These are all posts I've written in the last 2 or 3 weeks. See why it's so quiet around here????
- Contrary to the subject line that was edited for me (I am NOT a minivan mom!!), I posted my much, much needed Suburban Car Clean Out today in Tackle it Tuesday over at 5 Minutes for Mom.
- I have been really impressed with Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey series. The 3rd book just came out, and I am pleased to be let you know about an awesome giveaway for the first 3 books AND an Ipod Nano. Read my review of The Iron Queen and enter the giveaway over at 5 Minutes for Mom.
- Another review WITH giveaway: Invasion, is a fun sci-fi YA novel suitable for younger YA readers.
- I posted two more sets of Cybils Middle Grade fiction reviews, both suitable for younger MG readers: Alvin Ho and Sophie Hartley and Two Mystery Series.
- Check out our Cybils Challenge if you want to read some quality Kidlit along with us over at 5 Minutes for Books.
- I thoroughly enjoyed a short story collection, all with the theme of military families in Ft. Hood, Texas: You Know When the Men are Gone.
- I wrote two pieces for the "On Reading" column -- The One Place I Don't Have Books and Super Bowl or Super Book? both of which got lots of fun comments weighing in.

I held out for a long time, but I became a minivan mom a year ago. Although I will go back to a car when my kids are older, I have to say that I love my van for this stage in life (and it is a VW, so I feel a little cool). But, I did have to laugh the other day when I saw this bumper sticker on the back of an Odyssey: I used to be cool.
I'm a minivan mom and have been since my third child was born. I love my van. I can haul STUFF and kids. Although I think we may need one of those large SUVs when my boys get to be teens.
