Mascot Update
Mama Buzz lurves ABC books! They got some new ones for Christmas, so when she rearranged the living room book display to feature just their ABC collection. The majority of their books are on shelves up in the bedrooms.

Waking the ‘Rents
Bunny climbed into their bed with her books, then decided to check out Mama’s big chapter book. In this pic, she looks SO much like her Mama did at that age, plug included LOL.
Buzz took a more direct approach. He handed Mama her eye glasses, then went and got her wedding and engagement rings from the dish she keeps them in when she isn’t wearing them and came back to the bed and carefully put them on her left ring finger one at a time. π

Check out our little superhero in his League of Incredible Vegetables t-shirt!

Lil Buzz went in for his first (of two) hearing tests, the one in a sound booth sitting on Mom’s lap. All results perfect! They have a month to practice wearing headphones before the second appointment. These aren’t due to any concerns, but because the doctor wants him to see a speech therapist, because he doesn’t talk yet. The insurance will pay for it, but only if they have hearing tests done first. So it’s mainly just to evaluate and probably end up reassuring all of us what we already think, which is that he will talk when he’s darn good and ready … just like his Daddy does.

Dad Creates Time-Lapse Video Showing Mom What Really Happens While She’s Away
This is wonderful! I love where he slows it down at certain spots and at the end where they give Mama some sugar. π

Life is precious
Today, author Gavin McInnes slammed abortion by tweeting his kids’ remarks during the day. Twitchy posted the tweets. I’ve added some pics and a link at the end that might save you a trip or three to the ER someday.
I have my own stories, one about a might-be-broken arm (it wasn’t), one about a might-need-stitches gash (it did) and a third about a might-be-suffocating wheeze (a trip out into the frigid winter air cleared it right up). But I had to parent pre-internet, when getting free medical advice meant conning some nervous-about-getting-sued health care professional into actually telling you something useful over the telephone. Parents today are So Spoiled!
Anyway, enough of that. On to the CUTE stuff. FYI: Gavin’s daughter Sophie is about 5 yo and his son Duncan is maybe 3. (Last February, they were 4 and 2.)

28 Dec 12: Gavin McInnes @Gavin_McInnes
I’m going to Tweet my kids’ quotes for a day so you can see how lame abortion is.
“I want to get healthy and drink milk because I’m going to fight you in a few days.” -Daughter
“That’s the way it was back in the old days. You had to fight before you eat.” -Son
“Thank you, cow” daughter after drinking from milk carton. “Don’t drop this cow’s guts” to brother.
“Scientists say: When you read a book of love, you just fall apart.” -Son
“I wish you were fried chicken.” -Daughter
“I’m hungry to the touch.” -Son
“It’s the world to give, my darling.” -Son handing me a drawing of a castle
“When great granny gets to be 100, is she going to be taller than you?” -Son
“Oh I get it. He has tricks that I don’t have.” -Son instagr.am/p/TytuRzDlCh/

“What if the principal at my school was named Ms. Chickanoodoo?” -Son (laughing)
“I’m not crying. When it’s really cold, my eyes get sweaty.” -Son (outside)
“I have to go poo and I want YOU to wipe my butt.” -Son (said like my wife just won something) <– My favorite!
Now all you parents of very young people, go read this. You might need to know it someday.

Our Church Tag Baby’s Toy
I was so tickled to learn that Daddy Buzz has dubbed my favorite scrappy fabric project “Grammy Ball.” (I’m Grammy Hyphen to the wee ones.)
