You know you're a redneck living in Africa when....

Dan is a city boy. I am a mut, born in Detroit but raised in the sticks of Tennessee. Elijah was born at his grandparents house but spent the first year of his life in Africa, so I'm not sure what that makes him. Either way, as much as I like to deny it, I know I've got that country twang in me. Lately, it has really come out in Dan as well. I guess I'm rubbing off on him. He has come up with all sorts of red neck solutions to our problems.

Anyways, here is our top 5 list of You know that you are a redneck living in Africa when:

5. You don't have a vacuum cleaner or a dog and so you purposefully put your baby on the floor to eat the crumbs around the dinner table. (sorry, no photo for demonstration)

4. You only have two warm baby pajamas with footsies but they are too slippery for him to walk in, so either A) make him wear his shoes over his pajamas.....

or B) unbutton his pajamas just around the feet.

3. Your baby's favorite toys during the month of June are old Christmas ornaments in a box of dirt.


2. You have to get your work done but don't want the baby touching the computer, so you just stick him on your shoulders. Easy solution!
