Ceiling Pictures

Well, the second one is very blurry.
Taking pictures in a mirrored ceiling is not easy. But, as I told Flail, it is the essence of us.

Also, because I do not want to express bias in either way, please take the following poll (closes Tuesday at 8PM EST.

Jackarooney

This is Jack. This is an old picture of Jack, really. He is my sister and brother-in-law's dog. And sometimes, he is my dog. He is gi-normous! Also, he is one of those beings that cheers me up when I am at my saddest.
I am a mopey-mo. I'm sick again, even though I was just sick, and it stinks. I'm a Stinky McLoserpants, and cannot help but mopey-mo all over the place. Bad fake allergies. Bad back. Bad saddies. It's the worst (except, really, in the scheme of the world, it's not so bad).

In the words of Sean Meagher: "Gar!"

Miss Mady is Here!
IMG_5006
and I've got a brand new baby to love!
Oh, babies! They are superfun when they are other peoples! And, they are superfun when they belong to Annmarie and Roly Boyon, two wonderful people who have already become wonderful parents. Gail and I met this munchkin today. She's bigger than she was, but she's still pretty tiny. Seven pounds and change...let me tell you, no one ever remembers how tiny babies start out...but they are tiny!
Here's Mady and her mama getting the gas out:

(I, of course, mean the baby's gas)
Here is proud papa:

Gail with that baby:

Hey, does that baby look bored? Hmm, give her to me! She'll perk right up!
IMG_5007
Just kidding, Gail! well, sort of...
Anyhoo, this little Mady has already got a slew of people wrapped around her tiny fingers. Some of you may know that I called her White Chocolate in the womb, so I made her a superhero onesie with the infamous:

Gail also took this wonderful picture of Mady squishing up her face:

I will leave you with that bit of adorableness! Congrats, Ams and Rol! You did it! She's beautiful! And already very smart!

As you can see, Gail was responsible for Rainbow Shirt Number One, an Iron-On Transfer design. That T-shirt received 62 out of 151 votes, 41.1 % of the votes. I made Rainbow Shirt Two, which was hand embroidered. I received 89 out of 151 votes, which was 58.9 % of the votes.
I will say, though I only voted once, there may have been some padding, so I cannot in good conscience, accept this victory.
We did present them to Carter today.

Which one won?

The Play-doh Fun Factory!

Yeah. Carter didn't really care. I guess she forgot about the rainbow t-shirt. She did, however, remember about the "trowing up". She was super cute. Gail and I got to decorate tiaras, while Grandpa and Uncle Joe received pens with feather plumes and heart-shaped sunglasses, respectively.

Also, there was some feather-boa-wearing.

And Pops took us to Friendly's for lunch, where I took what could possibly be the CUTEST PICTURE EVER!

At the end of the day, we played a little play-doh, we saw a little dancing (Cass knows how to cut a rug), and then we went home:

Thank you for your votes. Since Gail and I both received tiaras today, along with feathers, you may picture us waving grateful and graceful waves to you from a balcony with long sparkly dresses.

You like me, you really really like me.

Here's the thing:
We've done it again! The Meagher girls are having a dispute, and getting everyone else involved!
Here's how it started: Carter puked on a rainbow shirt. I said I'd make her a new one a certain way, Gail said that was not a smart way, why didn't I make a rainbow shirt Gail's way? I said, "Why don't you make one your way?"(imagine it all with a lot snottier of tones). Gail said, "Maybe I will". And here it is: Meagher vs. Meagher. Or Meagher vs. Beyrer. I cannot reveal the ways of the shirts, as that would be giving away too much, Gail says.
So one of us made Rainbow Shirt Number One:
IMG_4710a
One of us made Rainbow Shirt Number Two:
IMG_4721
We have, supposedly, asked you to vote for whichever t-shirt makes you feel happiest inside. Whichever one is, in fact, better. Now, you could take this as: which one is better for Carter, which one is better for you (should you enjoy the occasional rainbow shirt), which one is the super-duper-est...it's pretty much up to you!
We just ask that you vote.

Now, this may not be as vicious as the old "fussbudget vs. fussbucket" argument, but it does involve rainbows...voting closes on Sunday at 11:00AM EST.

You Are Olive Green
You are the most real of all the green shades. You're always true to yourself.
For you, authenticity and honesty are very important... both in others and yourself.
You are grounded and secure. It takes a lot to shake you.
People see you as dependable, probably the most dependable person they know.
