Freudian Slip...

This absentee ballot was sent out to voters in Rensselaer County in New York state. Photo credit: Albany Times Union newspaper(CNN) — Some are calling it a Freudian slip. Everyone’s calling it a big mistake.
Hundreds of absentee ballots sent to voters in New York State’s Rensselaer County, near Albany, were printed with Barack Obama’s last name spelled as “Osama," the Albany Times Union reports.
County elections officials tell the newspaper that it was a typo that made it by three rounds of proof-readers. They also said the error affected just a few hundred voters, and that they will re-send corrected ballots on request.

Fun facts.....

Body count. In the last six months:
*292 killed (murdered) in Chicago (this in a city/county where handguns have been banned since 1980!) 221 killed in Iraq

*Sen. Barack Obama, Sen. Dick Durbin, Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., Gov. Rod Blogojevich, House leader Mike Madigan, Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike), Mayor Richa rd M. Daley (son of Mayor Richard J. Daley)...the political leadership in Illinois...are all Democrats. Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago . Of course they're all blaming each other. Can't blame Republicans 'cuz there aren't any!

*State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in country.

*Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25% highest in country. Chicago school system one of the worst in country.

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois ...and he's gonna 'fix' Washington politics? Yeah, right!

Heelarious....

Okay, so I can now say that I have seen it all. High heeled shoes for infants. I know that I may be sick and twisted, but I LOVE these. I'm just sad that they didn't have (or I didn't know about) these when Bailey was still a non-walker. Am I the only one that thinks these are too, cute?!?!?!

NEMO, nemo, nemo nemo.....

My kid is officially obsessed with Nemo. We took her to the Long Beach Aquarium a few weeks ago, and she loved it.

Forever....

Okay so it's forever since I posted, but it's been CRAZY! We've had a lot of firsts lately. Two of the most important carnival ride and 1st pony ride (got to get them started early, right Jen.)

Busy bee!

It's been chaos around my house lately. I started a new job with a major defense contractor in July, my mom and sister came into town for Miss B's 2nd birthday and this week we have Joe's parents. So needless to say it's been a little busy around my house lately. I need to post some new pictures of the curtain climber...she's getting so big it's amazing. I went through some her clothes the other day..and I got a little baby fever. I go back and forth being ready for number two, I really liked being pregnant after the 4 months of horrendous morning (wait...it was all day/night) sickness, and she was such a good baby, she slept through the night at around 8 weeks and for the most part was so happy. Makes me wonder if I would be so lucky with number two...and she is easy now. Completely out of diapers and loves her school, so why fix a good thing, but even if we got pregnant within the next 6 mos they would be about 3 years apart which I think would be perfect cause my sister and I are 5 years apart and I almost think that was too far apart. So here is my dilemma...how many years apart is too many and how much harder is it with two kids vs. one.
