s!&#8221;</p>
<p>2.)    &#8220;Hey, quit whipping that snake around!&#8221; (My son got a cheap plastic snake from the Dollar store and he&#8217;s been using it like bull whip, usually within two inches of his sister&#8217;s head)</p>
<p>3.)  &#8220;Would you just sit still and eat your spaghetti sandwich the regular way, with two hands?&#8221; (What can I say, putting said spaghetti between two slices of bread was the only way I could get my son to eat it the other night. Ya do what ya gotta do. Besides, how would YOU eat it?)</p>
<p>4.)   Get baby Jesus out of your mouth!</p>
<p>That&#8217;s just this week. Hmmm, I&#8217;d love to hear yours (and Posh&#8217;s).</p>
