Peter has learned how to get away with playing with his food. Ever heard of a love sandwich?

Peek-a-boo!
Candice seems to enjoy peek-a-boo more than any of our kids did at that age. Here are a few pictures I took of her playing peek-a-boo with her birthday card.
What Do We Do?
Luke took a video of Bethany feeding Candice that I just had to share, even though not much feeding happens. After giving Candice one bite, Bethany stands there looking from the camera to Candice. The quietness is amazing, and the expressions shared between them are so cute!

I’m in the Zone!
Ever try to choose a favorite post within a 30 day period? I did it 12 times! Wanna know why?
Roburt Hruzek over at Middle Zone Musings (thus the title of my post) hosted this blogapolooza for the month of January, and today was my day to be featured. It is basically my list of 12 favorite posts of 2008 (one per month) and a brief description of each!
Head on over and take a look. If you get a bit distracted by the posts of others besides me, that is okay (provided you DO eventually look at mine)! 😀 By the way, if you’re quick, you can get in on this year’s blogapalooza! But you better hurry! Tomorrow is the deadline!
Have fun!
What an Icicle!!
I posted a picture previously of a large icicle that formed outside our house. Now that a month has passed, I guess it is high time I tell you a little more about that miniature ice tower.
The snow only stayed on the ground a few days, and then the temperature went up into the 50’s. As the snow melted, this humongous icicle formed just outside our living room window.
After it had been there about a day, it dawned on me that it might hurt just a little bit if it fell on a person’s head, so I decided that it had to be knocked off (the icicle, that is). Since it was located outside our 2nd story living room widow, I opened the window from the top and stood on our couch with a bat in hand. Scared yet?
With an icicle that big, I knew I would have to hit it pretty hard to knock it down, but I decided to give it a little tap to see just how firmly it was attached. Amazingly my small tap brought the entire icicle down from the very top where it was attached to the roof! It was so loosely attached that a good wind would have brought it down!
When I went outside to check it out, there was one chunk about as big as my head! And I will be the first to admit, that is pretty BIG!! 😀
Wanna see again?
January 22, 1973
36 years ago today abortion became legal. About.com summarizes it this way:
The Roe v. Wade decision held that a woman, with her doctor, could choose abortion in earlier months of pregnancy without restriction, and with restrictions in later months, based on the right to privacy.
I know that I have a diverse group of readers, and some of you may be thinking, “Not abortion again. Do I really need to read this?” Stick around, so that, when I ask you if you did your homework, you can raise your hand. 😀
I have come across a site that explains things in a way I have never heard. Abort73.com* is an organization that
exists to demonstrate the simple truth that unborn human beings are fully qualified to be recognized as persons under the law and be protected from any assault that might befall them.
The video below can be found on their site, so you get a choice. Are you going to watch it here or there? Regardless of where you choose to watch, please help get the word out about abort73.com.
*This site contains some pictures that might turn your stomach, but only if you click on the “pictures that demonstrate” link.
Batman or Spiderman?
Normally when child wears an outfit as soon as he possibly can, it is because it is his favorite outfit. Apparently that is not so with Peter. Tonight he was wearing a pair of Batman pajamas that he wears a lot. Here is how the conversation went:
me: Hey Batman
Peter: I’m not Batman. I like being Spiderman!
me: I thought you liked Batman.
Peter: No, it’s Phillip that likes Batman.
me: Oh. Then why do you wear your Batman pajamas so much?
Peter: Because I want to hurry up and get them dirty, so I won’t have to wear them any more!
What a creative way not to have to wear a certain pair of pajamas. I would have never thought of it. As a kid, I would have been more likely to leave them in my drawer until I absolutely had to wear them, hoping that laundry would get done often enough that I didn’t have to wear them at all! I guess we don’t all think alike! What would you have done?
Christmas 2008 – Part 7
Well, since seven is the number of completeness, I decided to complete my series on our Christmas this year with a seventh post. Here are a few pictures of us enjoying Christmas together as a family! Hope you had a great Christmas 2008 and are very productive in this newborn year.
An Unwrapped Gift
We do not usually wrap our gifts to the kids, but this year a friend gave them gifts, too. For some reason, she wrapped the girls gifts’ but not the boys’. I didn’t notice, but evidently Peter is more observant than I am.
Peter: Mom, how come Anna got a present to unwrap on Christmas, and I didn’t?
me: Because the person who gave it to you decided not to wrap yours.
Peter: But I wanted to unwrap a present.
me: You should be thankful you got the gift and not worry about whether it was wrapped.
Peter: (thinking)
me: Did you know the best gift given to anyone was not wrapped? Jesus wasn’t wrapped.
Peter: Yes, he was. He was wrapped up inside his mommy. (so much for that idea)
me: Well, lets look at this situation positively. What nice thing could you say about not getting a wrapped present?
Peter: Congratulations, Anna?
