The "You Shoulds"

This week is Rufus' birthday and my birthday. My birthday is on the 3rd and Rufus' birthday in on the 5th. This past weekend Rufus and Traci went to the park to watch a puppet show and to ride on the carousel and to play. Rufus loved it and when he got home he was dog-tired :-)

I'm super excited that Rufus is going to be 1 it has been exciting to see him grow in the past year and develop his personality. And its also funny to see some of the things that I do in him.

He's quite the energetic fellow and a very handsome dude, like his pop (ha ha).

This week is a hectic one becaue my parents will be here next week. So we gotta prepare for the onslaughts of "you shoulds"

You know, the "you shoulds"..........

You and Traci should do this....

You and Traci should do that.....

I was thinking, you know, you should.....

When you were young we did ______ with you and you should......

Blah blah blah......................

For all those with parents, you know about the "you shoulds"

So, we just get ready and prepare ourselves. I love my parents and I'd much rather have them around with their "you shoulds" than not have them around at all. :-)

On another note, Traci is finishing up her new book and I'm putting the finishing touches on the one that she and I co-wrote together "The Backyard Workout" - so this week will be busy to say the least.

Take care,
