How {Sweet} It Is

It's 9:55p.m.  I've been feverishly working on my "A Week In the Life."  And the days seem to blend together with their redundancy.  It's not that I'm boring... just sort of immersed in never ending projects that I dabble in daily.  The difference with working on the project, though, is that I seem to pick different things to capture with my camera.  Yadon is grateful that he's not the focus of my lens for the week.  Chi is... well, she's quickly advancing into that scary 'tween stage that is at times fascinating and at others frustrating for this parenting party of one.

I took a lot of pictures of the kids this weekend playing with their bubble blower.  Ya is currently obsessed with bubbles.

He blows them in the car, in the house, wherever he finds the battery-powered toys. I was suckered into buying two of them in the grocery store a few weeks ago (one of those "fine.  You can hold it if you stop whining" hand outs that ended up costing me an additional $16).

Chi doesn't have the same affection for the blowers.  Within minutes of getting ahold of the things, she's put it down in favor of other interests.

She especially likes the water pistol - perfect for when she wants to hit her unsuspecting brother with a stream of water.  Maybe it's payback for all those mean swats and bites he's lavished on her? 5.14 (62web)
Somehow bubble blower vs. super soaker does not seem an even match...

Payback?
 It works both ways.
