Reasons to have Children

1.  Adore and love them.

2. Someone to mow the lawn.

3. Watch a part of you and your spouse grow into loving adults to continue your family legacy.

4. Someone to shovel snow.

5. Perpetuate the  species.

6. Make fun of them.














I love you, son! No, I really do! I'm just immortalizing you in one of the best movies of all time. That's all.

Oooo, that smarts!

MonkeyBoy has been showing signs of teething for weeks. What I thought were signs of acid reflux may have actually been blisters of his bottom teeth coming in.













I feel so bad for the little dude. If his teeth were coming in when the average baby's came in, he would already be able to hold teething toys and soothe himself. Since he's only two and a half months old, when he notices the pain, he's one unhappy dude. He doesn't like to chew on anything other than his shirts and mom and dad's thumbs.

Not looking forward to the day those bad boys cut... and just when we got the breast feeding down pat.

Do they make nipple shields in a stainless steel variety?
