Batter Up!

Yesterday, while Max and I were playing outside I realized that he doesn't have many toys for outside. So, while we were out and about today I bought him a t-ball set. He was so excited to open it when we got home. I set it up inside so he could play with it and he just loves it. Tug, we might need you to come over and be Max's swing coach.

The Back Yard

Max was introduced to the back yard yesterday, since the weather was so nice. He just loved it. I am hoping that since we will be playing alot out there this year that the snakes will go away. PS if anyone knows how to get rid of snakes, let us know. I have slaughtered many over the last 2 summers and the numbers are shrinking, but there is still the occasional one.

Pathetic

Did anyone see the Penn State /Illinois game last night??? 38-33 was the final score in case you didn't see or hear about it. Oh yeah, the Illini lost. And no, it was not because of suffocating defense, but rather a show of horrific shooting. Field goal percentages : 28% for Penn State and 30 % for the Illini, respectivley...then again not so much. I feel for you Illini fans because it's been a very inconsistent year. I read where one fan yelled I want my money back. By golly, I think they should give everyone their money back for that game. They could have seen an equally entertaining, or better, high school game for 1/4 the price of the shenanigans they saw.

PS- go Kansas

Big Helper

Max loves to help put dishes away. Today the cycle had just ended and the dishes were really hot. I told Max they were hot and he began to blow on them

Snuggie

Thats right. You have seen it on TV, now see it at the Yenchko's house. A snuggie! Justin and Martha got Kate a snuggie for her birthday. If you recall seeing them on TV they are absolultely stunning. They can be worn around the house or even to outdoor sporting events! I know you are already wondering...will that snuggie make an appearence this fall at an LHS game? The chances are strong, to quite strong

Baby TuTu....Jigga What??

The Tammany's and Schwab's came over for dinner last night, which is always a good time. After dinner, Ben, Justin and I dominated the Wii. The ladys however were creating something on the table. While taking a break from the intense competition I asked the ladys what they were making. Kate says, "a tutu for Charley". My first thought was, jigga what?? Kate said it will be so cute and it will probably be her Easter outfit. Will I ever get use to tutu's and dresses? I guess with this lil girl coming into our lives I am going to have to. Good news is that I have already started preparing a 50 page questionare for that dreaded day some young man wants to ask her out. Wherever you are lil man...I am already watching you.

Here is the tutu and a website incase you want to make one.

Toliet Brush Incident

Kate's birthday was at the begining of this month. While I was putting together her birthday present Jenny dropped Tug and Sam off for a little bit while she ran some errands. Well Max and Sam went down for a nap, so Tug helped me put together Kates present, which was a jewelry box/ stand that goes in the bathroom. Upon finishing putting it together I began transferring all jewelry from her old one to the new one. Meanwhile, Tug is right by my side saying, "What's this?, what's this? what's this?" I told him, a neckless, a ring, a hair brush. Well, he then says, "What's this?" and is brushing my head with something. I look up to see him brushing my head with the toliet brush- believe it! I told Tug thats nasty and we dont play with that and took several showers that day.
