I will admit it, I TOTALLY, COMPLETELY forget it is Father's Day. 100% out of my mind. I am losing my mind. So, I am thinking it is OK to forget because there is still daylight left. HA HA! I haven't even called my own Dad yet. Which by the way is the best , ever! He used to make us pancakes on Saturday mornings, I love that memory. He will still make me breakfast (grand kids too) when we visit. Mostly because I sit around waiting for him to get to it.
Now, the naked bums in this pics are NOT kiddie porn. The kids decided to strip down and play in the water in the yard. I mean strip down naked. Melissa thought this was quite funny, as you can see when I caught her with the camera.
On a new note, Ryan is trying so so hard to walk. Uh, yeah 8 months old (today) is a little early for this. He had pulled himself up and is standing in his crib. He is now pulling up and letting go. If you hold his hands he tries to walk. I think he will be my busy kid. Always on the run.
Caleb caught tadpoles the other day. I mean we live in the DESERT, the DESERT. So where these tadpoles came from I don't know. I don't know if I want to know. He caught six of them and only one survived. The first one died the other night, he cried and cried. There was serious tears shed over "the little dead baby tadpole". He used to say when he was little "but it is just a baby!" He said it again last night. I mean HOURS of crying. The pillow was still damp this morning over the loss of the tadpole. And by morning four more had gone to animal heaven. The one left is getting legs. No we are not keeping it. I made the deal that once it turns into whatever swamp monster it is, then we will take a trip to the Rio Grande and let it go.
And lastly, I am so close to being done with Christmas shopping. Oh yeaahh. I know most people think I am crazy. But I will tell you when you are out there fighting the crowd, traffic and stressing about trying to find the gift you need for someone. I will be laughing-quietly-because I will be all done. :) Granted it was not the biggest haul in the kids or Ron have ever had. But something is better than nothing.

Did I ever tell you about the tadpole I had that grew into a small tree frog? Oh yes. I kept him in a bowl and fed him fish food and named him and cried bickets of tears when he finally went to froggie heaven. Seriously. Tell Caleb I feel his pain. :)
