It's All About Nay Today

Finally..... SOME GOOD SHOTS OF NAYDINE.

Thanks to everybody who has given me input on how to improve with this new camera. And thanks, Naydine, for finally looking at the camera. I appreciate it, babe.

Also, a shout out to Mary for giving me my first html modification experience and helping me fit my picture into my new header:) Hard times, I tell ya!









The park has been our new hangout. We've gone there 4 times in the last 2 days. Haha.. It was something like 80 yesterday and um, 80 today? If not, pretty close. Close enough for this girl. I LOVE IT. Wait till I'm complaining about the heat and humidity in a month or two!

Dane is going to be the bench warmer for this post. He's been in the spotlight with his pretty blue eyes long enough. Hello, fun girl:








And for dinner tonight, I made a sushi-grade Tuna steak sandwich. Delicious. Have you had?

STUPID BLOGGER

So... a few people have emailed me and asked how to update the header in Blogger and make it work right.
It's mass confusion. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't? Maybe it has something to do with the retarded templates... maybe not. Who knows.
I've just tried to resize my header about 80 times to make it fit right and it's just not going to work today. It's not bad but.... it's still not in the box.
Now, if there is somebody out there that does know the rhyme or reason to the header picture fitting in the designated area, please, share.
And I shouldn't call the templates retarded. It's just my personal opinion that I am sick of them. And if I knew anything about html or keeping my widgets to use a custom template, I would. So, I'm at fault.

Now, a few things I need to note about my children so that I can look this up at a later date.

• Naydine, at the ripe age of 2.5, has BIT somebody for the first time. Not just somebody, but her little brother, Boo Baby. HOW DARE SHE?!! In the tub, on the right shoulder. NAUGHTY!
• Dane, you hold the record for most pee's on the floor without drinking alcohol. 3 in one hour. What were you thinking? I was just trying to let your raw, teething butt cheeks air out and you pee by the couch (and play in it!), in front of the tub, and on my bed? HOW DARE YOU?
• Naydine, I had to spank you in the parking lot the other day because you threw a fit getting in the car seat. Which, you have NEVER done before. You love the Britax. Anyway, spanking in the parking lot is risky. I spanked you on your pants, not your bare buns. And my word, you had it coming. Only downfall to this, some EMT's (who were off duty and smoking in the parking lot) were watching me like they were going to call 911 and have you taken away from me. Yeah.... they made me feel like that mom who, a couple of years back, was caught on camera punching her kid in the face! I'm just wondering if they'd have rather me just shut the car door and drove home with you free to wander in the backseat? Being they were EMT's and all..... I'm sure they've seen some bad accidents where the kids weren't buckled up.

Other than that, I am anxiously awaiting my mpix order. I'm totally wing'n it here. Am I supposed to calibrate my monitor or something like that? haha... let me know, pros!

I don't know if all of this is true but...

A little over one year ago:

1. Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high
2. Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon
3. The unemployment rate was 4.5%

Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we've seen

1. Consumer confidence plummet
2. The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3 a gallon
3. Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase)
4. American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses)
5. Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars
6. 1% of American homes are in foreclosure

I know I won't be winning an Democratic readers here but..... just thought I'd post it anyway.

11 months, 2 weeks

And, we finally have a tooth. Well, you can't actually see it. You can feel it. It's just broke the skin. It'll be interesting to see how his look changes once he has teeth. Not that he could get an cuter:) hehe... kidding y'all (that's me trying to have a southern accent!)

Easter Sunday

It was a pretty good Easter. Besides the fact that every holiday, Eli must be absent. Oh, and we did eat Mac-n-Cheese and peas. High class. And Naydine thought all the eggs were for her and Dane couldn't touch any of them!
But really, church was good. It was fun to see the kids dressed so cute and Naydine trying to find all the eggs in the yard. They really are a joy!




These 2 places were my ULTIMATE hiding spots! Haha kids... I still have you beat!


And then Eli made a 6 minute appearance. Which was good since he hadn't seen the kids in 4 days and he's working 10 miles from the house. Naydine is MISSING her daddy!! And Dane.. oh my word, totally misses Eli too. I think I must be NO fun compared to Daddy!!

I think I may have answered a few questions incorrectly

Lord knows that I'd be called the COLON, though. What the crap???? No pun intended... SERIOUSLY! I must have mis-answered a few questions.... I think I could be the explanation point too.... I need to see if Eli is the semicolon. Haha.. does that mean it's a HUGE colon? Ok.. I'm done!!

You Are a Colon

You are very orderly and fact driven. You aren't concerned much with theories or dreams... only what's true or untrue. You are brilliant and incredibly learned. Anything you know is well researched. You like to make lists and sort through things step by step. You aren't subject to whim or emotions. Your friends see you as a constant source of knowledge and advice. (But they are a little sick of you being right all of the time!) You excel in: Leadership positions You get along best with: The Semi-Colon

I know, I know....

Poor excuse for a Blogger, huh? Well, I've been busy.... But Eli goes back to work tomorrow and I'll get my blog time back. Hehe...

Here is some stuff I've been working on. I brought Naydine to a Princess Party for her friend Abby a few weekends ago and took some shots of a few kids there. Thought the moms might like some of this stuff....

See you tomorrow Blog World!!
