Say What?

Me: Honey, you have too much Metallica on your playlist.

Hubby: You have too much Beatles.

Me: (shocked) you can never have enough Beatles!

Hubby: I have to be honest dear. I like Metallica more than the Beatles.

Me: (Beyond Shocked) you do know that these are grounds for divorce, right?

Oh Mama...

will you put that camera down already!

Heat Wave

Quite a bit of hectic-ness lately. We've had our car vandalized AGAIN! For the third time. We do think we know who it is. We are just unable to prove it or track down the jerk.

Right after all the G20 riots in Toronto someone smashed 3 of our car windows. We are not any where near downtown, but I think this jerk took the rioting either as an excuse or it excited him. Anyway, this time the neighbour saw the jerk. Sadly, he did not get the jerk's licence plate number.

Now we are quite paranoid. Aaron couldn't sleep for a few days. He would wake up every time he saw headlights pass our house. To ease our minds we spent more money we should really spend on a car alarm. Strangely, we have only been arming it when parked in our own driveway. I hate this a--hole for making us feel like this in our own home. We are planning to move, but as money doesn't grow on trees we have to wait that out a bit.


(I almost threw up when the neighbour called me outside to look at this.)


We did call the cops. They supposedly took our statements and the neighbours'. However when Aaron called to check on the progress our report only listed what happened to the car. It said nothing of our suspicions or that the neighbour was witness. For sure more phone calls to the police station will follow. It's really sad that we feel like we should take this into our own hands. Yet, if we did what we really wanted to do to this a--hole Danny would be put into foster care. And I don't think I could handle jail!!! :O

On to better news...The little man has been taking swimming lessons for the passed three days. Today will be the fourth of ten days. He's been pretty good about it. I've finally dunked him underwater and he just looks stunned but no tears. I'm still trying to get him comfortable on his back. He does complain about it.

Our teacher was helping us yesterday (Daddy had to go to work). Trying to stretch out his legs so Daniel could float, rather than curl up in a ball and sink. (No - I do not let him sink. He would if I wasn't holding him though.) He's quite comfortable on his belly. And he enjoys splashing with his hands. One of the older kids splashed him in the face. He just blinked it off.

When he is in the pool looking at me Daniel has his serious face on. As soon as one of the other mom's smiles at him he turns the charm on. He is definitely daddy's little boy.

Swimming lessons came at a good time this summer. We have been having a heat wave in southern Ontario for the passed three days or so. I refuse to complain because I find even a mild winter miserable. Aaron and I are just trying to keep our little guy cool. Luckily Daniel enjoys being nude. He just regrets having to wear a diaper.

Cameras are not allowed at the pool. So you'll have to settle for this cuteness!
