It's multiple choice.............


HMMM this one may take a bit it keeps telling me the choices are too long??

Does that mean the DIS is saying Lauri talks to much?? ;) :lmao:




Okay it is up with a few minor edits :)
 
Ziplocks, cell phones, caller ID, post-its...yup :teeth:

And new toys are DVD players, ipods, and my new Cricut...

:banana:
 
Caller ID rocks.. no more annoying sales calls during family time!! Even better can definitely avoid IN-Laws!!! Also, the DO NOT CALL list is great!! We got on that when it was first available.. Yeah!!!

Magic Eraser.. works wonders on crayoned walls! Yes, I have a 5yo artist who thinks his bedroom walls are his canvas! He has his name and hearts all over his walls.. Paint is ready.. now we just need the time to paint~! :confused3

Post-its.. I love post its.. for swaps, appts. and reminders all over dh's work calendar, truck... so that he remember what he needs to do or tell someone!
 
Caller ID is hands down the best invention ever. I was home on maternity leave the first day when my MIL called and started asking stupid questions. I hung up with her and called the phone company and haven't regretted it since!

Magic Eraser and OxyClean are right up there too!

I know someone who painted frames with oil paints for her young artists and let them paint their own pictures with a water soluable paint. When they wanted a new one the just washed it off and started over.
