Facebook

A lot of people knock me for being on facebook, but without it I wouldn't have conversations like these.
  • Sheri Harrison Are you in Los Banos?
  • Sheri Harrison I thought so. I used to drive by Rooney's every weekend on my way to San Francisco.
  • Andrew Herd After years of driving right by and always wondering what Rooney's was all about, I finally stopped in to explore its secrets. Great deals on bubble gum flavored vodka....what the? Gross.
  • Summer Connery Um, you said it sounded interesting. Nice try buster.
  • Andrew Herd Summer, stop embarrassing me in front of my frieeeeeeeeends!!!
  • Summer Connery Me!? We swore that the words bubble, gum, and vodka would never pass our lips collectively ever again. You have succeeded in embarassing both of us.
  • Andrew Herd It's comments like these that drive me right back into the arms of bubble gum vodka. . .
  • Sheri Harrison This conversation made my day.

Mix A Pancake

Peek-a-boo isn't good enough for this kid.
He wants me to act like an idiot.

Our House


Raegan wrote this poem about our house.


This is the house where I live

This is where I feel love like a dove

This is where it's a home not a gnome

This is where I play my game

and this is where there is nothing lame

and you can hear the doorbell ring

and feel the love all around (not like the pound!)

and somebody cares about meeeee!

I LOVE YOU MOM AND DAD!

No Nake-Up

This morning Ellie came into my bathroom while I was trying to get ready when she informed me,

"Mom, you're face look like this...


You need to do your nake-up."

What not to say to your over due pregnant wife


When you're pregnant I always let myself go too.

I didn't let myself go. I'm pregnant.

Eye Kisses


For a while when Kendal was younger she was afraid to go to sleep in her bed. She said she was "afraid of bad dreams". So I started a little ritual of giving her a kiss on each eye every night before she went to bed to help her have good dreams. This always calmed her fears as she went to sleep. I still do this. She never lets me forget. If I do she'll call from her room in her sweet little voice "MOM. YOU FORGOT TO KISS MY EYES!"

Last night she came into to my room to get her eye kisses. This has become the new routine as I am 9 month pregnant, almost completely immobile and unable to climb up and lean over her bunk bed. After giving me a kiss and a hug she said, "Wait! I have to kiss the baby." She hugged and kissed my belly. Then she asked, "Where are the baby's eyes?" I pointed to a spot on my belly and she gave it two kisses, one for each eye. I gave her a big hug, said goodnight and she ran off to bed.

Conversations of a Married Couple

Me: I told you I had heartburn.

Luke: No you didn’t.

Yes I did.

Maybe I wasn’t listening.

But you responded.

That doesn’t mean I was listening.
