All the live long day

The eyes of Texas are upon you. Could get ugly in Austin. We will leave it at that. In the meantime here are some pictures of the sweetest little girl in the world.

See the halo?

Halo and Horns?!?

Just kidding

Paw and Sophia

Mommy and baby

Where the treetops glisten

The goose is getting fat which means that Christmas is right around the corner. 93 days to be exact, but who's counting.

Me, the big cheese, the head honcho, king of the castle, that's who. In preparation for the upcoming holiday celebration I have been conversing with my daughter as to what it may be that she would like to have Santa bring her. She's given me a rather lengthy list of presents so I figured that this would be the perfect place to show her wish list.

1. Nintendo WII
2. Ben Hogan Apex II blade golf iron's for an adult male. She said she will grow into them?!?
3. Skycaddie 8 gps unit
4. Autographed photo of Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer at 1973 Ryder Cup
5. Basketball goal
6. Trampoline
7. Inflatable Bouncer big enough so daddy can watch her play
8. History of Wrestlemania on Blu Ray Disc
9. Tickets to 2010 Maters final round
10. Apple iPod touch - flash 32 GB
11. A doll


I will try to post a picture of the baby sometime this week.

Wait a minute mister postman

Sophia Claire Groomes esquire has defied the odds and arrived not just on time but early. I can now say unbiasedly that with my superior dna we have produced the most perfect baby ever birthed. We are still working on the sleeping and eating but she has the crying down to an art. If I could just get about six hours more sleep a night then everything would be going tremendously.

Sorry this entry is so short but I have lubrication duties to attend to.
