Why You Eat the Baby?!?

Hey there. We're around our 11th week of our pregnancy and my wife has started to show. We told the kids a few weeks back that we will be welcoming a little one later in the year. The kids are genuinely excited, but our little one more so than the others. She not only wants the baby, she wants the baby now. lol This past week or so, she's been giving us her money (a whole lot of coins) to go and "buy the baby". lol She would hand us the coins right before we took off for work and she would tell us to go buy the baby and not come back without it. lol

Well, I guess it finally got to her that we didn't come back with a baby. We would tell her that the baby costs more money so we have to go to work some more to make more money. She wasn't having it. My wife decided to go a different route and tell her that the baby is in her tummy. Our little one, a little perplexed, looked at my wife's stomach for a minute. Then she looked up in disbelief and yelled at my wife,

"WHY YOU EAT THE BABY?!?!"

My goodness, that was hilarious. Everyone in the room nearly died of laughter. Ahhhh... To have a child's perspective again. lol

I snapped this picture yesterday afternoon at my mother in law's while she was asleep. Damn, I'm just realizing... she's getting pretty big. Later!

Bioshock: Vita-Chambers = No Acheivement

Hey there. Last night, I finally got to getting through Bioshock on the hardest difficulty, HARD. It took some time because my initial run through of the game was just to get through it. Well, because the XBOX 360 has achievements, I just had to go through the game again to obtain them. One of the more difficult achievements require you to get through the game without dying. Any gamer that can do that, will be awarded with the achievement badge and can be displayed proudly on XBOX Live. I managed to do it. I finally got through all the Big Daddies, all the Little Sisters and kicked Atlas' ass. What? No achievement?!?!?! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Time to Check Out the Dolphins

Hey there friends. It's the first day of Spring and the Winter cold is about to subdue. Cloudy skies will be less frequent and the sun will begin to warm us up more and more as Summer approaches. Now is the perfect time to start planning, and saving, for a trip to SeaWorld. San Diego is about a 2 hour drive from Los Angeles and, personally, I've never been there. The last family trip down to San Diego ended up being a trip to the San Diego Zoo. Not a bad family trip, but boy, was it hot and we constantly mentioned that Sea World would have been a lot cooler, considering that there would be water everywhere. I promised the family a trip to Sea World the next time around and why not now rather then later?

Maybe it's just me, but there also seems to be this wave of dolphin mania sweeping the States. There have been reports of pink dolphins swimming in the wild, which definitely turned heads, and there seems to be more and more intellectual "findings", if not just to mention, dolphins in the news. Even ABC's World News did a piece on dolphins and their natural phenomenon, dolphin bubbles .



Just look at those amazing rings? They're beautiful. They way they form just seems to defy the natural laws but look at how effortlessly they're created by the dolphin's blow holes. But not only are they able to create them, they can manipulate them as well. Look at how they make them change direction or seem to pass them back and forth with each other as if the dolphin bubbles are balls. Are dolphins are simply one of the worlds most talented and graceful creatures.

I know that Sea World Orlando has the dolphin cove where you can witness this in person. I'm not sure if the San Diego Sea World does, so I need to call them up to see if I can witness this in person. I'm sure that the kids will get a trip out of this, since they huge animal lovers and when we go to Sea World, this would definitely be a sight to see.

Check out the Dolphin Bubbles site for all things dolphins. Facts, pictures, video, they have it all. You can can also interact with other dolphin enthusiasts by leaving bubbles (comments) on their posts.
