Boole

Am I the only person to have seriously considered naming a future child (or dog) one of the random letter configurations they give you as security confirmations on the internet?
Upecion, anyone?  Or how about Equiti?  Croises?  Samporsu?  Lealk?  Ingshi?  Elinglai?  Soreesqu?  Ining?  Chedrin?
Nobody better try to steal any of these names from me.

Guy Love

I'm working my way through all seasons of "Scrubs" again (thanks Addie, I will get them back to you soon!).  This is the best show ever.  I feel like I have most of the seven seasons on disc memorized.  It is pure genius.  Here is one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite episodes, which I just watched last night and am still laughing about.

Random Shots

Maggie started eating rice cereal this week.  For those of you wondering if Maggie looks like Tjabe did as a baby, here is a picture of her first eating experience:

And here is Tjabe's:

Obviously one of the big differences is that we have a nicer camera this time.  And Maggie has more hair.

Maggie has also begun eating her foot, which you may remember Tjabe doing if you knew him then.  Here she eyes the prey:

And now for a picture of Tjabe blowing bubbles on a beautiful day this week, with his buddy Austin:

And we'll close with a shot of Maggie getting whisker-tickled by Daddy (I love this picture):

I told you it was random shots.

How Potty Training Changed My Life

  • Every time I see something small and brown on the floor, my first thought is that it is a turd.
  • My cleanliness standards have diminished, slightly.  Yet I still clean the toilet seat several times a week.
  • I actually cried tears of joy when Tjabe pooped on the toilet for the first time.
  • My two new mottos that keep me sane: "Urine is sterile" and "With enough soap, everything washes off."
  • Tjabe consistently incorporates "potty talk" into our dinner prayers: "Dear God, thank you for this food and that I go poop and pee on the potty but sometimes not at the same time and then I get cherries and to watch a movie and I don't go poop in my underwear because then I get a cold shower."

Pretty Girl

Here are some  pictures of Maggie from yesterday.  Tjabe looked dashing too in his Easter best, but every time I tried to take a picture he looked grumpy.
