wax on wax off

I htought this picture was pretty cute considering Lindsay took it one handed and somehow captured Erik's smile without knowing it.

Welcome to moon family evening entertainment. Every evening Erik starts to get fussy about an hour before his bath and bed time, so we do all sorts of insane things to keep him entertained and distracted until it's time to play in the water. We figure playing and getting him to laugh is much more fun than continuously listening to his whining ( a new thing for him is to squeal and screach a lot for everything now). We still get fusses throughout but it's much more bearable when we play like goofballs. So the other night Lindsay decided to turn Erik into the karate kid and we got a kick out of it!




Erik actually kept his bandana on for a good twenty minutes or so before he pulled it off. So then we, well Lindsay started to hold ERik really high to the ceiling and bringing him down fast......that is the activity that gets Erik to laugh the fastest, it's super cute. Although tonight all I had to do was bounce him up and down while holding him in the cradle position and it was getting him going. If only my life were that simple to get a kick out of such things!


THis was Boomer last night, notice the frothy mouth. No our dog does not have rabies..............we showed him a big frog that was in our yard and he was pushing it with his nose and next thing we know he was frothing at the mouth, wouldn't drink any water and was trying to spit. It was funny but sad too. Finally Linds turned on the hose and hosed down his mouth the help Boomer rinse all the yuckiness out.

This was the huge toad...

We took a video of Boomer chasing it, but it was taking forever to load, so maybe another time. . Right after the video stopped Boomer punched the frog with his paw, but it escaped unharmed. I think he was trying to get it back for putting such a nasty taste in it's mouth!

Awwww! And this was my two men, one big and one small while watching tv earlier. So cute I couldn't resist. And no Lindsay was not smiling for me, he was laughing at the show. I was just lucky and caught it!
