Welcome!

Hello everybody! Today is the greatest day in all of bloggy land! Today is my SITS DAY!

*cue applause*

Thank you! Thank you!

Welcome to Life and Love of a Parrothead where I blog about things my husband does that makes me nuts, cute stuff my kid is doing, and just general obsessions (like Gilmore Girls). Sometimes I ramble. Sometimes I rant.

Since I am sure I will have some people stopping over by-way-of SITS, I thought I would explore how others find their way to my little slice of blogosphere.

According to Google Stats - here are a few random google searches that resulted in my site.

1. Blue Bell Ice Cream Slogan (3 hits). Ok... I had to search my own site to see where they may have landed, but this one may be a good post for them. Texas Grown

2. Computer mouse with long cord on white background (2 hits). What? I am sure they were dissapointed in the findings here and were like "WTF is this site?" But maybe they enjoyed learning that I had to bribe myself back to work... Prezzies

3. Jeans and Boots / Boots and Jeans / Jeans with Boots (total of 16 hits): Well I can say I did recently blog about this. I am super happy to see that I am not the only person out there obsessed with the fall weather that will never show up coming! I mean this heat... Enough Already!

While I am sure my website wasn't exactly what they were looking for in their search, I am really glad they stopped by and I hope they at least enjoyed the visit.

This weekend was a rough one y'all. Logan is teething hard core and had two break through up top and I think another one is just under the surface. Needless to say, he wasn't happy all day. Tylenol and lots of stuff to chew on helped a little. He kept doing this thing where he would just lay his head down like "oh man, I am so over this!"

Nowadays, if it is stable, he pulls up and stands. That box in the background? Stands against it. Baby gates, ottomans, myself - he is up. Seriously the coolest dude on the planet.

Thanks for stopping over today and y'all come back now, ya hear?

*I think that is from Beverly Hillbillies, which my husband has never seen.
*He has also never seen Andy Griffith - really? Wow. When I tell him that he will go fishing with Logan and they will be like Andy and Opie, he has no idea what that means.
*AND when I refer to the garage looking like Sandford and Son? Nope, hasn't heard of that either. 
*Ok maybe I watched too much Nick at Night as a child...

I am glad to know I am not alone in missing TV references. I hope Logan - and you - survive teething.

By far, the term "monkey feet" brings most of my search traffic. I mentioned it once as a joke, but there it is.

We used to take damp baby washcloths and put them in a ziploc bag in the freezer, and then hand one to the kids every once in a while to chew on for the teething.

Happy SITS day!

How does he not know about Andy and Opie...is he human?

Maybe a Dukes of Hazzard reference will jog your Hubby's memory ;) I watched a lot of Nick at Nite, too. Can you believe Friends is on it now? Gheez.

Just Me said...

I loved Nick at Nite! it was my absolute favorite!

Isabella said...

Ahhh teething! How can I forget that? Happy Sits day! I will be coming back for sure!

Leesha said...

Hi Breann!

Everyday Mama said...

Happy SITS Day! I knew I'd love reading your blog -- both of my parents took me to a Jimmy Buffet concert when I was little about 7 or 8 too. It's great music! Oh, and you're doing way better than me in Fantasy football!

Mama Up! said...

Congrats on your SITS Day!

I think you're the only woman I've ever "met" who plays fantasty football!

Marie said...

Happy, happy SITS day! :)

Funny what brings people to your blog right?

LBDDiaries said...

I certainly hope you are filling in those huge gaps in your hubby's life - I mean, NO ANDY GRIFFITH?? No, "I'm coming Elizabeth"? Has he watched? Does he like or think "huh?" LOVE your baby boy - so cute. Happy happy SITS day - may you meet many new e-friends and followers.

P.S.: this post was great! I love finding out what people are looking for on Google and how they connect with me. It's so interesting, isn't it?

Happy SITS day! Love your blog. I recently started a new blog. My old blog used to constantly get hits from people searching for "little girl hot pink cast." Weird. My daughter had broke her leg and I had a photo of her with a hot pink cast. I love seeing what people search for.

Happy SITS Day!

Your son is a cutie! Mine is almost 9 months old and he's doing the same thing- if it will stand still long enough, he uses it as a support. Yours seems to have much more hair than my lil' baldy though, lol.
Congrats on your SITS day- very cool!

The search that I get all the time that really confuses me is: Man Harness.

As far as I know, people, one does not exist, but, by all means, keep searching!

Congrats on your SITS day!

Happy SITS day! Your baby is soooo adorable! :)

Happy SITS day. Loving your blog. Fun!!! Blessings from another football fan -- Go Dallas!!

The Chef said...

I'm just a wee bit late commenting for your SITS day... but congrats! I hope it was a wonderful day for you.

We have found some very interesting searches that led people to our blog as well. Definitely not what they were looking for in our case. ;)

Congrats on your SITS day, and thanks so much for coming over to follow me. Your little guy is adorable. I love that you posted about search terms. Turns out that a couple of things I posted, which were entirely innocent, draw hits from people looking for something not so nice. Can't blog about that or it will just draw more. A martini recipe draws the most hits, but those people never hang around either. :-)

Diane Haynes said...

Wow! Lee, does not know Jed or Granny? Aunt Bee? Great shows. Now I know what he needs for Christmas!!

Margaret Almon said...

Happy SITS Day! My father grew up in East Texas--Port Arthur.

Franchesca said...

Your little man is adorable!! My son is 17 months and still teething. Such a sad thing that little ones have to go through!!

Anyway I look forward to reading your journey. :)

Xx fran

Unknown said...

I miss the old Nick at night! It needs to come back. I wish I could show my daughter these shows not icarley, gag!

Holly said...

LOL! Those blog searches are too funny! Mine gets hits from some pretty strange things, too!
