The start of something not so great!

Today is the day that I will start something that will probably end up as something not so great. I will from time to time try and post something here to tell of the adventures of my life. Not that the adventures of my life won't be so great but the actually documenting them in the written form will probably be the part that is not so great.
First off I would like to add a little disclaimer that everything on this website is to be exactly 100 percent of the time a complete picture of accuracy of my life.
My first adventure stemmed from Becca's email about how to work with babies. This can be found here ---> http://www.c00lstuff.com/1133/Do_s_and_don_ts_with_babies/

I thought the funniest one was "lifting baby"

"Fun games with baby" and "exercising baby" are not funny. I do that all the time with the twins. Sometimes at the same time. It's funny to watch Ryan pumping iron and strategically move his bishop for a checkmate at the same time.

One other note. "Stimulating baby" That sounds like a pretty good idea to me. That was the inspiration of my next adventure. So off to Walmart I went to buy a couple of tv-mounts made for cribs. That was a terrible waste of time. Turns out Walmart doesn't sell tv-mounts for cribs. So then I went to Home Depot to see if I could find some raw materials to make a couple on my own.

On my list for Home Depot:
U' shaped tubing
Protractor scale
Car exhaust clamps
Old LNB arm
Some kinda wood
Some kinda adhesive
Metal fence Pole

After working for a few hours with my raw materials I ended up with this thing pictured on the right. It wasn't quite what I wanted and there is no room left to put a TV on it, but I figure the twins would always get up on time with the alarm clock. Maybe they'll be the first people to find life on other planets. And perhaps I'll get some good pictures of the twins in their crib.

What a great adventure!

I guess that wasn't so bad.

The does and donts with a baby really helped me.
