caught with his pants down

Our little Zack is obsessed with the camera. Every time I download pictures on my computer, I find an extra 400 that Zack has taken. It's annoying, but he has captured a few gems. I love his self-portraits (especially the one with the baby.) And the picture of Ben carrying Simon around the house is exactly what happens-- all day long. The weird (scary) picture of Luke is so.... Luke. And I love those dirty feet hiding in the hallway closet.


If ever I've lost my camera, all I have to do is ask Zack where it is. He always knows (that's because he's run off with it and hidden it in a secret spot.) A couple of times, I've seen the flash go off behind the couches, under the Christmas tree, or inside a closet and I know exactly where Zack is playing. We've even talked about getting him his own camera for Christmas... because he's hogging mine.

A couple of days ago, my mom saw the flash going off in the bathroom. She walked in to find Zack- with his pants down- reaching the camera around his back trying to get a few good shots of his bum. And he did. We laughed so hard when we found these two pictures on the camera...



This morning, Daddy was in the bathroom with the little perve.
This is the narration Zack gave while he peed:

"Get 'em, get 'em. Kill those pirates!"
Aaron: Who are the pirates?
"The bubbles. After I kill 'em, I can always make more."
"Oh man! I already ran out of bullets!"
"Hurry, I better pull up my shield!"
His shield is his underwear, of course.
Lucky for all of us, he was wearing it today.


What was life like without him? Not as entertaining, that's for dang sure.

Do you even know how much you are going to embarrass him when he is older? I would NEVER tell my mom ANYTHING if she would tell the whole world about it. Good luck being their friend when they are in Middle and High School.

Janet-
I love how often you post on your blog. After I check my email each day (always just a bunch of junk mail) I go right to your blog. It makes me feel like I have something to do each day. No pressure or anything, I just wanted you to know how much I love reading!

At Bed, Bath & Beyond they are selling a kid proof camera for $30, & with a 20% off coupon that makes it only $24. It holds up to 120 photos, has a viewing screen on the back, & comes with a USB cable. We're considering it too! Love the photos!

Kev- what do you think my husband and I fight about 100% of the time? What I post on the blog. I think the boys will forgive me eventually. At least it's getting recorded and not lost forever. Wouldn't you like to have known that you shot pee bullets at pretend pirates in the toilet? I think Zack will appreciate it.

And Em, thanks for the camera tip. Zack's will definitely need to be KID PROOF.

Rachel- I love you and miss you lots!

No, I wouldn't like to have someone record it. That is what I am trying to say. :) At least your boys will have an uncle they will like in ten years.
