{This & That}

Little Clay is getting bigger. 

He weighed 5 pounds 4 ounces at birth.

 Two weeks later he's put on another pound.

 I had forgotten about the myriad of faces babies make...

Reed loves to give Clayton props.

Here he is having Clay shoot him...

(someone has to teach him what being an American is all about... I kid.. kind of)

Months ago Fiona made a flyer for a pet sitting business.
Her services are free as she just misses having a pet.

Wouldn't you know, she finally got her first two clients.

The other day I let the kids watch Scooby Doo on television. 
 As you'd expect commercials interrupted the show.  

Fiona asks Reed: What happened to Scooby Doo? 
 Reed: Oh we just miss parts of it so they can show us these previews.
Me: You don't miss parts. They pause the show and these are called commercials. 

Part of me is proud that at the ages of 7 & 8 they are learning about television commercials for the first time.  Another part of me worries that we've kept them too naive for too long.
 (I should mention that they do watch videos just not telly as our Australian Reed would call it)



Here's a little video of our January 4th - 11th.
It feels good to do something with all those mobile phone clips I have.
If only I could keep up with them.
