strainer head—I don't think this will ever get old

unwelcome garden visitor (I know, pretty disgusting)

I look like a traffic cone

When you do things like this to entertain your kid…

…sooner or later they will return the favor.

That's my laptop bag. G-tot found it when he was rummaging through the larger bag I take to work. This is what he decided to do with it.

more stuff on my kid

I took this picture the other day and per Cruel Shoes request I'm sharing it with all of you. It was Gideon's 3 month birthday when I took it and when I showed it to Josh in the viewfinder of the camera he asked if it was supposed to be a party hat. Nope, just something to amuse me. For those of you that aren't sure, it's a coffee filter. Unbleached number 4 to be exact.

that's around 770 so far

Remember when Josh had the diaper/poker party and all the participants had to bring a pack of diapers with them? I'm very happy to say that we have yet to buy diapers because of this. Three months later. That rocks.
We finished up with the newborn size at just the right time and have gone through the last of the size ones that I wasn't crazy about (Kroger & Rite Aid). We are on the last box of Pampers 1-2 (my favorite diapers so far). It's a huge 216 pack box and a week or two ago I was thinking about how once we finished that we had 2 packs of size 2's left and then we would have to start buying our own.
I was super excited when I moved a blanket in the closet later that week and found several more packs of diapers. Josh had put them all away back in February and put all the size 2's up on a shelf. I couldn't see the other packs and had just assumed for a long time that once we used up everything that was stored on the floor we would have just those 2 packs left. Nope, we've got another 200+ diapers. That's almost another month's worth.

You're not going to put one of those on my head too, are you?
