No name yet, but got the grandmothers attention!

Tracey and I had a visit to Siemens for some 4D ultrasound. They say a picture is worth a 1000 words. I think this one will keep us taking for awhile.

Olympic yawn.....

I'm getting tried of swimming, swimming, and more swimming and a little gymnastic and beach volleyball marathons.

Lets see a bit more of the other sports pleaze. I hear we USA's went gold, silver and bronze in the sword fighting for the chicks.

I'm so sure the TT and the track cycling will get nada.

Oh yhea, Tracey and I agree the synchro girl on girl shower sceens could have some xxx potential.

Chinese - Food for thought.

Overpopulation, industrialization, oppression, Communism, cyclists wearing masks...baby girls!

Tracey and I had a discussion about the athletes wearing masks in the airport thing this am. I never take it personally when I see a person wearing a mask here in the states. In fact after a few months of those fires I've been having some problems with my VO2 bags too!

I really think its pretty stupid.

Tracey also told me that there was a list of do's and don't that was sent out to all the residents of China about what they should or shouldn't do during the games.  Like women with thick legs must wear black stockings. Man in that heat...nasty!

Baby dictionary

So I get a email from Tracey today who has been busy recovering from the back  surgery. She has been making great progress and has been telling me that we are going to need things for the baby.

Ok, she has a list of about 1000 and growing.

Swaddling blanket, premie outfits, boppy slip cover, breast pump (ok I can figure that one out)..

Gotta go shopping.
