I made this for my sweet friend. She probably doesn't want me to say because it has her lovely kiddos on it, but I wanted to show you the picture of the beautiful necklace. I am especially proud of it. I love the sepia photo with the topaz crystals and the natural shell beads.
Whoops, this is supposed to be Wordless Wednesday.
{shutting up now}
What are you, my fabulous friends, reading? I would love to know!
I seriously have no guesses.
Can y'all even think of anything?
Will it hurt his feelings if we caption it?
I mean, he *did* take his shirt off in public.
Oh gosh, good luck this week!
Love, Alli
There is just so much wrong here! Have fun with this one. So go Name that Inappropriate photo!
Love, Alli
**Quick Housekeeping Note**
I have a confession to make. I have not mailed out winning earrings for the contest in two months {cowers}. I think about it, I feel awful, I say, "I'll do it tomorrow." So now I'm in a hole. Halp!!
If you won a Name tht Photo contest please, please email me so I can apologize profusely and mail them A.S.A.P. {blush}
I want to add an honorable mention to Kim who submitted this (too long to fit in the poll) gem-
"Ma'am, I'm going to let you off with a fix-it ticket this time, but you really need to get those headlights taken care of before they cause an accident."
Now, start voting! Winner will be announced next week!

Stuff that makes me laugh-
Ok, I admit this next one, to me, is brilliant-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This would so be me. Poor dude.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Comment theme of the day is Fussy Q & A.
Everything you ever wanted to know about Mrs. Fussypants but were afraid to ask. You can ask anything you want, silly or serious, big or little. I'll pick a couple randomly and do a post next week. {If you would rather email me your question, that is cool, too!}
OK, y'all, have fun!
Love you immensely, Alli
These made me giggle-
Yes, I am a bad person for laughing. I admit it! ;)
Now, I don't have a cat, but the little thought bubbles on this one were too cute.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Comment theme for today-
What is your favorite part of autumn? The break from the heat? Tailgating? Football games? The new shows on TV? (heroes will be back soon. woot! woot!) I love it all and would love to hear from you. So, what do ya love?
Have I mentioned lately that I just love you to pieces for reading? I do! Well, I love you really just for your good looks alone, but let's keep that our secret, K?
Love, Alli
Hey there, sorry I have been away. We have been working around the clock on the Blissfully Domestic relaunch.
In the last 72 hours I have done these things-
Behind the scenes we are building the forums, putting on beautiful headers, fighting with our web hosts and putting out a bazillionty fires.
Please feel free to go visit, fluff the pillows and make yourself at home. Be careful, it is a dangerous construction zone. Nails are sticking out, wires are hanging out of the ceilings and the potty won't flush. Hopefully this weekend the site will be fully functional. {{fingers crossed}} I wanted to let you see the site because it think peeking into a work in progress is fun personally. Or, maybe, um, I'm just nosey. Confession time- I do peek into your medicine cabinet in at your house. I. can't. help. myself. { hangs head }
In the meantime, how about a few blurry (unedited) yummy photos that will induce instant lactation?
"whoa, Mommy, too close. i look blurry!"
"you makin' me nervous, need to chew on my fingers."
"you so funny, Mommy"
"i am finding you to be very tiresome"
"ah, that's more like it. now, time for dinner"
I love you all. See you again tomorrow when I have showered and sleep a few hours in a row. **mwah**
Love, Alli

CAKE! Because of our caption photo of the week I have cake on the brain. Today's comments are all about cake. What was your wedding cake? Is there any cake you can refuse? Do you, like me, eat so much cake that you feel sick, yet still want more? Oh, you don't, um....me, either. hee. hee....{{{fussy slinks away}}}
Love you bunches, Alli
PS- Our wedding cake was carrot with cream cheese frosting. Mr. Smartypants' groom's cake was German chocolate. Yummy!
I get emails daily asking how did I do it, how did I build a successful MommyBlog and such a cool online Magazine so fast. I wish I could say that I am a brilliant chick who has all the secrets.
I'm not. I am just your average mom who types while nursing the baby, between diaper changes and after football practice. I drink coffee by the gallon and I dream of one day getting a housekeeper. Honestly, I just did one thing on the road to bloggy fame.
I read ProBlogger. I studied it all. I took the advice and I worked and worked and worked. Darren, aka ProBlogger, is the best thing that ever happened to bloggers. If you aren't familiar with him, you should be. He is a former minister, he co-founded b5media, runs Digital Photography School, and daily teaches people all over the world exactly how to be successful online.
I use Problogger as the must read list for all the 175+ wonderful writers at Blissfully Domestic. As we prepare for the big relaunch next Tuesday I have instructed them to go read all the best of Problogger archives. If you want to know exactly how I did it, and be inspired to grow your sites, get yourself to Problogger and start studying!
Love, Alli
PS- Yes, I did ask Darren if I could place his head on a dancing body for my post. You know he's a great guy. His response? "You Bet".
PSS- Ok, Remember the Hot Blogger Calendar contest I mentioned last week? I was not going to ask for votes, until something happened. The man formerly known as my husband, Mr. Smartypants, laughed out loud when I told him about it. Now I want to show him! So please go vote. Click here!
And just for kicks-
Ok, go to the bathroom before you watch this video-
Ok, today's comment game- What is your favorite tip to getting the kids to bed at a decent time? Not that I need HALP or anything. ;)
Love you & your good lookin' self,
Alli
