Don't worry Mom, he won't be retarded

Mom is convinced that Maddox was going to have to wear a helmet and ride the short bus if he did not learn how to crawl. I kept telling her that Maddox was just going to skip crawling. He is obsessed with pulling himself up on everything and then lets go and balances for about 30 seconds before falling down and starting the whole process over again. So here is video evidence that Maddox is crawling and that both hemispheres of his brain are working properly.



The first one has a bit of a shadow so here is another one just in case Mom decides I used a stunt baby to placate her fears.







This, however, may prove Mom right. This is a game we like to play where I take a soft soccer ball and bounce it off Maddox's face. He loves every minute of it.










Think of it as early training on how to head a soccer ball. Use your forehead kid, not your face.

Suffer the little dinos to come unto me

This picture I ran across makes me laugh every time. At the first debate for the Republican presidential candidates, three of them raised their hands when asked who didn't believe in evolution.

Walk it off

Not your usual trip to the amusement park.

Not everyone gets to be an astronaut

Science confirms the obvious.

Fly fishing season is upon us

The girls are honing their skills. We're heading up to Big Cottonwood in a few minutes to try our luck.

kitten!

I came out of work two nights ago and my car was parked way out in the boondocks of the mall parking lot. As I came to my car I heard a wee cry and there was this cute kitten!

...next to its dead mom cat. But one person's dead cat is another person's (me) acquisition of an awsome kitten. Shim is great! It follows me everywhere, sleeps in the crook of my neck, took only one day to potty train the little rat thing, sits on my lap while I eat dinner, and on my shoulder while I go grocery shopping or run errands. I love it.

but now it needs a name and mom's suggestions pretty much blow...

woody?

grillbo? ...because i found him outside of my restaurant, Woodranch BBQ and Grill.

Thank you Judge Sauer

Surely I'm not the only one getting a warm fuzzy from Paris going back to jail.

Happy Birthday To Me

What have I done so far? Nothing! Ha!

Thanks for the emails and messages. We're going out this weekend as both Jen and I had to work today. The girls are out of school now and can dedicate themselves to harassing me full time.

Also, make the world a better place by sending someone a card that's 110 percent awesome.
