Keagan's First Laugh

Caught by my iPhone - Keagan's first real laugh. One of the absolute best sounds in the world! Too bad I have to make a silly noise to provoke him, but he really likes the noise I make for some weird reason!

All Those Years of Watching CSI Finally Paid Off

If you were a pair of prescription glasses belonging to a 3 year old and went missing, where would you hide out?

That's the question I've been asking myself for the past day and a half.

The answer is -- behind our headboard under OUR bed, of course!!

Thanks to our handy-dandy laser flash light (married to a science teacher, remember?) I (Daddy helped) went super sleuthing all over the house pretending I was Catherine Willows because she's the ex- stripper on CSI Las Vegas processing a house in a crime scene. I even used the blacklight setting. I EVEN DUG THROUGH OUR TRASH CANS!!

Ewww! Why? Because my darling, sweet little Lucian told me he put his glasses in the trash "because they were dirty." Yes. The child has a warped sense of humor.

(Thanks, Mom. Hope you're happy now.)

This is the very reason kids are cute: so they live into their teenage years.

I've been told that next, they start to smell and then I'm not sure what Darwin says is the reason they make it into adulthood.

What's still an unsolved mystery is: Why do we bother with actual toys?

Why!??

Bouncy Boy

Keagan at almost 4 months old in his Johnny Jump Up. His little feet just barely graze the floor, but somehow he is able to gain momentum with just one toe!

Sprechen Sie Wa?




This always cracks me up whenever I get this forward. Just had to share. I think it is very creatively written. I hope it puts a smile on your face today.


from an email forward:              


The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. 


As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English". 


In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.


There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter. 


In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. 


Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. 


Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away. 


By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". 


During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl. 


Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi TU understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru. 


Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas. 
If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl.
