Outside Fun and Teeth

On Friday morning, the older boys and I got to enjoy some time outside while Baby P napped.

C put a bug in his acorn collecting container and brought it over to me. After explaining that it looked like a harmless bug and we should leave it alone, he proceeded to still stomp on it. (So little impulse control.) The bug did not survive the stomp. So, here is C listening intently as I explained why we probably should not have killed that bug.



Here are the brothers collecting acorns...
Playing t-ball...





But after a while, it was time to go inside...
Oh, so hungry and tired!



Oh, yes - one more photo. Look closely at smiling Baby P and you can see 2 bottom teeth...


O.k., that's hard to see. We'll zoom in...

I'm not surprised he has 2 teeth already since C and L got there first teeth at 4 months. But the speed at which time is passing does not cease to boggle my mind. C is now 4, L will be 2 tomorrow and P is 5 months old. Wow!


A poem called Song for a Fifth Child by Ruth Hulburt Hamilton posted today on MckMama's blog helps illustrate how 'babies don't keep'.
