Better than...

Reed was the 2nd of us awake this morning. He was in a really happy mood and curled into my lap for a long, sweet hug.

"Is there anything better than a Daddy hug," I asked rhetorically.

"Kisses!," he shouted and gave me a few.

Reed's Smelly Fingers

After their bath last night, Reed and hunter were wrestling and rolling around on my bed, naked. Reed rolls over onto his back, clasps his legs against his body and spreads his butt cheeks with his hands.

Lovely eh?

“ Dad, look what’s in my butt”, says Reed.

Even with a casual glance I could see his pancreas he had gaped his bunghole so wide.

“There is nothing in your bung hole, Reed.”

“Then why does it stink?”

“It only stinks when you poop, Reed.”

“Well…when I stick my fingers there sometimes, they smell.”

Hunter's Favorite Shirt in the World (Age 2.5)



Hunter asks for this shirt all the time and is disappointed or even angry when it is in the wash.

I actually removed a couple of long-term stains in Photoshop --this shirt sees heavy duty!

When you ask him which robot is his favorite, he says as he points to each, "This one, this one, this one and this one!"

Bad? Words

Mechelle: What word does Mommy say when she gets mad?

Reed: Dammit!

Hunter: I say shit when I get mad, Mommy!
...on mobile.

With Granny Florida at the NJBG



Had a great day with the boys and my Mom at the NJ Botanical Garden in Ringwood on Wednesday (the 8th) last week.

Flowers really weren't in full stride but it was just great being out with family in the verdant Skylands of NJ.

Got Reed & Hunter to walk more than typical but ended up carrying them back simultaneously to the car about a 1/2 mile.

We caught a frog that still had it's tadpole tail (& I inexplicably took no photos of it!), R&H touched a statue's "junk", found a pond I had never seen before. Cant wait to go back!
