Hi and welcome to the Carnival! I can't quite believe my time to host has come round so quickly. I remember applying to host it months and months ago and now my time has arrived slap bang in the middle of me moving house! That's why I'm posting a day early because I'm posting from the library - since my oven doesn't yet work (there is a knob missing) let alone my computer. But I am putting this together for your pleasure while I look forward to later savouring a delicious [not] slice of microwave pizza!
I've had a blast reading the entries, and now it's your turn, show your fellow bloggers some love and leave them a comment, find a new blog you haven't read before, (I know I have). So pour yourself a cuppa, or in my case a glass of Pinot Grigio, and enjoy!

Looks like a great Carnival Emma - plenty of great reading material here to keep me away from the TV! Thanks for including my little ditty! x

Thanks for including me. Somehow I sent you the wrong link to my post, sorry, it should have been http://notesfromhome.com/2010/11/21/not-the-kind-of-sex-education-i-want-to-teach/.
Looking forward to finding some new blogs to read.
You put all this together whilst moving house? That really is dedication.
The Aussie Mom Bloggers are so cool. :)
For moving and putting this together you get super duper kudos!
My first time here--great list, thanks for the reading material, and well done for simultaneously moving house!
Being far less organised, I rarely manage to submit something in time for the carnival...but here's late happy Thanksgiving toast from the Mañana desk: http://mananamama.blogspot.com/2010/11/warriors-turkeys-aliens.html
Keep up the good work and enjoy your new home!

12 participants. Hmmm. Not nearly as many as at the Notting Hill Carnival.
But there the mammas are usually fat and single and leave baybee at home alone with a can of coke and a packet of Pringles.

electro-kevin 24 participants isn't it???
I do remember the NH Carnival - pretty much a nightmare - too loud and crowded even when I was a youngun
Dude! Emma you are hard core. I can't believe you moved during all this. I bow down to officially worship you now.
Organic Motherhood...thanks darling! and if you could also come round with one of those Swiffer mops and give the place a good scrubbing that would be very much appreciated too! xx
