Eclectic interactions...

Okay, I know that you all missed my senseless ramblings; so I'm back to satisfy all the cravings that you have had for your daily Smith Family update.

This picture here is a picture of the little lizard that crept into our house two weeks ago. He ran through the door, across the living room and under the couch. We searched for him almost daily. We upturned furniture, unloaded drawers and just caused a massive upheaval of the front of our house in general. Eventually we assumed that he had died. Tonight he ran across the wall and with our sticky hands and quick minds we were able to catch him before he could find a better hiding spot. He didn't go down without a fight thought; we had to coax him out from behind a picture on the wall after we scared him with the flash on our camera.

This my friends is a picture of the first thong Jane will ever wear. (I am not naive enough to let myself believe that it is the last thong she will ever wear.) We didn't do it on purpose. I know what you guys are thinking, "Jeez, they torture their child." No, no my friends, she did this all to herself. That skirt is a little awkward to begin with but after running and crawling and hiding in all of the small spots she could find in the restaurant we ate at for dinner the skirt fought back.

Tuesday was Park Day for the local play group. Jane loves this park because she gets to run around on all of the play things that are made for kids that are my size and I spend the whole time hyperventilating behind her. One of the other mom's joked by saying that she would catch Jane if someone else would catch me when I fainted. Secretely they all think I am crazy...

Jane isn't a fan of taking pictures when she is tired.

We took Jane to the pumpkin patch and she walked in unsure of herself but realized really quickly that we had taken her to a field full of funny sized balls that rolled wierd when she threw them. It was cute but then we decided we should leave before she broke one.

No, no, you're not hullicinating. That does look like a pumpkin stem growing out of Jane's head. We've been doing some experimental treatments on Jane trying to get her to grow faster. This is the only thing that developed. We love our little one-horned monster.
