my "special" helper
olivia's birthday is coming up in a few days.
i've got her present all set-- a pink yoga mat...she's been asking for one for ages!
i'm going to make bacon & her favorite muffins for breakfast. (seriously, check out the link - they are awesome! she eats at least 3 muffins for breakfast. don't get me started on how much she LOVES bacon.)
i have her school treat all planned -- cookies cut out in the number 6 with pink & purple icing.
birthday supper is going to be spaghetti (no sauce for her, just plain noodles & parmesan cheese).
and we have plans to go to chuck e cheese in a few weeks with her grandparents.
so as you can see, i'm all set. and i feel martha would be sufficiently proud. {kidding!!}
but my wii fit thinks differently. the other night when i logged on, i gave me the following message...
"did you know olivia's birthday is coming up? have you gotten her a present yet? might i suggest a surprise party."
clearly, wii knows no bounds. i guess i need to work on harnessing its power. i wonder if it can fold laundry, vacuum my house and pick kids up from school. now that would be useful.
(i guess i should add that when you set up your profile in wii, you enter your birthdate. that's how it knew about olivia's birthday. otherwise that would be extremely creepy. ha ha.)

I'm impressed and I'm sure Martha would be too! You actually were even ahead of the wii by having everything planned and not needing their suggestion! a bit creepy, not sure if i'd want one of those in my home - it might know too much!
do you think i can get the flax stuff at cub?
i think gerrit would love the muffins (i remember you sending me that recipe in the past too but the flax ingredient scared me!)
caryn - i bet you can get it at cub. they have it at supertarget - cuz that's where i got it.
definitely try them! they're a hit at our house too!!!
