The Holiday Gift Guide is coming. Okay...I spend way too much time on Reddit and quickmeme. But all that aside, I will begin posting up bits of the 2011 Holiday Gift Guide tomorrow.

OMG…she’s chewing on the wall!
Okay...I have a bit of a problem with Hannah. After she started teething, she started going 'beaver' on her crib. After nearly having a panic attack, I discovered that beaver behavior among babies is common. What I found surprising was that no one has really come up with an effect rail cover...but that's neither here or there. I assumed that she would grow out of it once all her teeth came in. I was wrong. She quickly began to chew on everything, from shoes to books. Thankfully, that behavior seems to have waned, but now has been replaced by something worse: wall chewing.Yes...wall chewing.

Happy Veterans Day
My grandfather, Reah H. Walker, was a teenager when he was drafted into the Army during WW2. He lived on a farm in rural Tennessee, and I don't think he had ever been outside his county, let alone the US. He was in every major battle, including D-Day. During one battle, he crossed repeatedly back over enemy lines to retrieve wounded men and get him to safety. These actions earned him the Bronze Star. He was a hero, but always played it off. "They handed those things out to everybody," he always said.To all those who have severed, thank you for your service. ...
