Amusing

I have to say, I appreciate our local newspaper, The Niagara News. I like knowing what's going on around town, and I always enjoy perusing the classifieds... lately I've been amused by my discoveries there.

Last week, someone had a magic wand for sale, complete with built-in magic tricks. The same person was also looking for their Grandma, who had just gone missing one day. If you see her, she's 5'2, gray hair, and answers to Edna, and please give them a call.

You've just got to love the local paper.

5 Months and Counting

Peter had his 5 month birthday last week, and on that day I noticed his first tooth coming in! He hasn't been incredibly cranky about it at all, which has been nice for all of us. We are enjoying his smiles and laughs, and his increasing amount of talking as well. He rolled over for the first time just a while ago, but since that day he has only done it once and refuses to even give it a try! I'm not feeling incredibly wordy, and it's taking me a long time to organize these pictures, so I think I'll just leave it at that, and hope you enjoy them...
I found this picture on the computer -
