Nothing....

I always pause when the boys are out here and one of their parents calls and says,
"What did you do today?" and they  always respond "Nothing." 
In my mind I usually reflect and want to whisper in their ear, "tell her you went fishing, or 
tell her we read for 20 minutes, but don't tell her NOTHING....
Last night when Toby's mom called he said, " Nothing, and I'm to tired to talk now. "
This response demands a retraction or at least some kind of acknowledgement of activities in the last few days. 




Chloe has been reaching for toys...
She can't control them yet, but if she could they would go straight into her mouth. 
This baby girl's future will be :put everything in my mouth and see how it tastes


And then there is Uncle Cole trying to teach Chloe how to roll over on the floor. 
She did it once and Cole is convinced he can show her how to do it again. 


He took the time out from building the air soft gun him and grandpa are making 
for his birthday out of PVC pipes. 
They spent a few hours in town hunting down the parts. 


And Toby has spent the last couple of days carting around his toad collection...
He talks to them and pets them, and makes them play dead ...


Did you know that Lizards do the same thing if you put them on their back?
play dead, I mean... 
Unless they are hanging off your ear.
And how can they forget fishing for the entire morning and the great Wiper one of them caught...
 Not to mention the chicken chasing, chores so I can make some money, or weed picking that's being done all the while doing nothing. 


Anyway, I'm just saying...
There has been a lot of nothing going on here, and I'm exhausted:)
Gotta go 
Chloe needs another bottle
