1st Tooth!!!!

In response to the economic stimulus plan Will popped a tooth. He knows the money is coming. The quicker the teeth come in, the quicker he can collect from the tooth fairy. Not sure what the going rate on a tooth is these days but like everything else its probably not cheap.

We tried very hard to take a picture, but he has a rather large tongue. Here are some pics of us trying....









Here is a picture of me eating cupcakes. Which evidently cause tooth decay.



Now have no fear Will. I will teach you how to negotiate rewards with Mom before going to the dentist.

Some tips for other kids looking to extort their parents.

1. Make your demands late in the game. On the drive over to the dentist, while walking into the office, or if you really want to risk it just hold the mouth shut and wait until your in the chair.

2. Go big if I was a kid now I would ask for the Wii. Negotiate down from what you really want.

3. If negotiations go wrong try crying, or blame it on an imaginary friend, brother, sister, family member, etc...

Good Luck!

Hooked on the Blackberry.

Claudia did her best, DAMMIT SHE DID HER BEST!

She tried to do everything right for Will. She ate right, exercised, stayed off the wine, sushi and cold cuts. But there was one thing she couldn't stop, those damn emails. She typed away; her thumbs practically bleeding some days. Not knowing what she was doing to the child growing inside of her. Who knew? Kids can be born hooked on the Blackberry. I had no idea. This video makes it all too clear pregnant women should not use a Blackberry. My poor son hooked on the Blackberry, before he can even speak. I don't know how to deal with this epidemic I really don't. But this is real people. Look at this kid go into attack mode when he sees that damn evil email typing machine.

History repeats itself

Anyone in the Trevor family is familiar with a famous picture of my sister Jen as a baby, biting my Grandpa Jack's nose. It was a big 8x10 on the wall at my Grandparents' house. Will is still teething and there are no teeth in sight. But the gnawing has ramped up as of late, as history repeats itself:
