Aunt Lucy

Eli in his 'jet jammies' that he probably won't fit for much longer (so sad) but I love the look on his face, so cute.
Aunt Lucy
My Aunt Lucy came to stay for a few days to help with the babies because they were getting shots (5 each). She darn near cried when the babies got their shots & then got each baby 2 stickers while I was signing forms "they got 5 shots they should get 5 stickers" but appearantly there was a limited quantity to chose from. She is the kindest person I think I know. I have always felt a special connection with her, She told me she has always felt that I was special. We always get along & laugh way too much even if I haven't seen her in 5 years (as was the case this week, practically * She had been living in Florida, until lately). She makes me wish I had that kind of easy going relationship with my mom, who at best is always tricky to deal with & not usually easy to get along with. My mother could not come & help because "she had to drop her husband off to work" (* not true he had a ride that week*) but hey to each his own. I just hope that my own neice feels the same way about me as I feel about my Aunt (I think she does). So anyway...

The week seemed long because the babies were cranky for a day or two. The doctor (Dr. DYK, really!!) asked me how much sleep they were getting at night & I proudly told him 4-5 hour! He said that babies at 9 weeks can sleep through the night & the next time one woke to soothe him/her & put them back to sleep without a feeding & see what happens. Okay night one a baby cries & Ronda gets up & feeds him (dispite the dr's adviice) Avery starts to cry while Rondsa is feeding Eli so I get up change her & put her back in the crib & rub her tummy, Voila' she slept all night. It only took 2 more nights of this for Ronda to catch on... So now my babies sleep 8 hour straight through!! YEA!!! anyway enjoy the pictures & notice hou all the animals seem to flock to Aunt Lucy!!

Gay Marriage

10 Reasons Gay Marriage Will Ruin Our Society

1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all;women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed;the sanctity of Britany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.

7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8 ) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.

9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adaptto new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sectoreconomy, or longer life spans.

Ahh officers

The following 15 Police Comments were taken off of actual police car videos around the country...
15 "Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they're new. They'll stretchout after you wear them awhile."..
14 "Take your hands off the car, and I'll make your birth certificate aworthless document."..
13 "If you run, you'll only go to jail tired."..
12 "Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? In case you didn'tknow, that is the average speed of a 9mm bullet fired from my gun."..
11 "So you don't know how fast you were going. I guess that means I can write anything I want on the ticket, huh?"..
10 "Yes, Sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don't thinkit will help. Oh, did I mention that I am the shift supervisor?"..
9 "Warning! You want a warning? O.K., I'm warning you not to do thatagain or I'll give you another ticket."..
8 "The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?"..
7 "Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go toride on rides, eat cotton candy, and step in monkey DOO."..
6 "Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toasteroven."..
5 "In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC."..
4 "Just how big were those two beers?"..
3 "No sir we don't have quotas anymore. We used to have quotas but now we're allowed to write as many tickets as we want."..
2 "I'm glad to hear the Chief of Police is a good personal friend ofyours. At least you know someone who can post your bail."And...............

THE BEST ONE !..

A pastor's ASS

A pastor entered his donkey in a race and it won.

The pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again, and it won again.
The local newspaper read: PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT.
The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the pastor not to enter the donkey in another race.
The next day, the local newspaper headline read: BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS. This was too much for the bishop, so he ordered the pastor to get rid of the donkey. The pastor decided to give it to a nun in a nearby convent.
The local paper, hearing of the news, posted the following headline the next day: NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The bishop fainted. He informed the nun that she would have to get rid of the donkey, so she sold it to a farmer for $10.
The next day the paper read: NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10.
This was too much for the bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back the donkey and lead it to the plains where it could run wild.
The next day the headlines read: NUN ANNOUNCES...HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE. The bishop was buried the next day.... The moral of the story is.... Being concerned about public opinion can bring you much grief and misery .. And even shorten your life. So be yourself and enjoy life

Damn, that boy makes a great coaster

Coming soon...

a clever post to Neenaville!! Really I mean it...Honestly...Shannon

Once again...Because I never 'stage' photos. Nope not me, no siree.

For Susan

Now on occasion I stage photos (see example #1) but the other day I went to check on the too quiet babies. When I arrived crib-side I found them holding hands, so cute(see #2). Finally since I posted a picture of the 'little man', I posted one of 'Tater' & her favorite mama. (#3) Loves ya'all!! Shannon

Am I really this old?

So this evening.... (after I volunteered at the Humane Society) I was struck by this...

The kids were asleep, I was making tea (yes tea) & watching a crime/drama type TV show. So the thought hits me I am an adult *GASP* for recap. I volunteered today, MY kids were asleep, TEA & Crime TV. I am just one generation from Agatha Christie!! Or Matlock, even Perry Mason, for craps-sake!!

So here is a picture to share it is Harry my kitty & Avery enjoying the play mat.
