Weekly Highlights: May 31 - June 6, 2009

By the time you're reading this, I'll be poolside! After what seemed to be a long winter, the pool is finally ready for action - and I'm sure my four children will give it plenty between now and Labor Day!

With summer here and the kids out of school, blogging has taken a bit more of effort. Between the children and trying to finish out the closure of my ribbon business, I had to play hooky on Friday!

But here is a wrap-up of what I was able to complete this week:

• Looking for some poolside reading this summer? Try Still Life by Joy Fielding or Dark Places by Gillian Flynn.
  
  
• At 4 months old, Princess A has decided to become the family rooster with a 4 a.m. wake-up time. Any suggestions on how to retrain her to sleep all night?
  
  
• Check out some of the funny signature lines I've seen around the web.
  
  
• Did you grab the Fast Food Freebies from Sonic and Arby's this week?
  
  
• The winner of the $5 Amazon gift card was announced. Congratulations Purplepassion126!
  
  
• I ranted on Octomom, Bailouts, and Teens with Random Thoughts Tuesday.
  
  
• If you're looking for one of the best movies on DVD for the summer, watch Taken.
  
  
• The Honey Mustard and BaconBaked Chicken recipe was added. Yummy!
