Random funny pages

You may have seen these, or maybe you haven't.  But they are funny.  I know I haven't been posting a lot of family stuff for a while, but, hey, I've been busy.  :)

And this is great.  It is a sketch (not real) but fuh-nee!  Those silly Brits.

Baby Tips

I have a bunch of friends and family with new babies.  I found this great page with awesome references (like this one) on how to handle your baby.

Quinn's word of the day

Not to be outdone by Jill's picture of Emmett's puffy eyes, here is a quick pic of Quinn's splotchy elbows (his eyes are a little puffy in the morning).

If you came over on Sunday (we had a family fun day for Ryan) Quinn told you within 1 minute of arriving that he has itchy elbows, ears and knees.  We went to the doctor on Monday, and it was diagnosed as Erythema-Multiforme.  Nothing contagious or too scary, but we got some topical ointment to ease the itch, and we will just keep an eye on it.   Enjoy the photo!  :P

Awesome pictures

Someone has a funny list of old Olan MIlls (I think we went there, right mom?) and related-studio photos from the seventies on their blog.  Check it out and laff-it-up!  (Some moderate language).

Word of the day: Synesthesia

How weird.  A few months ago Eva and I had a conversation with the Perrys on how we relate time and dates in our head.  I use a circle/clock-like image to resolve months (May is toward top, December at bottom, etc) and Brian has a sort of treadmill with upcoming dates rolling up and over the lip toward him as they get closer. 

Well, I stumbled on the term for this.  Synesthesia.  If you can use this word in a conversation today, you win $10!  Of course, you immediately lose $10 for being a dork, but know that -I- was impressed. :)

Fantasy Football Winners!

I have been playing Fantasy Football (with Ryan) for 7 years now, and we recently handed out the trophy and money to our winners.  Here is our league champion, Teriyaki Choppaz (also known as Brian Perry) with the trophy:

And here is Monroe Mustangs (also known as Mike Penick) with his portion of the as-collected prize money as 2nd place and points winner!

I came in fourth place, behind our friend Steve (whose baby you saw from earlier posts) and Ryan.... came in last place.  :(

Fun times, though!  Congrats, guys!
