Join Us

Daddy got the new They Might Be Giants CD today, and while it isn't a project aimed at children, that doesn't mean Madison won't be listening to some of their kids music, or even watching some of the DVDs such as "Here Comes the ABCs."

At bedtime, Madison has had Lady and the Tramp with her each night, which made for a straight up sort of bedtime story this evening: Daddy told the story of Lady and the Tramp. When done, Madison stretched out her arms to show Daddy, "That was a biiig story."

Nana and Ba-Ba went to see a big tennis match in Atlanta today, but boy was it hot. It sort of wears you down! They all got little fans to use, and gave Madison one of them - it has a picture of a tennis ball on it.

It wasn't a terribly eventful day for Madison, although her potty training is nearly complete. This past month has been a landmark month - she's just about mastered it, and we're pretty close to giving her a merit badge.

Here is what it should look like. We'll add that to the other merit badges on the list! Speaking of which, we've got another great theme and series coming up in August for KidPak - this one is called, "Roughin' It." It is one we've done before, but it was a good one. Daddy should be able to take a minor break from writing, and focus on a lot of other things. Another thing that Daddy can do is enjoy the series more, and do thing related to it. For example: we can set up a tent in the back yard! Wouldn't that be great? Can't wait to post some pictures of that, where Madison, Mommy and Daddy do a mini-camping expedition in our own back yard!
