Why you should name your kid after candy

1. It's good marketing. Our parents each have 9 grandkids. If he's going to pull ahead, he needs a gimmick. By naming him Reece, we've attached him to all the good feelings they already have toward peanut-buttery goodness, and made sure they'll think of him each time they pass the checkout aisle.

2. Freebies. Giving Reece's Pieces to us to celebrate his birth is always quick and clever. It will never get old to give us candy and we'll never get tired of getting it.

3. Emotional damage. It's his baggage, not ours. Chump.

Still no baby

We're officially at our due date today. Doctor said he won't induce for two more weeks. Nothing's going on. Did this happen to any of you?

Some one has to say it

The bachelor sucked this season. There. I said it. They've jerked us around with this DeAnna thing all season and then she only comes in for 3 worthless minutes? Seriously, ABC. You're on notice.
