Couple of funny stories:

-Someone in the parking lot at my work has a "0.0" sticker. Makes me laugh every time! Haven't had a chance to see who drives that car yet. Looks something like this one:

-Baby GTO (technically a toddler now) does the cutest thing at night. When we put him to sleep every night we hear him through the monitor listing everything he likes: Mommy, Papa, Benja, cars, cup, airplane, train, sausage, snack, boppie (pacifier), drink, etc.

-The other day we were visiting some friends and it was just me, my oldest, and Baby GTO in the backyard. Unfortunately, someone (possibly me) let one rip. Baby proceeded to take out his pacifier and let out a long raspberry imitating the sound he just heard. My son and I could not stop laughing for a good 5 minutes.

You should coach him to throw in the occasional "hookers" and "cocaine" in there so you can watch your wife's reaction.
 
I don't crave salty foods, give me all the sweets/chocolate. Which is dangerous when you bake and have almost a constant supply of baking goods on your hands. Like the other day I made ganache (basically heavy whipping cream and chocolate melted and stirred together) and just ate it straight up.

Our oldest quit growing about 3yrs go at age 11. From early height predictors, we thought she would get about 5'7". I always listed her at 5'2", but we had measured her at home and got 5'3". At the Dr she was 5'2 3/4" yesterday.

I would love to lose some weight, but pretty much have weighed about the same the past 3 years. I did pull out some jeans last weekend I hadn't worn in awhile and they fit better/looser so I will take that as a NSV (non-scale victory).

Okay, last randomness here. Last year I had gotten hubby and ISU rain gauge and he finally put it up a couple weeks ago. It is just a one piece plastic one with a steak to put it in the ground. He wanted to attach it up high to the fence post outside, so attached it with zip ties. First time it rains I ask him how he is going to empty it. Huh, didn't think that one through . . . .

Depending how the rain gauge is attached to the steak, he could just eat the steak, remove the rain gauge and empty it out.

How does a steak attach to the ground? If a ribeye, I'd probably eat it and it would never go up.
 
medical question. What is the best ways to get rid of foot corns? I tried trimming it and that was a temporary fix and concerned my son when he watched me with a buck knife make blood start running down the knife and foot. That just made a mess.

Sorry Birdy, I hadn't made a bad dad joke today.

I am kinda chuckling about him zip tying the rain gauge because I could totally see myself doing that.

How about shoes and boots that fit your feet? o_O
