"Oh No! What have I done?!!"

New Year's Fun

Pumpkin Pie is enjoying a new game with daddy... he laughs hysterically and dramatically, and she laughs for real... then we all laugh for real because it's so funny. ahh... good times, good times...

Too juicy not to share

This video reminds me of another video posted once upon a time:



Here's the story: I was reading a blog I occasionally visit, which lead had this video from Nick Jr.'s Yo Gaba Gaba!.... I had to find out more, and thus it went to find this song. Anyway, I couldn't keep something like this to myself.

Your welcome.

Is this why you all like your coffee so much?

Piggies

This little piggy went to market
This little piggy stayed home
This little piggy ate roast beef
This little piggy had none
and
This little piggy went... wee wee wee wee all the way home.

So, I was playing this beloved classic game with pumpkin the other day... she's not quite into it yet, but nonetheless... anyway, it suddenly and shockingly occurred to me that piggy number 2 "stayed home" and piggy number 5 "went all the way home" thus, they would end up at the same place... the neck. Why on earth is piggy number 2 at the neck? this is disturbing!

No neck toes for us thank you very much. Maybe "home" should wind back down to the foot again from now on. Just something to think about.

what the heck???

So I was looking on craigslist this morning for baby stuff, and I found this. It's supposed to be a Halloween costume. I think it's kinda funny and scary all at the same time.

new blog

Hey guys,

I just got us started on a blog called Oh Goodness!, at least for now, and the link is on this page under links. Anyway, the idea is we can share delicious recipes or good ideas, like favorite books, or crafts that are amazing and what not. I started us out with a few recipes, just to get it going and share the love. I'd love to hear what's cooking in your corners as well!

love,

BJ

Already?

Hey everyone-

I was just looking at the blog and came across "Show me the list!". Its about that time again, so hey, lets update our lists for this year or make a new one. Plus, there are two new family members to add! Its nice to have an idea bank to see what everyone in interested in or could use.

So here's to lists and not getting stuff we don't need!

Doggy Poo Trailer

Here's a video we recently watched... the voice-over and pace is a bit wanting, but the message is good- everyone needs a purpose especially when you feel like sh*t.

He's a star!

Hey guys!

Here is a little video made by Aaron's sister, Nikki, and grandma, Zella; I thought you might enjoy it.

Love you all!

O so funny

cap'n danger baby chute!

Came across this at Archie McPhee's. Too funny not to share. I think Basil needs this.

Hello from County Down!

Hi, family! Just dropping a note to say hello from Northern Ireland. We're having a wonderful time getting to see the wee bit of the country where Korina is living. The countryside is gorgeous out here -- lush green farmland covers rolling hills everywhere you turn. The weather has been a bit... adventurous. We've had snow coming in sideways the last 2 days, but it hasn't been sticking, and it's interspersed with rain that washes it away soon enough. There's been a bit of sunshine, but rain and wind has been a lot more consistent. It's supposed to clear up the rest of the week -- we hope! -- so that should make the rest of the sightseeing and shopping fun.

We got to spend Thursday through Sunday hanging out with Korina. Our first day we were exhausted after an 8-hour negative timezone change and 20 hours of travel on 2 hours of sleep, so there wasn't much we could do even though we arrived at 7am. Driving here hasn't been as rough as I thought it would be, so on Friday we drove an hour north to Belfast to return our automatic car for a smaller, sportier manual-shift rental. Driving that on these winding country roads is a blast, but the locals seem to think I'm going pretty slow! We spent the rest of Friday walking around Belfast. Saturday was St. Patty's Day and we wanted to stay away from the raucous crowds, so we took a picnic lunch to Tollymore Forest and got to wander around the inspiration for some of Lewis and Tolkein's best adventures. Sunday we visited some of the smaller local towns (Castlewellan, Dundrum, & Newport); Dundrum Castle was incredible!

After a more relaxing day today -- more bad weather kept us from doing any outdoor sightseeing -- we'll be driving down into the Republic of Ireland tomorrow to see Dublin. It's been wonderful getting to see Korina. We're having some of her friends over on Wednesday to play games and eat chocolate chip banana bread (!); everyone we've met so far has been very friendly. There's a cow in the field next door that seems pretty grumpy, but I'll win him over by the end of the week. Amy says that she's only said "Shaug" once, at the airport (oops!), and "pants" once, in a shop, but the lady we were standing next to seemed pretty understanding ;)

We love you guys, and we'll see you all soon!
