Exploring Nature: Bugs! **UPDATED**

Jammy found some cool bugs in the tree. What are they???

Nice discovery, Jammy!

These give Mom the heebie-jeebies!

**UPDATE** Mom has super smart friends who informed her that this is a bunch of baby Aurilus Cristatus or "wheel bugs." She found some matching wheel bug pictures on youtube.

Macho's new favorite thing

Coffee Time

Macho loves routines. Every day when Mom picks him up from preschool, he says, "Now we need to get you some coffee. Let's put our stuff down on the coffee table. I'll get a cup for you. Now you need some 'cwean.' Is it hot, mom? Let it cool down." He uses the same words, at the same time, every single day. Mom will put a little coffee in her cup, even if she doesn't want any, because the ritual is so important to him.

Macho says . . .

while getting ready to go to preschool, "I want to bling a toy! I want to tell the kids this is my Peterbilt truck. Please, please, please, Mom? I want to bling a toy!"

Mom Should be More Specific

After he wiped his mustardy fingers on her, Mom asked Macho to go get a napkin from the counter. Since there were 2 "napkin dispensers" Macho just grabbed some from the one that was easiest to reach and brought back a handful.

Guess where Macho's napkins came from.
