What's better than a box of croutons????

.....A fly swatter of course!!!







That's right. Jack has a new favorite toy. It's a little strange, yes, but we are glad to see he has an imagination. (That makes it ok, right?) Hahahaha. Don't worry. It's not a fly swatter that's in use. It's strictly Jack's CLEAN swatter! The love for this new item is WAY stronger than the love for the box of croutons we were experiencing last week. We have all out melt downs when it's time to put the swatter down. I'm talking screaming, shrieking, lots of tears, stiff body, flailing arms, the whole shebang! When he wakes up from his nap and walks out to the living room where does he go first? For his milk?? NO! For a snack??? NO! For the swatter....OH YEAH! He walks around with it up against his face looking through all the tiny holes. He stirs Sadie's water bowl with it and then does a drive by swat to one of us. Nothing like getting smacked by a wet fly swatter. :-) It's a strange relationship but he really does love his fly swatter. Hahahahah




He's definitely growing because nothing is safe on the table, counters or high shelves any more.

That is TOO cute (and way fun, according to Josh)! My boys enjoy the fly swatter too. Only ours have been used so they don't love it like Jack. Maybe if I got them a clean one?

Oh I wish we were closer so we could get our boys together again. I bet Jack and Deacon would have a great time together.

Say hi to Tom for us!

Amazing what they find to play with:) Megan has just found Roxy's food and water bowl and throughly enjoys splashing it everywhere. Wes just learned to knock Megan over and realized that if I don't see it, and she doesn't scream, he gets away with it.

Have you met any more people in your neighborhood?

Mike and I cracked up at Jack’s huge maniacal grin! Too funny.
