Introducing....ME!

Who is this girl? She's ME! LOL! Well, ok, she's my Avatar!

Today, she's shopping at the mall...a place where you would not be hard pressed to find me! Of course, she's not carrying her signature Starbucks Iced White Mocha, but perhaps she overdosed on my last post! OR, she just hasn't gone inside to get one yet! DUH!

Oh, ok...what is an Avatar, you ask? To quote Yahoo!: A Yahoo! Avatar is a character that you can personalize and use when interacting with friends online. By changing hairstyles, clothes, accessories, and backgrounds, you can create your own unique persona.

That's a boring, marketing-speak way of saying she's my computer paper doll version of yours truly!

Anyway, she's headed to my sidebar where she'll help to liven up this place! And, I'll play dress-up with her when the spirit moves. GREAT...something else online to distract me from the laundry!

*Update: For those of you who originally saw the skinny pre-pregnancy version of me...well, I hope you enjoyed it. My girly was able to grow a pregnant belly. And all with the click of a mouse! :)

  1. She carries her pregnancy very well!!

    Did you see, I think it was on abc, a show about these? And how people use them to live a second life? It was, umm, interesting!!

    I'll look forward to seeing what both of you are up to when I come back!!

  8. I stumbled upon your blog & really enjoyed reading your posts. I'll definitely be back. Oh, & I voted on what you'll be having too! I have a 4 year old & 2 year old...both boys. I just recently had another little baby...another precious boy! Guess what my vote was?!

  9. amazing. she looks so much like you. and how cute is that she has her hands on her belly - just like most pregnant women do. do you?

    do they have it that you can change it to be carrying the baby in your arms or in a carrier of some kind? that's too cool.

  12. LOL, I've had my Yahoo one set up for about 2 years now. I don't do much with her though. My oldest daughter has one and I like to log into her account when she's sleeping and give her doll a funky make-over! It makes her so mad, but it's fun, LOL!
