I want to rock and roll all night, and POTTY every day!

Big, exciting news in our household. Huge, even! THIS has been part of the bedtime routine for the last few weeks :-)





I know it's early, and I know it's probably just the luck of good timing, but Graham's getting pretty good at this whole "pee-pee in the potty" thing. I've been sitting him on it in the mornings before changing into his school clothes, and at night, just before bath or PJ time. And usually (and by usually, I mean 90% of the time), he'll actually GO in the potty. We've even gotten lucky a few times during the day and he's actually done more than just pee-pee in the potty. But I didn't take pictures of that, because let's admit it, no one likes to look at their own turds, let alone someone else's, right?!?!?

Belated Ball Game

Ok, ok, I apologize for letting our blog die a slow, boring death. Admittedly, it's all my fault -- or, more accurately, all my thumb's fault. Not knowing my own strength, I decided to ram my thumb through the screen of my laptop, rendering it completely useless. And it's kind of hard to blog without a computer, so..... yeah, you got a whole whoppin' three posts in September. My apologies. I'm now coming at you from a super industrial-strenght, slower than molasses desktop, but hey, I hear these things are a bit harder to destruct, so here's hopin'.......

While the Tigers were making a run for the playoffs (before they blew it), we took Graham to his very first ball game at Comerica Park. He LOVED it! Despite the cold weather, the layers upon layers of clothing we bundled him up in, and the lateness of the evening, he was an angel, completely enthralled with the action, the people, and the lights. Unfortunately, the Tigers lost, thus dashing out hopes of some October ball, but we still had a great time, and cannot wait to bring Graham along to a few more games next year.

Seriously, have you ever seen anything more beautiful?


Ahhhh, there's no place like home!


I've waited my whole life to take a picture like this!

Freezing and tired, but still having fun!
