Mid week already?!

So we're about a third our way through November. Already?! Well that was quick. Maybe this current cold snap has frozen my brain. (This morning it was a balmy 32.5 degrees outside our window.)

Before I throw some pictures at you I'll pass along the latest cute Helena story.

This evening getting ready for a bath, there was a quite noticable red line across Helena's bottom. Couldn't quite tell if it was a scratch or just a mark from sitting on the edge of a chair or what so I asked her about it. Mistake. As you know, unlike the tree falling in the woods when no one is around an injury a child doesn't see just doesn't hurt - no question about it. They don't see it, doesn't hurt.
But I've pointed it out and now the wimpering and crying. Now she doesn't want to take her bath. (This part isn't really new, she's on her not wanting to bathe kick again). She and I go on and on. You need to take a bath. I don't want to. It will help your boo-boo get better. But it hurts.
Anyone whose ever been within two miles has heard this conversation so I'll jump to the punchline.
Helena heads out of the bathroom to show Lisa the mark on her butt. What happened Helena?

I got a radish on my bottom.

And now the pictures.












Ack! Who is the guy with Megan! Sorry for the small size on those pitures, seems I forgot to change a setting. Will repair before the next load.
