Bionic...What Now?

Ryvre will hate me for sharing this when he's older, but i really must.
He drew a bionic face. Guess what were on its cheeks...that's right, bionic testicles.

*ahem*

Do you have any idea how hard it was to try NOT to laugh at that?

Yes, he does know what testicles are. We use the proper terms for everything in this house. But i asked him to make sure, and he confirmed it for me. That's when i felt it was appropriate to laugh.

And it get's better.

When i asked him what the bionic testicles were for, he answered very matter-of-factly: "To power my bionic brain."

The truest words come from the mouths of babes, eh?

Kassi's Birthday


Kassi's Birthday Party

...of course i have pics of the birthday girl and her brothers, but you will have to go to Tabitha's site, because she understandably likes to keep such posts protected.

Boy Hair


Awesome news: we have a new camera!
So...
Hair!

These were intended as "before" pics, because Ryvre has been asking me for months to get a haircut.

But once we got to the salon, and started looking at books, he decided he only wanted a trim.  i'm secretly thrilled he's keeping his gorgeous locks, shhh...

Hot Springs


Here are some pics of the vacation we took in Hot Springs, Arkansas, well over a month ago.  Please excuse the poor quality, they were taken on a phone as our digital camera is broken
Ryvre picking up quartz behind our condo

Ember running around on the back porch

a really poor image of the stained glass ceiling in one of the bathhouses...something about Neptune and nymphs...

Ryvre and Willow at the bathhouse...the fountain (directly below the stained glass) is very cool too, but you can't tell by the pic.  It depicts a Native American myth, if i remember correctly.

That would be a tank behind the kids.  It's a memorial in the middle of a little park we visited every day.
