Buh
The previous post is from the little lady's point of view.
Yesterday something really neat happened. I was feeding little sweet Phoe, when X-man walks in and points out the window "Buh", "Oh, yes." I say, "Is there a bird outside?". So I lean back and peek out of the wndow, there is but one bird in the yard. A single large bird of prey to be more specific, a Cooper's hawk to be exact. It was calmly chowing down on a dove. Feathers were scattered around in about a five foot area. It was so neat. I took two videos and almost fifty pictures of the spectacle. It made my day.

Having chicken parmasean for dinner tonight will make my day today.
Head Banging
I don't think there are many kids out there who can tell this story:
When I was just seven months old, my mom was giving me a bath just after I had this great big poop. Well, I was a slick little wet baby, and I slid right out of my mom's hands and at the very same instant she slipped on water that was on the floor next to the tub and fell into the tub on top of me bashing our heads together. So, in escence, she dropped me on my head and then fell on my head causing much crying from me, her and my three year old brother standing next to the tub.
And, yes, this is a very true story.
My head still hurts from it.
But I sure wish I had a picture of it.
Updates...
Right now, the little man is in the kitchen cooking some yummy scrambled rubber stamps and stewing some savory animal magnets.
On a side note, the little lady dances to music now. She loves to sway back and forth to some happening tunes, whether it is Phantom of the Opera or just me humming Phantom music.
Ah, I have been discovered. So I must go before he opens dozens of calculators on the screen.
Blast from the Past
I was checking to see if I had lost any of my old posts as I have found some other people who have had problems with the switch have. I read through some of my old posts. It is really amazing to look at the person I was back then. I have grown and matured and changed so much that it is really like looking at a stranger. Take for instance this excerp from a post from November of 2004:
"The days of a stay-at-home mom/housewife's life are not always filled with happy smiles whilst one changes poopy diapers. Nor does she particularly enjoy having to clean up every mess, make every meal, and generally cause happiness to shower forth upon the occupants of her abode. In fact, I am certain that sometimes she would personally like to bash in certain young people's heads."
You get the picture. This time around it is so much easier. Maybe it is because I am with my family, maybe it is because we don't have to worry about any sort of house payment, maybe it is because I am not the only wife/mom here now (that sounds really weird, we are not into polygamy). I do miss my MS-ians like crazy and wish that they could see this precious bundle of smiles. But it has seemed like a cakewalk compared to X-man's very young youth.
Blogger Beta
I am going to be switching to blogger beta, so the general appearance will probably be changing here soon. Hopefully nothing will be lost. Bear with me through these changes.
Thanks.
