happy birthday jack!

solid foods

jenna's been on solid foods for a couple of weeks. we started a little bit early 'cause she just would not sleep through the night. she likes her cereal and it instantly made a difference. mom and dad now get a full-night sleep (well most the time anyway) so, now were branching out into vegetables and, as you can see by the look on her face, this is going to take some work. even our over-enthusiastic "mmm, jenna squash is yummy" cheerleading didn't seem to help, she didn't much care for it ... but i seem to remember going through the same thing with jack. this age is a lot of work, but its also something new every day.

I'm a photographer not a terrorist

I don't have cable TV, so I've never watched the Colbert Show, or whatever it's called ... but oh my gosh is this bit funny. It is amazing how good intentions almost always go awry. I know this is intended to be funny, but fact is this really does happen. Laws like this came from Bush's Homeland Security legislation after 911. I know and understand our government is trying to keep us safe ... but, really. This is the best we can do???
