Whatchu talkin 'bout Willis Wednesday

This is just so I can set the record straight. I really don’t look that much like Brett Farve. I have a receding hairline. He doesn’t.

Baby Shower #1

Here are a few pictures from the baby shower that my aunts hosted for me this past saturday.

Thanks to everyone who came and shared the day with L.B.J. and me. It was a ton of fun!

Expert Feeder

Last night Jared and I had a discussion about bottle feeding LBJ. I will spare you some of the details but I will tell you that the conversation centered around how it might be hard to get a baby who is used to nursing to take a bottle.

Well to my surprise Jared informed me that he is an expert at feeding babies a bottle. That is baby animals.....sheep and cows. He continued to inform me that he has some tricks up his sleeve to encourage the baby to take the bottle. Such as put a little bit of the milk on the nipple of the bottle or move the baby's mouth to get them used to the movement necessary to get the milk to come out. (Sorry Jared if these tricks were to remain secret.)

Needless to say, Jared can add this knowledge of how to get babies (baby animals anyways) to take a bottle to the vast variety of skills he has aquired from growing up on a dairy farm. I really do have full confidence that he will try his hardest to continue to uphold his "Expert Feeder" title with LBJ.

Recently Retired?

Here is a picture of my dad on his first day of work at his new job with Menard's.

As you can tell it is really dark outside in the windows in the background. That is because he will be working the early morning shift and if you know my dad he is an early riser so this shift is great for him. He also got placed in the hardware department. So long story short he will be working at his ideal part time job. Congrats Dad on your new job! You definitely earned it after 30 some years of teaching those crazy 5th graders:)

Oh and mom don't worry we know that your ideal job after retirement will start once you have a grandchild to spoil. And hopefully Erin and Jason will get with the program and double your job responsibilities.

Best financial advice ever

My buddy Mark posted this on his blog. Leave it Saturday Night Live to create a humorous skit on such a simple idea (that is so lost on many people).
