Here's a new sobriety test for you all...
Can you spot the differences between these two photos?
(If you can't, you are drunk. Now you know.)
If the difference is clear, you can make one of these and try again.
Have a silly weekend!

Rip It, Roll It and Punch It/Chumpiness
Gwyneth and I are getting ready to head out on a crazy day of errand running! We are going to "rip it, roll it and punch it"... Yes, I realize this is the second time this month I've illustrated my point with a video from Finding Nemo. We've gotta go to the bank, Petco, Staples, Fred Myers, fabric store and we have a two hour window to do it. G is only up in 1.5-2 hour increments between naps so once she's up it's time to go! I've got the diaper bag loaded and I'm jazzed up on two three cups of tea! Then, we've got to get home and get a good nap in because tonight is Poppy's graduation from preschool. I can't wait to watch that little chumpy officially become a big kid! I realize there may be some confusion over the term "chumpy". It's a great made up word.
Definition of CHUMPY

Poppyism
Poppy is obsessed with Baby G!
She LOVES her "sister". She is often very disappointed when Gwynnie is asleep. Hence the following Poppyism...
Wouldn't it be great if you had twins?! Then when one baby was sleeping the other one would be awake!!!
Meghan, Ryan and I.
Thanks Mom and Dad. Sorry 'bout that. Hee hee.

Something Silly

There Comes a Point
There comes a point in pregnancy when you are feeling pretty...
chubby...
grumpy...
frustrated...
a little batty...
delusionally tired...
and a little emotional.
It's hard to remember what you used to look like.
All you wanna do is overindulge...
and wave your white flag.
But, then... you're family comes to town and gives you a good reason to laugh.
Meghan, Rob (and Kyle) at the local bakery.
Now... as I've mentioned before, my belly button (while not inside out) has spent the last month looking suspiciously like a cat's behind. I'm sure someday it will return to normal, but in the meantime it's a lesson at learning to laugh at yourself even when you feel "all done". Meghan and Rob came over with my Dad and Stepmom for dinner and we "forced" my Dad to put his artistic skills to work in order to provide us some much needed laughter...
Heee heee heeee.
Sometimes (even after eight years), Kyle is forced to question the family he married into. We like to keep him on his toes.

Impromptu Egg Toss
The unfortunate egg:
The contenders:
The playing field:
The aftermath:
Ultimately, it was a good game played by all but I lost on account of a wonky toss. I knew something was wrong the moment the egg left my grip and Kyle couldn't get a clean catch. At least the egg was spared a bit by a clean decapitation.
