Travelocity Vs. Onetravel


I forgot to mention this yesterday, but as we were driving home from Abigail's doctors appointment, we saw a man walking down the street with a Boa Constrictor draped over his shoulders, just like a scarf. He was walking down the street nonchalantly with his scarf flapping in the breeze...so bazaar!

So far in the piglet race, as you can see, the girl votes are winning. Anyone out there think Piglet is a boy? If so, comment here, before it's too late!

I found a new-to-me tavel booking site, which has rates comparable to Travelocity.com, and sometimes even lower, called Onetravel.com. I usually always book my flights through Travelocity, but now I'll be checking Onetravel as well. You've still got to watch out for those fees at Onetravel, but I've found that they're clearly posted when booking travel. On the bright side, Travelocity is boasting "No Fees" on flights now. Needless to say, we'll be checking both sites when traveling to the home of the man of the house in July.

We had someone ask about our race for the finishing of the toothpaste. Well, the two titans of toothpaste, Joy(Colgate) and Mat(Crest) are slugging it out to the end. The tubes are being squeezed and rolled until they can no longer produce the wonder paste of teeth cleaning glory. There is no doubt that the winner will be declared within the next few days, yet it will be difficult to declare anyone a loser, for all shall emerge with whiter, cleaner, and God-willing healthier teeth. Goodnight and good luck.

Is Piglet a boy or girl?



Before Abby was born, Mat and I decided to decorate her room with the classic Winnie the Pooh theme. Since then, we've been in this argument about the gender of Piglet. One of us thinks Piglet is a girl and one a boy. So, we think that you should take a vote to decide! Leave us a comment and let us know what you think and we'll tally the votes in one week. If you don't have a Blogger account, you can still comment and check "anonymous" at the end. We're not going to tell you which of us thinks s/he's a girl/boy, and Mat, no voting!

Good News! We think the cat is out from under our house, Yay! We haven't heard her all day today, and Mat had the hatch open most of the day yesterday. Hopefully she got out yesterday, and didn't die under there, that would be stiiinky. Poor little kitty mow mow. Since the cat is out from under the house, this means that it's got to be something else keeping Abby up between one and two hours a night, ugh.

The last two nights, Abby has climbed out of her crib and cried, pounded on her door, played her piano, etc. We have tried rocking Abby every night, but she just lays there in our arms, bright eyed and bushy tailed, pinching our noses, waving, sticking her foot our face, and popping out her pacifier to say, "Hi". It's so hard not to laugh, because she's so stinking cute, but it gets a little old in the middle of the night. After a few nights of this, excuse me, I mean two weeks, we decided to let her try and cry a while in her crib since the rocking thing wasn't working too well. During this "crying" time, she decided to be a little monkey and climb, climb, climb. Last night, the second night of this, when we were at our wits end, Mat was about to go in and try his hand at laying her down, but when he poked his head in, she was asleep on the floor with her blankie and sippy cup, awwww.

Luckily, Abby's 18 month appointment was today with her new doctor, who we loved. She suggested that we wake Abby from her nap a little early and maybe move her to a toddler bed, or a twin without the box spring. After cleaning out mountains of ear wax, she discovered that Abigab had some fluid build up which may have been left over from an ear infection. This made sense to us, because she had a super high fever about two weeks ago. The night time waking may have been a result of pain from the ear infection, and turned into a routine. Now all we have to do is break the routine, ha ha ha! Easier said than done.

Have a wonderful night or day and don't forget to let us know about Piglet. If you're still unsure how to do this, click where it says "comments" in blue writing below. This will take you to a page where you can tickety type away inside the "Post a Comment" box. Next, click on the drop down menu and select "anonymous" if you have no blogger account. Last, click "post comment" and it will be posted after we approve.
