Welcome to my ToddCast...

Todd is alive and well and living in a dilapidated former dog house. Todd likes carrot treats and fresh water. He is a special little guy.


Henry likes to pretend he is a lion. He is good at growling and freaking out.


Henry is OK at getting around in heels...


He could be better...

Speaking of sweet shoes, check out this little lady...


The other day I was letting Henry air dry for a spell since he had a wicked diaper rash. Suddenly, I was overwhelmed with a warm and wet sensation in the foot area.

"Henry, did you really just pee on my foot?"

"Yes, daddy..."
I was wearing new slippers and they got totally soaked. Whadda ya do?
Henry split his lip open last week. He tripped and fell face first on the garage floor. I didn't actually see him fall but I heard a solid thud and could tell it was kinda bad. He looked up, already crying and and blood coming out of his mouth. I thought maybe he had chipped or knocked out some toofums. Luckily, it was just a split lip. He was OK after a few minutes. I think Ma and Pa were more traumatized. He is always running around all crazy. His shins are always completely black and blue and scratched up. That's what little boys do, right?
Henry has a new buddy, Alan Wu. He is a cute young chap from China and was recently adopted by a friend and coworker of my wife. I guess Henry was a bit jealous of his John Deere and Bob the Builder stuff.

Momma was away for Girls Weekend last weekend. So, I was home all by my lonesome with the babies while my wife drank Zima, ate deviled eggs and played "tickle fight" with her lady friends, or so they claim. Poor, poor me...
On Saturday Grammy Judy was kind enough to watch the kids for a while while a friend helped me pour our sidewalk, a driveway apron, and a small patio slab. It turned out pretty sweet -- we stamped it with a cobblestone pattern. As a side note, we had a guy help us that has one adult movie "acting" credit to his name.
Siding is supposed to be delivered this week!
My shower tile guy told me he is starting this week for real!
Henry's new favorite line before bed: "ONE MORE BOOK, DADDY!"
He loves Ten Little Monkeys and simply cannot get enough of it. He watched Dumbo this past week and really loved it.

Sorry, I can't type with Alison in my lap very well.

Anyway, what I was trying to say is that now that you have two kids you should probably change the name of your blog. Maybe "Totally Todd" so as not to play favorites with the kids. Just an idea.

I have considered starting another blog just for Violet but I can't decide. It seems like a barely have time for one blog. I guess Todd could have his own too. I bet he was pretty pissed with all the hail last night...

Poor Todd! Are there any shingles left on his shack? I thought of him last night when the sirens were going off.

Any chance we could see more Girls Weekend pics up on Shutterfly/Snapfish when you get a chance? I'm jonesin' to order Julie's photos. She has all the best ones of Woody.

Enge - I'll see what we can do. Julie does the snapfish. I could put them up on flickr also...

Good to hear that Todd is doing well. Looks like your dog has adjusted to the new family members :) ... Glad to hear you are making progress on the homestead. Driveways, siding and bathrooms are important. As for blog names .. Henry James & Family ? Sooner or later Henry will want to be adding his 2cents worth.

Todd is stealing all the thunder and he looks like he loves it. Not too sure about what that dog is thinking about while looking at the queen.
Everyone looks awesome and Violet is super gorgeous.
