66 Weeks Old!

No picture this week...I'll put one up either later tonight or tomorrow. We've been pretty busy the last couple days and I haven't even pulled the camera out once. Actually, I did put it in my bag today, but then forgot to take pictures. We met up with Henry's friend, Taylor, at Foothills Park this morning so they could splash around in the water before it got too hot to be outside. Tonight is a rehearsal dinner for Brett's friends' Brad and Crystal who are getting married tomorrow. Brett is a groomsman in the wedding which is being held at a vineyard outside of Salem. So we will be busy with wedding fetes all weekend!
Henry is doing well - walking, walking, walking. And asserting his own personal will more and more frequently in the form of temper tantrums, saying no, and doing things he knows he's not supposed to. We had our first dish casualty today when he threw down a bowl of pasta I had given him. My fault for trusting him with a ceramic dish. Of course the fact that it broke into a hundred pieces fascinated him and I caught him feverishly looking around for another one to toss overboard.
I can't resist commenting on the idiocy of Sarah Palin as I sit here typing this and watching the breaking news of her resigning her gubernatorial post a year and a half early without truly offering a reason why. Damn, that lady gives feminists a headache. Gotta love her family values though....in true Republican fashion she espouses the "do as I say, not as I do" belief system. Knocked up teenage daughter, leaving her kids (including an infant) to campaign, and now not fulfilling her elected duty. Solid. Yes, let's elect her to the White House. Perfect. I hope she announces she has some medical issue...at least that would provide some explanation for her lunacy.
