Wow Susan! 100 posts! Congratulations. I just want to say that you have quickly become one of my favorite vloggers around. While I was definately glad to be mentioned in the NY Times (so what if they called me mundane, I got like 600 hits in one day!), I think for a videoblogging MOM, you were definately more deserving. I don't know how you do it, making one post everyday with two kids, and working on top of that! Not only do you manage to post once a day, everyday, but your videos are always entertaining. At least to me! I don't feel like I am slowing down either.. maybe the fact that our children provide a lot of the content for us to post is one reason. There's definately no slowing the kids down, that's for sure. I am so excited for you about your once-a-month gig at the Apple Store. Too bad the first one wasn't recorded, but it sounds like you have lots of exciting times ahead that you have yet to record. For your 100th post, I like the idea of you just talking about your whole experience with video blogging thus far, voiced over some favorite clips. Just my 2 cents :) Again, congrats!
... and you have also managed to be We Are The Media's vlogger of the MONTH!
