Don't look too long, you'll get hypnotised

Intro to Worms 101

First, let Daddy find the worm. He'll hold it and you just stand back and look at it. Don't let it near you - worms are icky!!

After you are sure Daddy put the worm down pick up a stick and show it to everyone. Call it a worm.
Find a shovel. Have Daddy put worms in the shovel so you can look at them. When you are done looking at them fling them back into the dirt.

Finish by filling in the hole Daddy dug.

Oliver did eventually touch a worm. When he did it stuck to his finger for about 1/100th of a second and he cried for about 5 minutes. He had to keep looking over his shoulder, though, to make sure the worm wasn't crawling out of the dirt to get him.

Wyatt enjoying the great outdoors.

I put Wyatt in his cool (hand-me-down) Panthers jacket to go outside but then realized the snaps had all come off! Oh well, he wore it anyway - it wasn't really that cold. Oliver and I showed him leaves and sticks and things...all of which he cooed and laughed at. He spent a good deal of time with his left sleeve in his mouth, though.

Playing around...

Oliver was "fishing" with his glow stick. It is actually battery operated so it's pretty cool. Anyway it has a string on one end and he was using it to "catch" the fish. I actually made that fish using Bob's jigsaw...or scroll saw?...band saw? ok some kind of saw, but I made it!

Here he is being a jedi. I love the action shot!

I voted!

Yesterday we waited in line for about an hour to vote. This was my first time voting...ever. It was easy. The touch screen made everything super simple. While we were waiting in the line Oliver was really well behaved for the most part and Wyatt hung out (asleep half the time) in the Moby. I've had 3 people call or come by the house today trying to get me to vote for someone or other. Weird


Anyway, Oliver is now next to me saying "Mim...Maverick! Drill, Baby, Drill!!" --too funny!!
