Common Sense

This is a little story that was forwarded to me. It made me laugh for a full 5 minutes.
Disclaimer: this is of a political nature (Democrats might not like it)

Subject: $50

I recently asked my friend's little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?'
She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'

Her parents beamed.

'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to waituntil you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.'

She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight inthe eye and asked, 'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?'

I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'

Her parents still aren't speaking to me.

Eye Help!

So this is kind of random but I am in desperate need of a good optometrist. I don't think my contacts are going to last much longer. Does anyone know of a good one in Henderson??

Taylor's First Bites

Yeah!! It is time for Taylor to start eating solid foods. He is so ready and excited to take this step in his life! He did so well and I think that he is already a pro! FYI his hair looks red in a couple of these pictures...the lighting was a bit funky on our kitchen table. He has fuzzball brown hair.


All Ready to Eat

Enjoying his first bites!

The spoon tasted pretty good too!


His "what up? I know I am cool because I am eating rice cereal, dawg" look
He held it up all by himself


Rompers!

So I have been thinking about what I am going to do with my little boy in the Vegas heat and this is the best thing ever! Rompers are not as feminine as onesies and are shorts and shirts at the same time. Love it! He will be wearing quite a few of these this summer.

Respectful Dancer

This is a video from when Taylor was just 3 months old. I have been trying to get around to posting it for some time. I love it because you can already tell that Taylor is respectful, follows directions, and is a born dancer! Watch the video and you will understand!

What?!?!


So, a week ago I went in at 7 AM to get my little boy up for the day and this is what I saw! Yes, that is his arm sticking out of his crib. The funniest thing about it was that he was not upset or anything. He was just doing his usually scratch the mattress and play in his crib until I get him thing. In fact, I think he found it exciting to feel what is on the other side of the crib!

Rolling Over!

Here is a video from a couple of weeks ago when I finally caught this boy rolling over with the camera. He does not do things on demand. You just have to catch him when he is not looking!
