So many things to catch up on










































Some day soon I'll be able to post more often so I don't have a mile long blog entry to try and fill you in on our lives for the past few weeks. It's 11:30pm on July 4th and I can't sleep. It's a combination of the obnoxious people setting off fire crackers and fireworks that sound like bombs going off in my backyard, and the dog freaking out because of it. Hopefully it dies down soon... I'm exhausted. Farrah is officially 7 months although I won't mention much about that or include her 7 month pictures because I'll make a separate post about that to give it all the attention it deserves. I don't think I mentioned Father's Day yet (that's how bad of a blogger I've been.) These pictures of Farrah and her daddy are from Father's Day...that's right Father's Day. I do realize it's now July 4th. Maybe by the time Labor day rolls around I'll have some July 4th pictures and stories for you. In the meantime here's how Abe's first Father's day went. As you can see from the pictures they got all dressed up and matching to have their pictures unprofessionally taken my me. They weren't going anywhere, just wanted to look snazzy for their pictures. Although Abe did get to DJ a Father's day party at a Country club later that day. He had to work in the afternoon and evening so I made sure to make our morning fun. I cooked breakfast (weight watchers recipe woot woot) and since we're trying to save money Farrah and I made his present. I know that's all he would want anyway. I decided to stamp Farrah's hand and foot prints on a piece of cardstock and write "Happy Father's Day 2010" on it and have it framed. Sounds simple enough but to try to make it more special, I thought I would video tape the whole process. So when he was at work, I set up the video camera and sat down with Farrah on the floor to try to stamp her hands and feet. Jimmy Choo came over to try to "help" but was getting in the way and trying to lick the ink. Then just as we were about to start I caught a whif of something special and smelled Farrah's bumm and realized she had pooped. I started cracking up in the video because I realized that this is our lives. Dog in the way, kid poops, then tries to eat the paper upon which we're trying to make the "perfect" gift for daddy. I didn't know it at the time but when I got up to turn off the video camera, Farrah's poop had made it's way onto my lap... HOT!
Sometimes life seems so crazy I want to cry and sometimes it seems so crazy I have to laugh.... it seems that I'm finding more and more reasons to laugh.
