Just some stories that have made us laugh:
Number One:
We were out the other day and a girl, about 12, came up to us and asked, "does your baby have cancer?"
I can't help but laugh, "No, no he is just bald."
"Bald? Really? He doesn't have cancer? He just doesn't have hair?"
"Yes."
"Weird."
Number Two:
I'm getting Caden's immunizations and a hispanic lady who doesn't speak very good English falls in love with Caden. She was very nice, but I'm not a huge fan of strangers touching my kid. She kept trying to take him, and kiss his little hands. Luckily, Megan was with me and is much better at ignoring it. So Caden starts screaming (pretty typical) because he's excited over something and I say, "Oh Heaven."
The hispanic lady says, "Heaven? Awwwwh, you named your baby Heaven!"
At this exact moment as he's yelling at the top of his lungs I'm thinking...YEAH RIGHT! "Ohhh no, no I didn't. He is just Caden."
Dejected, "Oh, that's too bad."

Ramblings of a girl surrounded by four boys
About Me
Recognize that the joy of motherhood comes in moments. ...Amid the challenges, there are shining moments of joy and satisfaction." -Elder Ballard
"Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around and shouting that he has been robbed. The fact of the matter is that most putts don't drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time rail journey...delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." - President Gordon B. Hinckley

If you guys would of gotten him that helmet no one could make fun of him for his lack of hair...but then again, they would have a field day with his helmet.
people are so strange!!! I think bald babies are beautiful! : ) I told Adam I want a bald baby! : )
Soooo funny! Don't you just love 12 year olds? No embarrassment whatsoever. Her answer "Weird" is priceless. And really--Heaven as a first name? Silly lady! I say "Oh heavens" about 20 times a day at least!

Poor, little hairless Caden! He's working the bald look, though--bald is beautiful, right? :)
Those were a good laugh--people are so funny! Hey, wee should do lunch sometime...
we were in vegas for paul's sister's wedding and i was changing penny in a bathroom. she was wearing this cute little gold dress and this hispanic lady comes up and goes "oohh!" and kisses her on the forehead. for reals. it must be a cultural thing.
The first comment was so funny! Kids are sometimes too honest with their questions! Ha ha!
What is it with strangers touching baby's hands? I am always surprised how many people do that. These are funny stories!
Hahahahaha! I can relate to the bald baby thing, and I am sooo glad you chose Caden over Heaven. Haha!
those are great stories. I loved your pics of things you can't live without. Seeing pics of Nielson's park makes us homesick for Utah...
