Favorite new pasttime

Brayden Lee's new favorite pasttime is playing with a squirt bottle filled with water. Unfortunately, he hasn't figured out how to spray it forward, so when he does get it to spray, he sprays it in his own face 90% of the time!

Joey thinks he's hiding

Can you find Joey?
Here he is!!! Hiding in the Fischer-Price garage I bought for Brayden... he thinks he needs an oil change, I guess. Sunrise on 09/28/07 in my back yard... sure was pretty!

Starting off my day with a smile

Jeff got up early and went out to a few yard sales, but I needed to catch up on some sleep, so decided not to go with him. I got up around 7:30, and was in the bathroom when I heard the phone ring. I answered it, and got no response, but I could tell someone was on the other hand. I said, "Hello?" again..no response. I then heard banging around in the background and thought it might be my daughter washing dishes.. so I said, "Hello?" again... and got this little voice that said...
 
"Hey....Umma!"
 
LOL! My grandson cannot say "Gramma" and when he tries, the word comes out "Momma". I believe this morning he was surprised to hear me and turned to his mother to say "Hey, I got Gramma on the phone!" 
 
I haven't stopped smiling yet.

OK, so tilt your head to the left - it's worth it! :)

Court Won't Declare Chimp a Person Sep 27, 9:01 AM (ET)By WILLIAM J. KOLE VIENNA, Austria (AP) - He's now got a human name - Matthew Hiasl Pan - but he's having trouble getting his day in court. Animal rights activists campaigning to get Pan, a 26-year-old chimpanzee, legally declared a person vowed Thursday to take their challenge to Austria's Supreme Court after a lower court threw out their latest appeal. A provincial judge in the city of Wiener Neustadt dismissed the case earlier this week, ruling that the Vienna-based Association Against Animal Factories had no legal standing to argue on the chimp's behalf. My comment: Lucky for some that the courts can't reverse it and give some people the same status as chimps... For one person I know in particular, it would be a step up in the world.
