Moving Day....



As most people would know by now...Kendal and I moved from the house on Brown st. a couple of months ago...
Moving day itself went pretty smoothly as far as moving days go..
We had lots of help for both moving and cleaning. (Which by the way...we really appreciated...)
However, as I was taking care of all the pre-move and post-move packing and unpacking by-myself due to other peoples time restrictions...I can't say the same...
We will miss the house on Brown, but are absolutly in love with living in this neighbor hood we are in now, and also with the house, which is just comfortable...
so...if you are reading this, and I should have sent you my new adress...send me an e-mail...and I will pass it along...

It works now...

A friend of mine sent me this video this morning...it is really worth watching....


Jeremy at 9 months...

I am sooo tired...


I don't think I have slept in over a week now...between my son, and my teen girl...

that's ok...sleep is for the weak. At least that is what one of my son's onsies say...

and whatever you think..you don't start getting more sleep once your kids are big.

I find that teens are a lot like two year olds sometimes. LOL!

A Heartfelt Thankyou!

This was forwarded to me from my friend Colin...I thought it was really funny, so I thought I would share...

To All My Friends:

  • As the holidays approach, my heartfelt appreciation goes out to all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me "forwards" over the past 12 months
  • Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy.
  • Extra thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat crap in the glue on envelopes 'cause I now have to go get a wet towel every time I need to seal an envelope.
  • Also, I scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.
  • Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains.
  • And, I don't use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.
  • I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.
  • I won't use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day.
  • I don't go to shopping malls because someone might drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.
  • I no longer receive packages from nor send packages by UPS or Fed Ex since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise.
  • I won't answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore and Uzbekistan.
  • And, I never eat KFC because their "chickens" are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.
  • I no longer have any sneakers—but that will change once I receive my free replacement pair from Nike.
  • I no longer have to buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.
  • I'm not worried about my soul because at last count I have 363,214 angels looking out for me.
  • Thanks to you, I have learned that God only answers my prayers if I forward an e-mail to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.
  • I don't have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is about to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time)
  • I no longer have any money at all - but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special email program.

Yes, I want to thank you so much for looking out for me that I will now return the favor!

If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 7 minutes, a large pigeon with a wicked case of diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM CST this afternoon. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next-door neighbor's Ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's beautician's illegitimate son.

Have a wonderful day....

PS: A scientist of the Hebraic persuasion from Brooklyn, N.Y., after a lengthy study, has discovered that people with insufficient brain activity read their e-mail with their hand on the mouse.

…don't bother taking it off now, it's too late.

Really Cool Article...Click on the article to read the whole thing...

What it feels like to be a baby

Parenting.com

As she picks him up, he's flooded with her scent and a dim memory of his other world -- the place where his body floated and he first recognized the scent that's hers alone. But now, two weeks after birth, he's in a vast, dry place called home. She brings him close to nurse and he roots with his mouth, guided in part by the smell of colostrum and the smell from the scent glands on her nipples. Her scent links him to everything he craves: food, warmth, touch. He latches on and the sweetness of the liquid is vaguely reminiscent of the smell and taste of amniotic fluid -- both are affected by his mother's diet. Already, sweet is his favorite taste.




I heard that rocks were good for digestion...

A Dogone Merry Christmas.....


And we SAY we love them....

Monkey See....Monkey Do....


Having a little one around is a reminder that EVERYTHING we do is always being watched by someone every day.... all the time.....

Lately Gizmo has been driving me crazy....ever since we moved..he barks at everything..a car..people coming in the house..even if he knows them...the t.v.-you name it- he is barking at it. The result is that I have been saying "Shut-up Gizmo" ALOT....

that is...until last night, when we were all sitting around the supper table..and all of a sudden Jeremy-who is 10 months old...said very clearly "Shut-up Gizmo"...There was a space of about 3 seconds for us to wonder if we really heard what we thought we heard..when he said it again...and looked directly at him....(It sounded more like Shub-ub Gibo...)

While it is funny now though...it probably won't be funny in a couple of years....LOL!
