Today was my very first day in Baby Jail. Mommy told me to remember that the "squeaky wheel gets the oil." I think that was her way of telling me that I may have to scream make sure that the daycare workers knew I was there. Mommy also said to not let the other babies pick on me. No really, Ms. Charlotte and her helper (Mommy doesn't remember her name) did a great job of taking care of me! I got to see five other babies who are also serving time in my room. I ate so much while I was there, I am stuffed! Daddy stopped by on his way to work to make sure that I was doing okay. I was snoozing when he stopped by! They also have a swing there for me to hang out in but it is not as cool as mine because mine is mine and mine have fish. Uncle Lenny and Aunt Patty are just a baby hop, baby skip and a baby jump away so I am sure that they will check in on me from time to time.

I was happy to see my fish when I got home but am much preferring to cuddle with Mommy. I would hate for Mommy to think that I don't have time for cuddling now that I am making new friends. I don't think my new friends would think it is uncool to still cuddle with Mommy. Mommy just needs to keep in mind that SOMEDAY I will have to tell her to not make me look uncool by planting kisses all over my face in front of my friends.

I am going back to Baby Jail in the morning but Mommy says that Daddy is going to come and get me later in the morning and take me to "Kay Care." Seems that Baby Jail is just as hard on Aunt Kay too! What can I say, she loves me (Uncle Carl does too)! Mommy and Daddy say that I can probably go to Kay Care one day a week that way I don't impede business operations too much.

Well that is all for now. Oh yeah, Where's Joey???

Who Can Resist My Smile??

I had to redo my strategy because Mommy got real good at determining what is a cry and what is a fake cry. Mommy may have been able to resist fake cries but she can't resist smiles. So now when ever she checks on me I just smile at her and she can't resist picking me up! Sucker!!

Mommy and I are hanging out today. We are going overboard on the cuddling since I start Baby Jail tomorrow. Daddy want to post bond for me????? Well that is all for now. Oh yeah, Where's Joey??

Zachary Helps The Economy!!

Yesterday Mommy and I went to the mall and I did A LOT of shopping. I found me three cool outfits (two of them even have fish on them, you know how I love my fish) at Baby Gap and I found me two Tommy Hilfiger and two Polo outfits at Dillards. Mommy says I cannot go shopping with her any more because I boosted the economy a little too much. Like I explained to Mommy, if I have to go to Baby Jail I am going to go in a stylish manner. Anyway, Mommy says that Daddy is probably going to spring me from Baby Jail fairly often so that I can go hang out with him, Aunt Kay and Uncle Carl.

Mommy and I hanged out around the house today. She even managed to clean while I was taking a nap! Daddy was outside working on my bookcase. He needs to hurry up and get it done because I want to be able to put my bears up on it, my Noah's Ark night light and all my books!

Well that is all for now! Oh yeah, Where's Joey??

I Am Rich!!!

This has been a busy week for me because I have been working. Well kind of! I have been going to "Kay Care" all week. Daddy took me to the office every day this week and Mommy picked me up at lunch time. I don't know why Mommy won't let me go to work with Daddy all of the time. I have the greatest time hanging out with Aunt Kay and Uncle Carl. They pay me for coming to work! I made $17 this week and that was from only working part-time. Someone needs to make Mommy understand the economic benefits of sending me to "Kay Care" versus Baby Jail (which I start this coming Tuesday). She should know that she has to pay Baby Jail to keep me but I get paid for going to "Kay Care," so which one make more economic sense??? DUH!! "Kay Care" of course!

Anyway, I am off for a long weekend with Mommy. We don't have to go anywhere until Tuesday. However, Mommy says that I am going to go with her to get her haircut tomorrow, stop by Daddy's office to say hi to Aunt Kay and Uncle Carl because they might be in baby withdrawal, stop to see Aunt Patty, and maybe go to the mall 'cuz baby needs a new pair of shoes. Nike Shoxx here I come!!! Well that's all for now. Oh yeah, Where's Joey??

Something Fishy Is Going On!!

Uncle Fester and me watching the football game:


Daddy and I have a new favorite book:




It's been a week since I gave everyone an update, so here goes....

I got to hang out with Mommy for five days straight last week!!! We were going to go shopping for me but ended up having to special order a tire for her car and then go back to get it put on a few days later. NO MORE NAILS!!!!! Mommy was didn't like it when Daddy had her get the COOL tires when they bought her MINI. She liked the tires even less when she had to pay for a new one. Hopefully she will not have any other problems with nails because I figure that if she has to buy more tires, that leaves a smaller share of the pie for me!

As usual, I have been hanging out with my fish buddies. I love to watch the fish go round and round. I love it even more to watch Mommy and Daddy have to scurry over to hit the restart button when my fish stop swimming overhead. Grandpa Len and Granny Bev brought me my collection of Dr. Suess books. Lo' and behold, in the midst of the many books was "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish." I was so excited when Daddy read it to me (well most of it anyway....we sort of got bored thirty pages in). Mommy tried to post the video clip of Daddy reading it to me but she couldn't make it work. Mommy thought it was funny how I was responding to Daddy reading about fish.

Uncle Lenny finally returned to the scene. He tried to tell me that he hasn't been around in over a week because he had strep throat! Likely story. Mommy says he didn't come around because he didn't want to have to put any ducuts in my piggy bank...with interest. Well Uncle Lenny....interest is still compounding daily. Also, Uncle Lenny...you can't sneak over without telling Aunt Patty where you are going. Dude that is so uncool. Despite that, it was great to hang out with Uncle Lenny while watching the football game even though he snuck over without Aunt Patty.

BIG NEWS!!! I got a job! I went to work with Daddy today because Mommy works half days this week (except Friday...Mommy took the day off to hang out with me for another long weekend). Anyway, I got to hang out with Daddy, Auntie Cash...er I mean Auntie Kay, and Uncle Carl. I got paid $7 for all my work today! Aunt Kay paid me $5 for making a good pooh and gave me a $2 bonus for adding a little extra to my diaper. Mommy isn't sure that paying for pooh is a good idea because she thinks if I ever really caught on I would be a little pooh factory.

Anyhow, I get to go to work with Daddy all week and Mommy will pick me up lunch time every day. Maybe she will find it in her heart to take me shopping every day after work!!! HINT MOMMY!!!!

I got a package from the UPS man again today and it was even addressed to me!!! I got some presents from Mommy and Daddy's friends, Mr. William and Ms. Beverly. I get to meet them this May when I take my very first vacation to the Florida Keys. I can't wait. Mommy says that I won't be allowed to swim with the fish that trip...maybe not even the next trip...hmmm...I will let her have this trip but next year???? Oh well, I have time to work on her!

Well that is all for now! Oh yeah, Where's Joey????

And The Winner Is.....................

Daddy is claiming victory today. For the record, I let him win because I wanted to boost his confidence is his daddying ability. That's okay though because as you can tell from the picture, I have been pumping iron lately to boost my baby power. Daddy and I will have a rematch this one day this weekend. Good luck to him!!! We went to the office today for several hours. I got to hang out with Uncle Carl and cuddle with Auntie Cash (rut row, I mean Auntie Kay). I had a great time!

Tonight I got to cuddle with Mommy and we had some tummy time. Mommy says I am doing an excellent job holding my head up when I am on my tummy. I get to hang out with Mommy for the rest of the week. She says that if I am up to it, we are going to Dillards to spend my "baby credit card" and I am sure I will spend her gift card too!! Hee! Hee!

Zachary 1 Daddy 1

Daddy did a great job of taking care of me on Friday while Mommy worked! Mommy was quite impressed that I was clean and happy when she got home. She was even more pleased to see that Daddy was in one piece too!

Daddy will be taking care of me tomorrow too because Mommy has to work. So, I guess tomorrow will be the tie breaker day! Mommy and I will get to hang out the rest of the week. Maybe she will take me places!!
