Cute baby contest!

I entered Reegan in this little baby contest. It is by far not the best picture...but it works. I was going to have Larae take them but we have all been horribly sick for 3 weeks, and we just couldn't do it. It would have been a much cuter picture if she had done it...

So, here's the deal. You can go to this address http://gosanangelo.com/news/2008/jan/27/vote-cutest-baby/

On the first page you can vote for 'Reegan H.' (to see all the other babies, just out of curiosity, click 'thumbnails' at the top)

You can vote ONCE A DAY PER COMPUTER until Feb 6th. I am not INTENTIONALLY skewing the data....but you've gotta know how the game is played ;)

You might just happen to have some friends, work group, or entire school that also thinks shes the cutest and could vote....or if you wanted to put a link on your blog that would be ok too :)

(A little obsessive...you think???)

THANKS!!!!

AMENDMENT: apparently you can vote every HOUR per computer!!!!

Linda's Snot

Where does snot come from? I don't mean a little snot, I mean lots and lots of snot. How can you have no snot one day and the next you have buckets of it? Does your body store it down in your legs? Does the snot fairy come down the chimney like Santa and deliver snot? This is one of the questions I'm going to ask God when I get the chance. This blog is so boring I think I'll post a picture and no, it is not a picture of snot. Even I'm not that gross.

.

Oh look Shauna, a little girl that hasn't cut her hair. Imagine that. Of course she doesn't have much to cut so that could make a difference.

I fully expect that one of these days Robin is going to change her password and I won't be allowed to blog anymore.

Blake's initials ...

It's Linda again with a very important blog message. All you lurkers need to vote. In my kitchen at the top of the wall (actually on the side of the air conditioning ducts) there are talavera type painted tiles. These tiles have the initials of family members. Now that baby Blake is here, she needs a tile. Where should it be? Some family members (no Koby, I'm not going to mention your name) have spent many hours deciding on just the right tile. Oh, the tiles are painted such that we can remove the center design and add initials. Disclaimer: Ryan and Mere get the final vote.



This is the wall above the frig. It has "SBT" for Sue, "LJD" for Linda, "EOT" for Dad, and "RGH" for Reegan.



This is the wall above the sink. It has "MMT" for Meredith, "LEW" for Laine, "MET" for Mike, and "KDH" for Koby.

This is the wall above the entrance from the living room and it turns back toward the frig. It has "MJT" for Mom, "RMD" for Robin and I think that is all.

This is the wall where the utility room door is. The top row has "RMW" for Ryan. The bottom row has "HLW" for Heather, "JRW" for Jonathan, and "BCW" for Bowen.

More Christmas and baby Blake pictures

Reegan's reindeer butt jammies.

Reegan is taking after Paco - she loves her bicycle.

Look - baby Blake is SO advanced she is winking at us!

Shauna this one's for you!

What a great holiday we had. We spent Christmas at my mom's house. Reegan loved EVERYONE'S gifts. She still has 2 gifts to open because when she would open something she would play with it. She wore out before the presents ran out!

Koby left the 27th for a hunt. When he got back we all, grandparents included, went to Ft. Worth for Christmas with that part of the family and, best of all, to meet baby Blake! We had so much fun just being family. Blake is absolutely beautiful. She has a little bit of dark hair and is so sweet. She sleeps four hours at a time which is just amazing. I don't think Mere and Ryan are sleep deprived like most new parents....yet! Fun was had by all. I love my family!

Koby is on another hunt but the season is coming to an end. It's always nice when he gets home but we are so used to being apart that it takes us a few days to adjust. I can't wait to get back to normal!

Here are pics from the fam Christmas/New Year! I'm not sure how Heather, Jonathan, and Sue didn't make the pics ...but they were there! And yes Shauna I made sure there were a few of Blake just for you!

On our way home! This is Ree's favorite way to sit. She loves having one foot propped up!

Happy 2008!!!
