The boys are in this strange habit of carrying objects everywhere they go. Actually, carrying objects isn't strange per se ("Percy," as Barton says) ... but you'd think it'd be a stuffed animal or blanket. Logie usually wants to carry a DVD case or a book (not so strange). Dane, on the other hand, is fixated on carrying toothpaste and now he's just added hand lotion to his must-carry list (somewhat strange). And not just any toothpaste; it has to be Hello Kitty toothpaste. Last night, the toothpaste tube burst at the seams from too much wear and tear. Those toothpaste tubes just aren't made to be toted around to every park, grocery store and playdate in Austin! Well, this did not go over well with Danie and he threw an absolute fit over the loss of "Kitty," as he affectionately refers to the tube. Gotta go replace that toothpaste pronto!
Lotion ... check.
Toothpaste ... check.
Plastic train engineer ... check.

Happiest Place on Earth?
I took The Bug to Orange County last week and we braved Disneyland. I couldn't believe that tickets now cost $70 per person! Has Mickey gone elitist on us? Do families of six have to take out second mortgages on their homes to afford an excursion? Luckily, Auntie Cheri "hooked us up." She has a friend that works there, who got us in free, along with parking and stroller rental. All I can say is "Thank God!" I already had reservations about taking Nicole there. She's always been extremely skittish about rides. It took MANY trips to Happy Hollow to even get her on the Merry-Go-Round. Well, we were able to go on a whoppin' three rides during our day at Disneyland ... the Autopia (she was so scared, she tried to leap off), Roger Rabbit (I'm still hearing how "The Rabbit is scarewy!) and The Monorail (more Nicole's speed). Auntie Cheri, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! I would have been majorly peeved if I paid over nearly $200 to go on three rides, two of which my child hated. Now, the food on the other hand, was an entirely different story. Nicole was in Hog Heaven eating cotton candy, ice cream and other sweets that created sugar-induced toddler mania. Fun for all!
Our sister got to go to Disneyland and all we got were these stupid mouse ears.
