Funny!

Henry came and told me that he is going to vote for McCain. I don't know if I should ground him or take him to the voting booths.

Weirdness

So just a random post of things that have been happening and freaking me out over the last week.

Freak Out #1: I hate Gardner Village. Sure it's cute, but when there are 5,000 people and your kid is the most obnoxious one there, cute just doesn't seem to cut it.

Freak Out #2: Impetigo. As in a skin infection on my 5 year sons penis. What the HELL!

Freak Out #3: Broken Head. Picture this; two young boys spinning in circles to see how dizzy they can get. One falls into the other and they tumble over like two drunken idiots. The unlucky one bangs his head and gets two stitches. Do you think the lucky one belongs to me? I wish.

Freak Out #4: We just got a package in the mail from my father. It was addressed to my husband and is a really nice socket wrench set. It's not his birthday, there was no note included, just a really nice gift out of the blue with no warning. We're both scratching our heads over that one.

And Finally...
Freak Out #5: Breast Pump.

To Handsome to Handle!

So yesterday my cousin, Kate (so kind, gracious and beautiful), took us over to the frisbee park for a little photo shoot. It was a beautiful fall day and the hippies were more pleasant than usual. After 400 or so pictures I think we ended up with some great shots of the boys. Here are some of my favorites.

Why did I do this?



This is what I have been looking at and listening to for the last 90 minutes or so. I have no idea what is wrong with the poor boy! He's listening to a recording of running water and that helps more that anything, but it just seems to slow him down, not shut him off. Does anybody know who holds the world record for the longest crying jag? Maybe we should start keeping track and get a pool going. If I could earn some money listening to him, it might make it easier. Pray for us both. PLEASE! :o)
I
I included a picture of a quiet 5 seconds. Can you see his poor little tears? It just breaks my heart!
P.S. I found out the camera does work if I turn the flash off. It's better than nothing.

Henry's cousin Andrew joined us this evening for a sleepover. They ate cookies and popcorn and ran around in circles. Generally acted like two 5 year old boys. They wore matching ninja pajamas and insisted they were afraid of the dark. I went to check on them and they just looked so sweet I thought I would share.

So here is Henry's first school picture. My little kindergartner! I thought I would take a minute and say how much I love this little guy and enjoy being his mother. Nobody has ever made me laugh as hard as he has, or made me as mad. It's been a wild ride for the two of us (and I'm sure it's only going to get wilder), but I have loved every minute of it.

Blast it!

So, Henry broke my camera. The little turkey dropped it in a cup of water and now it's on the fritz. I'm so bummed that I can't take new pictures and put them on my new blog! If anybody has an extra camera laying around let me know and I'll come take it off your hands!

The heir to the throne

Henry just hurt himself while attempting to give himself a high-five. The dorkiness is strong in this one.

Hello blogging world! This isn't anything I thought I'd be doing so be patient with me. I'm excited to be able to share my little world with all of you. My husband Jesse and I aren't really exciting, but our kids are! Henry needs his own TV show rather than me just trying to explain him to other people. Freddie hasn't yet revealed his mystical powers, but we're waiting on pins and needles. He did eat rice cereal for the first time yesterday, does that count?
