AWOL vs AOL

If I said that some pictures were missing you'd reasonably think that they should be AWOL.

However maybe they're slowly making there way online. Could be they were going over a slow dial up connection, like the one offered by such a big name as AOL, or maybe your are just slow getting them online. Either way its sure taking one hell of a long time.

That's the problem when you mix your personal bit of Truthiness onto a public blog.

AOL Pronounciation Eh Owe El
1. One fine Internet Service Provider
2. Synonym for slow

Nanny Barb

Not to be out done or forgotten. Here is Nanny Barb. When my tax bill goes up in June I'll know its because there was a rash of new OAS checks going out that month.

Till we find a photo here's what we have

Auntie Karen and John

Boy were these two ever popular. That was until it was time to go to bed that final night. Then there was nothing that anyone could do to make BigE happy.



Of course when your known for your pillow fights, going on the picnic, or just general jumping up and down on the bed well it's hard to be the bad guy.

Now here's a picture we want to save for someday in the future when John has become all powerful. Can you spot the similarities?

Pay attention to me!

Forget that old hockey game! look at me I have my two feet in a shoe! Look at me.

How do you spell weiner?

Ok, so it's 25'c in BigE's bedroom. He's got socks on and has his blankets over him. Five minutes after I leave the room I hear crying. Hmm ... What is that all about?

"My feet are cold"

You've got to be kidding me. Now if that isn't Mommy's boy material I don't know what is.

Happy Birthday Poppy Doug

First thing, this was not the only Birthday on our travels. However Nanny Barb's birthday pictures are AOL. So till they show up let's all bask in the Poppy Doug Birthday show.

Blowing out the candles.



Can you guess poppy's age?



BTW That now brings the total number of public pictures of Poppy Doug to two!

Bird Update #2

Got back from the good ol' vacation to find that the birds had settled in to the nest above our light. Looks like we have a new resident. Here's a pic I took, heavy on the zoom so I didn't startle them, from this morning.

Pictures on FLICKR

Just a note to say that we have uploaded all of our pictures on Flickr. That's over 2200 pictures! Almost 2/3 have been categorized or tagged. Slowly we'll get the rest.
