AN AVOCADO MONSTER

i found these photos on the camera after todd spent the day watching huck:






i don't know which is better -- that my baby loves avocado or that by the time i came home from work tonight my husband had bathed our boy and mopped our floors because of it.

RED. HOT. NAKED.




Q: WHICH IS YOUR FAVORITE ONE FOR HUCKLEBERRY?




A: the lion? the panda? the tiger? the grey monkey? or the green monkey?

RUB A DUB DUB

two boys in a tub
spike chose the toys
huck made some noise
but then not a peep
'cause he fell asleep

TWO COUSINS WERE AT THE PARK

one of them was tired . . .

. . . and one of them was wired.

ESTACADA, OR

huck's cousin jayde was in town this weekend, and so the three of us went to see the three of them at grandpa ted's new house in estacada. grandpa ted lives there with his lovely lady, grandma denise, and his dad (i.e. todd's grandad and huck's great grandad), grandpa lew.

these are the only shots i got of the little ones playing, and as you can see -- or, rather, can't see -- it was all a blur. it was a scrambling, scooting, and squealing blur of locomotion.






everything else about the visit, however, was quite still: quite peaceful, tranquil, organized, and still.

MIDNIGHT SNACK

so tonight after huck and i took a bath and he fell asleep, i tidied up a bit and fixed a late night snack to have with my bedtime tea: blackberry german pancakes with warm maple syrup.



i wasn't sure how the little delicacies made their way into my fridge until i saw these photos that grandma b took from her day spent at our house. now, though, i've cracked the case.

EN EL BANO CON UNA CAMARA

IN TEN TINY MINUTES

the Wily Wiggle Worm . . .







. . . became the Motionless Milk Mouth



. . . and the Spent, Sacked Out Sleeper.
