Thirteen Thursday

 I have decided to participate in  Thursday Thirteen again this week! 
My daughter turned 13 last week.  So this week I decided on listing the 13 most popular names for girls born in 1998.
Here are the top 13 in order

1. Kaitlin
2. Emily
3. Sarah 
4. Hannah
5. Ashley
6. Brianna
7. Alexis
8. Samantha
9. Taylor
10. Madison
11. Haley
12. Jessica
13. Alyssa

My daughter's name is not on the list! Actually, her name didn't even make the top 100, or top 375!!  Her name is  # 377 on the list I used for reference.  Hard to believe that Vivienne,  Priscilla, Essence, Fatima,  and Regina were more popular!!

Wordless Wednesday

Bottoms Up!!!!!

It's still Friday!

This week’s statements:
1. I always refuse to admit my age when it doesn't matter, because I don't understand why some people even ask!
2. I won’t eat anything that once lived underwater!
3. I would like to hang out with Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx for a day.
4. I would like to learn how to knit something other than a square or rectangle.

Want to participate? Answer the four fill-ins (the green text in the above points) on your blog, and sign up on the linky. Please, do not forget to follow the host Hilary from Feeling Beachie, and this week's co-host Jen from What Would Jen Do.
