200

You know what I really want to be doing right now?

Watching this:

But I can't, because this is how we feel about TV in our house:

I could always watch it on abc.com tomorrow when they post it on their site, but it just isn't quite as exciting after the fact.  Oh well.  Such is life.

Guess what?  This is my 200th blog post!  Yahoo!  Shouldn't I do something fun to celebrate?  If I were a real blogger I would host a giveaway or something super spectacular like that, but I'm not a real blogger so for those poor few souls that read Just the Four of Us, you're just going to have to give yourself a pat on the back and pretend I'm giving you a hug saying thanks for being my friend and following what our little family is up to.  

Seriously, I think only about 10 people read my blog (thank you Scott, Mere, Amy, Mom, Mom A, Caren, Lisa, Shannon, Cerissa, Jess...), but some other people out there are reading because I just added my blog counter a little over a year ago and there are 19,791 hits (and now even more than that since apparently YOU are reading this right now)!  Granted Scott and I do our best to pad the stats checking the blog daily (I'm kidding, we aren't doing it to pad the stats, just to check our friends' blogs!), but there must be other people reading too!  In fact, my stats page tells me that there are pageviews from not just the US, but Germany, Canada, Ukraine, South Korea, Japan, Cameroon (Simone?!?!), England, Netherlands and Morocco.  For real!?!?!  Will someone please explain to me how this is possible and if blogger is just messing with me?  Anyways, I enjoy having this space to write down random thoughts, record pictures and funny quotes from my boys and record this crazy life of ours that is flying by too fast.  If you want to peek into my life, welcome and enjoy, and if not, that's OK too.  I don't need to be a famous blogger - just a good mommy and wife and daughter and friend.  (But maybe you should leave a comment so I know who you are.  It's more fun that way after all). 

Oh, and here are some pictures of my cute monkey and bumblebee that I promised:
Happy 200th post!  :)

Oh dear - Haha...I just counted up my posts on the side and apparently it's only my 194th post because my "stats" on my homepage counted a few posts that were never published.  Oh well, I'm not erasing this whole post now!  I guess we'll just celebrate again in a couple weeks when I really DO pass 200.  Anyways, it's time to go watch Friday Night Lights with the hubs.  Later!

I read every post! Count me as #11! I get so excited anytime a new post from"Just the Four of Us" comes up in my rss feed.

Brian can be #12 - he's pretty good about it too. :)

haha...can't wait to see all the comments people send in from all over the world - that unseen fan club I'm sure you must have! :)

Me too! I read all of them too. I love hearing about people I know who are raising kids and going through similar things. I also am always amazed at where our counter says people are reading from. It's pretty fun to track. I also check from my google reader so I might not come up as one of your stats unless I actually click on the blog to comment! Keep it up :-)

YAY! Love being part of the faithful 10...though I'm sure there are really wayyyy more readers than that. Lots of people just don't like to comment.

Thanks for the heads up about Scott's response comment on one of your posts too...I rarely remember to go back and check...but after your heads up, I did, and I made Jerry go read it too...though I don't think he commented...

Anyway, I love reading the updates on your adorable boys (and you&Scott!)...it provokes a lot of thoughts for me in the future regarding kids and family life and values and all sorts of stuff. :)
