Got Hair?

One of these heads belongs to an infant (Tony), the other to an adult (Shades). If I were to take the time to photoshop out the surroundings, we'd have a really fun game on our hands!

Congratulations Shades on having more hair than a 6 week old infant. Alex has both of you beat though ;)

Sanity Test

When I'm exhausted, I find pretty much everything to be funny. Yesterday morning Striker assumed this position. When I asked what he was doing, he said "stretching". Is it as funny to you?

When All Else Fails...

Lower your standards.

I had lofty aspirations of taking weekly photos of the boys with them on the same background or next to the same stuffed animal (like Sydney and her ladybug). I also had aspirations of taking a monthly family photo. Matching/coordinated outfits for the boys were the plan.

Today I finally got them in coordinated outfits and took a picture when they were both awake and relatively happy. This counts! Were it not for my BlackBerry, I'd never have a camera on me for these glorious moments when the stars align. My goal is for a family photo at 2 months. Wish me luck!

Changing table update (For those of you who will continue mocking me until I use it): Still hasn't been used, but neither has the crib in their room. Once they start sleeping in their room, the changing table will be used. I'm standing by this statement.

Like Mother Like Son

This is how Alex chose to watch the Kings vs. Sharks game tonight. Just like his mother, he ate until his stomach was content, then promptly passed out.

Tony on the other hand, had Daddy give him the play by play and explain all of the important things to him (literally). He waited until the first intermission (almost) before he got his grub on.

Cranium Rocks

New favorite game!! Tonight we played WOW Cranium with the KFuj's, Lil Dahl, and Shades (Lil Dahl's boyfriend). We also played last night with Strikers parents and another friend, where I set precedent at being a good guesser at Puppet Master Cards.

For Puppet Master Cards one player makes another member of their team act out the activity or thing for another team member to guess. I correctly guessed "milking a cow" and "bobbing for apples" last night. Since none of tonight's guests witnessed my talent, I cautioned them that I rocked that particular type of card.
Apparently they didn't believe me, and when it came down to the game winning card, they selected the category containing the Puppet Master cards. Mr KFuj was the puppetmaster and Lil Dahl was the puppet. I correctly guessed "barista" to pull off our come from behind victory!

Side note: The game is also educational. Last night we learned the meaning of "skosh" and tonight we learned "eponym", both words that my BlackBerry underlined as misspelled.

Infant Thoughts

AJ: What is that thing? Dude, you're tiny! My diapers are bigger than you!

Tony: Holy crap, don't eat me! Or roll over on me, or kick me...That kid is HUGE!

Sticky Situation

This morning I saw this on my bathroom counter after Striker had left for work: empty bottle of gel, open toiletry bag, travel size gel tubes on counter - clearly he'd run out of gel getting ready and went for the reserves.

I sent him a BBM...
Wife: Need gel?
Striker: Yes. How could you tell?? LOL
Wife: Did you check cabinet in the hall?
Striker: No
Wife: Ok, I'll check when the boys finish eating
Striker: Ok

Wife: (sent picture of nice big bottle of gel in cabinet)
Striker: Excellent
Wife: LOL You know this is a blog right?
