Here comes trouble

I can tell this is my second time around on the baby thing. Because when Elizabeth learns new skills, my happiness for her is mixed with a little dread.
It is just one step closer to getting into things she shouldn't. Oh well, let the house-proofing the baby being!

Family date to Starbucks

We love a family date to Starbucks. Grace gets a water and a croissant and we all hang out. Elizabeth hasn't gotten in the spirit just yet.
Grace, on the other hand, gets excited enough for the four of us.

Flashback Friday: OJ Simpson

Is it just me or do the rest of my blog readers just love the way I managed to flake on an irregular basis on my "regular" features. In my still rather exhausted, sleep deprived state of mind (can anyone say teething baby?) things tend to fall through the cracks around here.

Anyways, now that we got that sort of apology out of the way, I will get on to flashing back. This week takes us back to 1987. January to be exact. I had to look it up, although judging from Dick's sweet sweater, I figured late 80's was a good guess.

Rumor has it, this meeting was arranged becuase of something or other that someone had done. I probably should get better details on this.

That part is inconsequential, though, becuase the exciting part, is that Dick and Carol met OJ Simpson. You know, OJ Simpson, the one who "didn't" kill his x-wife and that other guy. Although now he is mostly the butt of jokes and all, but apparently, according to his Wikipedia, he was actually once a legit celebrity. And they met him. See?

And they asked him a question.

Next to the photos, in the album is this paper. That must have been what they were asking him. Of course what stood out to me was the fact that on the paper is my former last name. But OJ's signature is nice too. When I saw this, I thought it screamed ebay. Although I am thinking of waiting until Gunnar is famous, as then it will be doubly valuable.

I also really like how Gunnar made sure to write on the page who won the game.


Pretty awesome what you can find in people's garages.

Having kids is finally paying off

Grace enjoys taking the laundry out of the drier for me.
And Elizabeth enjoys watching, and hopefully learning by example.
Now if I can just get her told fold it and put it away!

Messey Bessey

Elizabeth has been working on self-feeding. She loves it and it keeps her quite occupied. It has been causing me to miss having Guapo though as Guapo used to keep the floor under Grace's high chair clean.
I love how she concentrates so hard.
Making a mess is a must!

Sweetie Pie

Here is a little baby sweetness to hold you over until I get myself together enough to blog some more.
