Sleep Sack?

Night gown?

Man, I thought that last post was pretty funny...but I get no comments**crickets chirping**

Anyway, this post will be more interactive. Audience participation, if you will. All 3 of you.

My lovely wife called me into the bedroom last night to put our MALE child, my son, down to bed for the night. I did a double take when I saw what he was wearing. It looked like pajamas, sure enough, but something was different. I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Oh yes, that's it, IT'S A NIGHTGOWN!

Where I come from (admittedly, Lorena, TX) girls wear nightgowns. Boys wear pajamas. My wife says it is not a nightgown. It has one opening for both legs, so what else would you call it?

The first definition I found online:

night·gown (nītˈgounˌ)
noun
A loose garment worn in bed by women and girls. Also called nightdress.

So my son is now wearing a dress. Awesome.

I have attached some photos, and I would like your opinion.

What would you call this thing? Nightgown? Sleepdress? Nightdress? Nightie? Neglige'?

Just when I think I've seen it all

Date: 11/3/10
Location: Lakeside Animal Clinic, Exam Room 2
Time: 2:09 pm
Clients: Married Couple, late 50's
Patient: Fluffy the Male Cat*

Client: Dr. Wiltshire, can you check out Fluffy's lip? There is a lump on it. It's been there a week or so.

Me: Yep, it looks like a contact allergy to something. Does he have a plastic food bowl? Plastic chew toys? Have you put anything on his lips, like medication or anything?

Client: No, his bowls are stainless steel. Nothing on his lips that I can remember.

Client's Husband: You need to tell him

Client: Tell him what?

Client's Husband: She puts makeup on him

Me: (Laughing) How long ago did you put the makeup on him?

Client's Husband: No...she puts makeup on him every day. Like lipstick, powder, mascara, the whole nine yards.

Me: Hmmm, let's stop doing that for a while and see if it gets better.

J-Dub

Jacob's new favorite activity is kicking his leg to make his bouncy chair rock. He loves it, and it keeps us from having to rock him constantly. Score!





Strong little neck


Mom forgot to turn off the flash. This is his shocked look.



He loves playing with his hands now.

Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'

Jacob has now mastered the art of rolling over on his own. He is really proud of himself, as you can see. Sorry about the sideways video.

Baptism

Today was Jacob's baptism at church, so we had a lot of family in town for the festivities. Our house was filled to maximum capacity, but it was so much fun. JKW got passed around like a hot potato, but he hung in there very well. There were a bunch of crazy kids running around, too, which always makes things more fun. Brooke, Tyler, Logan, Brynna and Makinley were all very excited to see their cousin Jacob.

Jacob also behaved really well at church. And despite our pastor's long-windedness, he only had to take one break during the service. He particularly loved the holy water on his head, of course...because he thought it was a bath. Unfortunately, Nancy forgot his hairbrush, so he got a little fro'd as it dried. See pictures below for what his full-on fro looks like.

It was so great to have all of our families in town. Thank you guys so much for coming all that way. Y'all are welcome any time.

Now for some new pics, since I got yelled at this weekend for my lack of posting:

Trick or Treat

I guess Nancy wanted to make sure J-Dub's Halloween costume fits him or something...because it's not quite October 31st. The only problem with the "trying on" part is he is liable to gain 3 lbs between now and then. By the way, he is dressing up as Shelby.
