Yes folks...we had a new addition to the family........





*notice the closet door behind my son's
head...yes, those are photo's and its goes from the top of the doors
to the floor...COVERED with photo's...
I brought him up well.......





okay okay...I'm through playing with ya'll....
My son's girlfriend took one of those Family First classes...you know where the teen is assigned a baby....and I have to say...
I.LOVE.THIS.CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my Lord, YES!!!!
A couple weekends she got to take the baby home. Which meant, the baby was pretty much around us all that weekend...that Friday night she came over with the baby wrapped up tight...in its little car seat. And promptly left it on the living room couch and her and Okoye went downstairs to get on the computer. Because that is where I was at. I didnt say anything...I let it go but when it started making this little noises, Miyagi came to investigate it. I yelled at the kids 'HEY! Miyagi is going to have a new toy if someone dont come get this baby!'...nobody came. hmmmmmmmm
A few minutes later the baby let out a scream that would shame a real baby and just kept crying like a colicy baby...over and over again. No one came.....
By this time...Miyagi was doing his little 'lets be FRIENDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS' dance he does to other dogs. Its a really cute hop and skip dance but to the uknown eye...it looks like the leap of an attack....
And I...I sit at the dinning room table and....observe

FINALLY the wails of said baby alerted 'mom' and she came bounding up the stairs to check on the baby...but baby would NOT stop crying....
See, mom has to figure out what is wrong with the baby. It doesnt all you to just pop a bottle in its mouth or any change a diaper and be done with it. If you hold the bottle to the mouth, its not actually sucking until your hear the sucking noise. Then you know that you have satisified the hunger issue. Sometimes the baby just wanted to be held...so it made this cooing noises once you figure that out. If you stopped too soon...it would cry. If the head tilted back to far...it would scream. There wasn't any set schedule...it was just random.
again....I. LOVE.THIS.CLASS!!!!!!!
Personally, I think they had this baby programmed to be overly fussy but hey....I think it is really good dose of birth control.
