My Mother-in-Law laughed at this one.

JOE's opus continues...

Today we venture to home of JOE's parents where we have been kindly offered a much needed break in the midst our 12 hour drive to Albuquerque. Tony and I have enjoyed the company of JOE's whole clan before today. We once went on a fine camping trip with the whole group (minus one member still in school).

Car trips have taken on a whole new meaning for me now that a small person is sitting on my bladder and causing my hips to ache pretty much constantly. I have been instructed to get out and walk every two hours. This goes against all my road trip instincts. Like everyone raised in the southwest I am a professional car-tripper. I have amused myself (sans radio) staring out the window of our station wagon for up to 20 hours at a stretch. The only stops were for gas and 5 minuet bathroom breaks. In my mind nothing short of a blown tire breaks up a a road trip.

I feel like such a pansy.

However, not wishing to piddle in the car I will do as my doctor suggests.

Happy Travels to you all.

Sleep, that's where I'm a Viking!

I can't believe that I haven't done this before now. Want to make your own Simpson avatar?

First baby thingies

My fantastic sister and brother (in-law) gave us our very 1st baby outfit. I like the subtle programing for the baby.
"Prefer Mommy above all others"

I wholeheartedly approve since Tony has superhuman baby enticing abilities. During church services all the babies in front of us reach for Tony as if he were a giant neon Elmo doll.

Speaking of firsts, my Mom just found the baby it's first book: "Sheep in Shops"

Thank you family members for providing lovely treasures for our developing kid.
