Babies Gone Wild Can Kiss It...

I’ve got to get this off my chest…Alabama Baby Magazine and 103.7 the Q can KISS MY BIG FAT BABY CHEEKS (either pair of cheeks that is). So the Babies Gone Wild competition was, as expected, a complete waste of time. If they had actually based the winners on looks alone, it would have been a cake walk and those babies wouldn’t have stood a chance against the cuteness that is my chubby redheaded self. BUT…that was not the case, as we well know…yeah, thanks Molly…and by the way, your Mom is a total L-O-S-E-R…but love the red hair, you’re still a rock star in my book, 'cause we redheads need to support one another. But anyway, Dad even appealed to his ‘buddies’ on his Rivals website, to get a little man-power voting…those guys swore that ‘Molly was going down’…but they failed me. It was too late in the game and the competition shut down before they could wreak havoc on Molly and Babies Gone Wild. Bummer…but on the upside, I’ve got a few new cool email accounts as the result, like hestonrocks@gmail.com (Thanks Megan!). And thanks to all my friends and family who voted…

Mother’s Day weekend was great…I got to have some new food when my parents took me out to eat a few times. Let me just say that cheese quesadillas are out of this world! Mom and Dad tried to tear up small pieces for me to start with, but I ended up cramming several of them into my mouth all at one time and Mom had to fish out a few chewed up wads to prevent me from gagging. I couldn’t help myself…white Mexican cheese is probably the tastiest thing ever…oh cheesy-goodness…and those tortillas things are a close second. Many family members have made comments on my chubbiness lately…saying I’m ‘solid’ or ‘stocky’ or have ‘tree trunk legs’…but this solid food thing is still relatively new to me and I can’t help myself…I love to eat! So people, lay off… chubby is a good quality to have at this point in my life… in a few years, it won’t be quite as socially acceptable, so I need to enjoy it while I can…

I went to ‘The Ranch’ yesterday for Mother’s Day…I got to see some horses, a few cats, a bunch of dogs, and a few dead snakes…yep, DEAD SNAKES! They were so cool…my grandpa found them tangled up dead in some gardening net and boy did they freak everyone out! One of the snakes was huge…Grandpa was carrying the net over his back and then noticed a few long things dangling from it…he yelled and dropped the net, to find that the large grey snakes were already dead, thank goodness. So that was the highlight of the weekend! And even the greyhounds and the cats were intrigued with them…I don’t think they had ever seen a dead snake either! And, it just so happened that I wore my cool new shoes with snakes, frogs, and bugs on them, so I was properly dressed for the occasion.
