The Ride Home

On the way to Grandma and Pop's, Tot fell asleep. They had both been eating lollipops... and it made for a cute picture (click to enlarge):

Tater waited until we left Grandma and Pop's to fall asleep. He should have known better. (click to enlarge)

The Autograph Book

Tink bought Tater an autograph book. It was amazing how quickly he caught on to how that worked.

King Louie ate Tater's autograph book!!! Of course he had to cough it up again and give it back. King Louie isn't able to sign the books... so he plays around with them. I wish I had been on the other side so you could have seen Tater's face! (click to enlarge pictures)

Wonderful Time

Funny how when we started out, Tater was glued to Mom or Dad. But as the day progressed... he decided he liked Z better. She was great with him as well. It's hard to believe how much she paid attention to him and talked to him. Made the trip well worth it. And here is a picture of the two:

6 Months Is All It Takes

Amazing. 6 months ago and Tot would have been running in the other direction from any character he saw. This time he actually walked up and hugged Pinocchio. Just too cute for this mom:

Like Totally Dude

Have you been to Disney World lately? No? You gotta go. Are you a total geek? Yes? Then you have to go check out the newest entertainment at Epcot. Turtle Talk with Crush. Totally awesome. This is Crush the surfer dude turtle from Nemo. My hubby and I are still discussing how they got Crush to talk to the kids. It is v.e.r.y interactive. Did you record a bunch of words and have someone type them in? How is he able to do the names of the children so well? Or is it someone on a microphone? Then how is the mouth of the turtle doing so well at moving with the words? I'm telling you... this is great for a geek as well as children under the age of 8. Not sure if older kids would really care.

And I can't let you go without showing you a picture of Tater and his Cousin Z. Here is a picture of the kids in front of the Living Seas:

Back from Mickey World

Had a blast visiting with in-laws and my sister. More later... nice to be home.

Humor for Dreaded Wednesday

Some old, some new... all made me smile.

1. Ever wonder about those people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backwards: NAIVE

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

2. OK.... so if the Jacksonville Jaguars are known as the "Jags" and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are known as the "Bucs," what does that make the Tennessee Titans?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

3. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea...does that mean that one enjoys it?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

4. There are three religious truths:
    a. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.
    b. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian faith.
    c. Baptists do not recognize each other in the liquor store or at Hooters.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

5. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

6. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

7. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~! *~*~*~*

8. Why do croutons come in airtight packages? Aren't they just stale bread to begin with?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

9. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a racecar is not called a racist?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

10. Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

11. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

12. If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

13. Do Lipton Tea employees take coffee breaks?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

14. What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

15. I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older; then it dawned on me .they're cramming for their final exam.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


16. I thought about how mothers feed their babies with tiny little spoons and forks, so I wondered what do Chinese mothers use? toothpicks?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

17. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do, write to them? Why don't they j ust put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen can look for them while they deliver the mail?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

18. If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*

19. You never really learn to swear until you start working for Texas Dept Of Corrections.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

20. Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would be if it didn't zigzag?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

21. If a cow laughed, would milk come out of her nose?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

22. Whatever happened to Preparation A through G? (this one may need to be read twice?.it will come to you)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

23. As income tax time approaches, did you ever notice: When you put the two words "The" and "IRS" together it spells
"THEIRS"? (It so clear now! )

Toys for Mom

Every mom has toys that she would love to have... here are a couple of mine (click on link to see pictures and descriptions):

Bluetooth Keyboard

Or Powerpocket, Foldable Portable Solar

Or these Cube World, Digital Interactive Stick People... which probably wouldn't have interested me as much until I read that they fart. I know the men in my life would love it. And I would need at least 3.

And this is just too cool... a tape timer.

Any one of these Kitchen Items would be great.

What about you? Any toys you would love to have but would never spend the money on it?

50/50

You Are 50% Boyish and 50% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.
Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.
You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.
You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.


Interesting.. I did something similar about a year ago and got more male than female... and how about you? Are you female? Male? Does it match?
