more yaddah from me

or is it yadda? no clue. yaddah isn't some old yiddish word is it? no clue. if rob were here he'd tell me to wikipedia it.

anyway, yep my morning sucks. cade just had a 20 minute tantrum because i told him to go let the dog out of his kennel. cade wouldn't do it so i turned off the TV. then he went into full tantrum mode. i carried him to his bedroom to cry, but within minutes i was back in there because he was kicking the walls.

after 10 minutes of screaming & crying he finally sat for his 3 minute time out (for kicking the walls). all that just because i asked him to let the dog out.

now he's cleaning random things with a clorox wipe. staying busy by sucking up i guess.

i have a friend named 'lola'. she takes wonderful pictures, they truly are artwork. she captures the most amazing sides of people. and the best part? she shares her work online with friends and strangers alike. however, some people have 'borrowed' her son's pictures as some sort of internet scavenger hunt. okaaaaaayyyyyy. hm. it seems they don't ruin the pictures, they just collect them and see how many they can collect. sounds weird, most of these kids are in foreign countries...that explains it all, right? they way i understand it, it's like a foreign myspace called orkut.com.

you can see by her website her photog skills are awesome, and her kids are the cutest (well, except for MY kids, haha). so sign this petition to get orkut shut down. the biggest complaint lola has with orkut is that her watermark ("property of" stamp) on the pictures is missing, so it shows no ownership of the pictures.

i signed it b/c lola is a friend, and i hate to see her beautiful pictures misused in any fashion. this might be harmless but the whole 'collection' aspect gives me the creeps.

why can i not get started on anything?
--laundry
--planning a baby shower, to be held in 2 weeks (haven't sent invites out yet!)
--pick a room and clean it

laundry is really the priority today. cade is out of shorts and i'm out of shorts too. maybe i should just make a target run instead. if it weren't so damn warm down here in FL, then i wouldn't need to wear shorts all the dang time. global warming and all that crap.

i have several friends on a mommy board that have had babies this month or are about to. dana is due any day, but hopes to hold out til monday so she can have an october baby. i tried to do the same thing dana, but elisha was born on 8/31, 16 hours shy of being a september baby. this is her 5th child, so you'd think she'd just be happy for babygirl to be born, instead of being picky about the dates :) i'd link her blog but like i said she has 4 kids, she doesn't have time to blog. i imagine the last time she posted on it was 3 years ago before baby #3 was born :)

so we're on baby watch for the next few days.

i have another friend who is in my thoughts on an almost constant basis. she is pregnant with her 4th and i wish her all the best baby-vibes i can muster.

and considering rob just got his vasectomy, i have babies on the brain. i'm throwing a baby shower in 2 weeks...our board just had 2 babies born last week...more babies in the future...the grandma & grandpa at walmart yesterday with the 3 month old twin girls...ack! they're everywhere!
