Last night we registered with the donor sibling registry and since then I've been exchanging emails with the mom of a half-brother of the girls! There was an immediate and mutual connection and we're having so much fun comparing personality traits and such. Genetics are an amazing thing and I am surprising myself with how intrigued I am by it all. I mean, she showed me her boy's picture and he's wearing a Ramone's t-shirt. Right? Right? I can't wait to see where it goes!

In probably much more important news, I am teaching the girls to sing "great green globs"... you know that one? Mander is slightly appalled which only encourages me. What other gross songs do you remember from childhood?

For those who don't recognize it, here are the words:

Great green globs of greasy grimey gopher guts, mutilated monkey meat, chopped up parakeet, roasted eyeballs rolling up and down the street I'll eat it without my spoon cuz I remembered my straaaaw, slurp AH.

I know there are variations on that one too. Parenting is fun!
