Superpoints, how fun!

Ok this is totally random but I came across this site called Superpoints Network. You rack up points which can then be redeemed for rewards, like gift cards, etc. Well, it's completely free and there are several ways to get points. You can:
1) click the SuperLucky button for chances to win points. Think of it like playing slot machines for free. i find it quite fun!
2) get points in emails that are sent to you from Superpoints. Easy peezy!
3) watch videos. Also very easy. there aren't a lot of new ones daily... i've been on for about 3 weeks and seen maybe 3 or 4, but when they do have them, they are a quick easy way to get some points.
4) fill out offers. i don't do a lot of these but there are some free and easy ones if you wade through them. there are also things like surveys, and online shopping that you might already be doing anyway...
Anyway, i have been doing it for about 3 weeks now and I already have over 1200 points. 500pts gets you a $5 amazon gift card or $5 paypal cash. So I've already gotten over $10 for Free! i think that's pretty sweet. a good way to get more points really easily is to recruit friends to sign up. I know, I know, it's a pyramid scheme, but it's FREE so you really can't lose anything. membership is by invitation only. so if anyone out there reading this is interested in trying it out, here are some "invite tokens" (links posted at bottom of this post). just click the links and it brings you to the site so you can register with me as your "sponsor". again, it is totally free, there are no hidden obligations. i find it kinda fun to click the superlucky button and try to win points. oh, you start with 5 clicks per day, i think, but if you make sure to verify your email and complete your profile you go up to like 30 clicks per day. once you get some friends signed up you get more clicks. it only took me a week or so to get up to the highest (platinum) membership and i get 100 clicks per day. if i sit down to just click the button, and my internet isn't acting slow, i can get the 100 clicks done in a fairly short amount of time, like 15 minutes or less.
what it boils down to is free cash for me, which is great being a stay at home mom right now. so if you think you might like it, give it a shot! and let me know if these links don't work. they are only active for 7 days max, and then you need a new one... and it's one per person. but i always have more, so leave a comment if you are looking for an invite and i'd be happy to put up more. :)

4 months

It's 6am, Sunday. I'm feeding The Podge. This was the 4th or 5th night in a row that she hasn't woken up for a middle of the night feeding!
Other developments - for a week or two now she hasn't really been interested in her pacifier anymore. She'd rather have her "stuffy bear" and suck on her hand or lips. She's getting very good at sitting up with little assistance. And last night for the first time, she voluntarily reached out to pet Mischief. It was so cute! She "pet" her several times. :)
Tomorrow morning we have her 4 month appointment. I'm curious what she weighs and what percentile she is in.
Ok, gonna go. She's finishing up and I think she'll go down for a couple more hours of sleep. :).
Til next time...
