although NOT happy at all about the haircut. Poor baby.

Poor spoiled baby that is. She is not shy about expressing her displeasure. It's not like she didn't get to watch first Grandma, and then Mommy, get their hair cut first. She's just a grump sometimes, and I know the sign for "grumpy" (and she doesn't like it when I use it. :) )

I see that there are ice and sleet pictures for her to remember too

Oh yes, they are in north Austin and they got plenty of ice and sleet, maybe a little snow.

After I got sent home from work early yesterday, my wife called from far North Texas and told me that they had several dozen robins in the yard, looking for something to eat under the snow/sleet. Then Mort, the dog, wanted out so she let him out. Of course he chased away the birds, but then didn't especially like the stuff coming down on him, so hid under an evergreen tree. When the birds came back he'd pop out and chase them away again, and then return to his nice dry and warmer hideout. This cycle repeated several times before my wife called him back in. Would have loved to have seen it.

""my wife called from far North Texas and told me that they had several dozen robins in the yard,"

Isn't that strange....we had a huge group of male cardinals land out here. Had to have been over 200 in the bunch. They were just beautiful. I've given my big outside dogs so much billy heck about chasing our guineas that they know better than to even look at another bird.

Had to chuckle at the spoiled baby bit. So is Logan. But we always tell everyone that he's just "over loved". Question... why do you sign to her? Did I miss that she has a hearing problem, or are y'all just teaching her to sign? I wish they would teach sign language at Logan's school. He's in Spanish, and for down here, that's certainly a necessity, and music, which he loves.... but it would be nice for the children to know the language of the hearing impaired.

When Logan gets angry (and he does that easily)... he tells his mommy he's going to "Nanee's house"...that's me. When he's here and not happy, he pretends he's calling her to come get him. Think the kid is working both ends??? LOL

Hug your precious little one. Logan is no longer a baby. We prayed so for him to grow and flourish...and he did...every so quickly. Where did "the baby" go???
