Can they get any cuter than THIS?

Rock Star

These are what Trent refers to as his "rock star" glasses and we almost had a meltdown as we left for daycare because he couldn't find them!

I'd like to report a theft.

Terry was heading off to class tonight and wanted some change so he could get a snack. I didn't have any and neither did he....so he raided Trent's college money! I was appalled and told him so. His response, "what's new, your always appalled" well okay, I guess I can't argue with that.

But anyway, I present the evidence.

There is now a shortage of $.75 out of Trents college fund. I don't know how we will ever be able to send him to college now.

There Is No Fix


From everything I've read and based on everything I can understand, the end point remains much farther down. All a bailout will do is prolong the pain; let them fail and get the worst over with.


So, why am I against the bail out? There is no accountability for people who put us into this mess. The policy makers in congress who decided that home ownership should be a universal right. Excuse me but, where does the constitution or declaration of independence guarantee home ownership for free? It doesn't, it only guarantees one's right to life, liberty and the pursuit, not entitlement, only the pursuit of happiness. What does this mean? It means you can dream about the things you don't have and want, but you have to work to get them.

How tall am I?

While in the bathtub tonight Trent asked "how many inches tall am I", I told him we could measure when he got out. So he got out of the tub and went and stood on the scale so I could measure how "tall" he is!!! He's too stinkin' cute!
He weighs 38.5 lbs, we will measure height later!

Time for bed!



Trent - Just one jump mom, okay!

Me - Okay just one time!

Trent - Oh, that wasn't high enough I have to do it again.

...and again

....and again

...and again

...and again


whew, finally we are down!



Spoiled by Grandma....

Yes, I know it is hard to believe!

They were supposed to have went to the store to get some potatoes but came home with a whole bag of stuff!
- light up Spiderman halloween shirt
- donuts
- cheetos
- fruit snacks
- a mum for me
- potatoes

I know ALL that was not on my list!

Rock Climbing!





So we were at a B-day party and they had rock climbing (how will we ever compete (sigh))! And of course Mr. T just HAD to do it! And what do you know, the little monkey climbed all the way to the TOP! He was the only one to go ALL the way up! It sort of scared me a little, I mean how safe are those REALLY!?! He was so proud of himself!
