Revenge of the Pink Caboose

It's an inside joke, so if you don't get it, don't worry. When reading to Jasmin the other night the story A Bela Adormecida (Sleeping Beauty), I came upon a line mentioning that the sleeping princess was lying on a golden bed. However, the helpful drawing in the book did not show any part of this bed to have a golden color. In fact, it was entirely pink with pink sheets, pink pillows, and a pink blanket. Now, there may have been somewhere in this bed something made of gold, but if so, it was not shown anywhere in the illustration. Of course, every time I come to the line saying that the princess was lying on a golden bed, Jasmin is quick to correct, "the bed is pink, Dad." Those who get the joke may remember a similar caboose many years ago....

It's a Boy!!

The ultrasound results are in: Jasmin will have a little brother! No name has been decided yet, but we are taking suggestions. Please feel free to leave yours in the comments area.

Photos from Jasmin's 3rd birthday (Sunday, August 26th) have now been uploaded to flickr, as well as photos from her school party on Friday (August 31st) for all of the August birthdays.

Enjoy!
