The Remote

Seriously, what's with the obsession with remotes??? And a "toy" remote will NOT work. Luckily we have a remote that we do not use. So it's now Stella's.
I will admit that since we are going on Day 4 of all of us being home together, the tv has been on a bit more. But we also use our television for the music stations, so she does see us use the remote a lot!

Can't We All Just Get Along?

I saw this bumper sticker while out running errands with Stella yesterday. There are apparently many versions available for purchase online. I just like the overall message. Many of you may have noticed that Stella's newest baby doll is not white with blonde hair and blue eyes. We did that on purpose...we want to make sure she likes people for who they are, not what they look like. Enough "soapbox" for today...

On the right side of the page, click on the video titled "Bearcats Fans Can Have Their Skyline in Florida". My dad got his 15 minutes of fame.

Dancing Queen

Stella wanted to start off 2009 dancing in the New Year!

The Aftermath

I always enjoy the holiday season...until the aftermath. Since we have a lot of holiday activities at our house between Thanksgiving and Christmas, I admit to putting out quite a few decorations. Today began "the take down". My dining room usually ends up as a staging area for all the stuff before it gets packed up and put away. I have learned that if I pack it all away on the first day of "take down", I usually find holiday things around the house the next few days. So now I usually spend a couple of days gathering up everything and then pack it.

Yes, I have nothing better to blog about tonight, but it's been a few days so I wanted to post something. More pictures of Stella soon to come. Happy New Year...we are headed to bed...hours before Dick Clark...is he really still hosting the countdown???

Photo Mania

I just spent an hour at the computer trying to upload and organize all of our holiday photos so far. They are now all posted on our Shutterfly site. (http://thewadesphotos.shutterfly.com/) If you need the password, email me! Here's a sneak peek:


Christmas weekend with the Wades in Owensboro.


Christmas Eve at Grandma Bucher's house with Papa Kenny. Yes, Adam prefers beer and Stella prefers tea parties.
