It’s been one of those days, folks. Asa is sick. He’s got the yuckiest cough I have ever heard in my life. He screams every time I wipe his faucet of a nose. He even cries when he sneezes. It’s unbelievably pathetic. Poor little guy.

Lydia is not sick but today I swear she was channeling a 12 year old. A twelve year old that I did not know. A twelve year old I didn’t know who is on an MTV show. She accidentally stabbed Asa in the eye with a stick thingie (yes, I like them play with a stick thingie) and when I told her to put it down because Asa was sobbing she said “I DON’T WANT TO PUT IT DOWN.” Then when I told her to go sit on the red chair for three minutes she said, “I DON’T WANT TO.” Really?!

I just don’t think Top Ten Responses I’d Like to Give When My Kids Disobey or Top Ten Over The Counter Medications I Wish My One Year Old Would Share With Me are the kind of lists you wanted to see today.

Instead, I’m going to bless you with my previous bests. That’s right, according to my amazing and inspiring stats, these are the Top Ten Oh Amanda Blog Posts Of All Time (with the exception of contests and stuff like that). You’re salivating aren’t you?

1. The Snowflake Party

YES! I knew it! I LOVE and ADORE this birthday party! This party has it all—food, crafts, costumes and an adorable guest of honor!

2. Sony Handycam HDR-SR10

I got this camera as a review item. And it doesn’t work with my Mac. And THAT is why people get to my blog. Because they are googling, “WHY ISN’T MY VIDEO CAMERA WORKING ON MY MAC?!”

3. Best Advent Calendars EVER

I’m already getting excited about the advent calendars this year. I’m going to do a follow up post with all the new ones I’ve discovered. YAY!

4. Nestle Family Blogger Event & Controversy

This is telling since this post is less than a month old. I don’t have much to add. It still kinda gets under my skin.

5. Once Upon A Time, I Was Famous

This is one of many posts about my trip to Pampers Headquarters. It was my first bloggy event. It was also where I was introduced to UNICEF and their goal to eradicate tetanus around the world. Love it.

6. The Princess AND the Pirate

Oh, this is so sweet. This is the post where I announced Asa’s birth! His drug-free delivery no less!

7. Contemplating Unmedicated Childbirth

Speaking of which, here’s my post a few months earlier where I contemplate going drug-free for his delivery.

8. Right To Life

I participated in a silent march for the unborn. And I didn’t post this then but it was also the day I found out I was pregnant with Asa. Knowing I was carrying a tiny baby inside of me made the day even more moving.

9. My Miracle

Apparently, my reproductive-ness is high on the interest level here on the blog. This is the story of when I was pregnant with Lydia and they told me to have a D&C because she was dead. Yeah.

10. oh me

Actually this is THE number one post of all times. Obviously, because it’s my about me page. But hey, if you’ve never read it, I kinda like it. I have an affinity for “about me” pages. I read every one.
