Madonna is getting big!

Madonna still ACTS like a kitten, but I don't currently have a working video camera. So I took a picture to show how big she is getting. She is still playful and an absolute delight. And frankly, it's an absolute miracle that I was able to get her to sit still--and pose SO nicely--so that I could take this picture of her yesterday.



Gentlest alarm clock EVER







Perkins has been an absolute doll baby this weekend!

Elephant Ears

From This Week Community News:


From rides to livestock, pork loin to elephant ears, art to bungee jumping -- the Ohio State Fair, as usual, offers satisfaction for most any taste. 
Perkins sampled some elephant ears today, and while he approves of the mouth feel, he remarked that they don't really "haz much of a flavor".




What this elephant does have is something crucial for a toy that has any chance of becoming a favorite--a squeaker. So I think now is the time for muddy, chewed up Mr. Lion to slip away quietly...in the night.

Perkins takes a break



He's been playing "catch" with himself.

Playground equipment--or level of hell?

We saw this contraption yesterday in a playground we passed while out for a walk. I was amused. What was it, a Mobius climber? When we passed it again on our way back to the car, I decided I just had to take a picture of it.


Upon closer examination, I noticed that the thing had a sticker on it. It read "Infinity Climbers."



"...and, as your punishment for the many unspeakable acts you have committed (which we will not name, because that would make them "speakable"), you are hereby condemned to spend all eternity climbing on this...um...whatever this thing is!"

Sounds ominous...


So, I saw this sign at a local park today, and it caught my attention. True, every park I've ever visited has had some sign near the entrance, notifying visitors that the park is only open during daylight hours.


But I'd never seen this particular turn of a phrase before--the park is closed during hours of darkness. That just sounds spooky. No problem--I'll make sure I'm far away from your park when the Hours of Darkness come. Wouldn't want to take a chance of running into Voldemort...
