Let's see... so many random happenings of late have occurred around the Shaw household.
First there was an incident. Have I mentioned that one of my blog titles I threw around was "Natural Blonde" with the tagline reading "I do unnatural things naturally." Albeit true, I felt this was a bit narcissistic since the intent of this blog is to document family happenings.
A couple of weeks ago Elle started screaming because there was a "scary stingy thing" in the house. It was a wasp, and I too thought it was a scary stingy thing. I put the girls in Elle's room and grabbed a broom. In my attempt to get rid of him, this happened.

Oopsies.
On the up side it gave Jay some time to exercise his handyman skills.
Dad of course was there to provide direction and comic relief to my natural way of modernizing our home.
And Lu is aways just Lu... happy whether she's parading around in broken glass or not.
A few days later Dad and I went paddling in his newest creation.
This is dad's signature of sorts. He has drawn this character on everything for as long as I can remember. I am quite certain it his self-portrait.
He thought it would be fun to hang over the side of the dam. I didn't get too nervous until I saw onlookers covering their mouths with an audible (over the water) gasp.
I know... most awesome selfie of all time!
Times with my Wolfie are always an adventure!
Later that week, Elle came home from "school" with our newest family addition.
Please meet Hairy Harry.
Apparently Harry is short for Harriet. Elle thought he/she needed an accessory.
Caroline broke out in her first fever virus. Actually, it was the first for the house. Elle has never had one before and all my poor nurse friends had to direct me on motherhood 101 meets Tylenol basics.
She ended up with this rash which meant she had Roseola.
Elle was super bummed because this meant she missed a much anticipated birthday party. We decided to make the most of it and headed to Aunt Tracie's the next week.
We watched Juju run and Elle was her very best "chick.a.later." (Interpretation = Cheerleader)
While not cheering for Juju...
she is the fastest one with the most toned legs in red and black...
Elle gorged on cheetos.
Caroline was just sweet Caroline the whole time. She got a bit restless once her bedtime had come and gone twice over, but overall she was great.
Fun times! I know these are the best days and I try to appreciate them!! Thanks Aunt Tracie for being the most hospitable person I know and letting us wreak havoc upon your previously clean home!
And lastly, I got to celebrate my third mother's day, first as a mom of two.
These are my loves.
