So kind of gross picture, but Gunner has officially become our ant catcher or rather killer. We have these carpenter ants occasionally make their way into our house. Gunner loves to catch them and put them in the toilet. The other day Malia was in time out in her bedroom, I could hear her yelling but trying to ignore her, (this is almost a daily occurence lately for freaking out over nothing and lashing out and hitting Gunner, well sometimes it's not nothing because Gunner antagonizes her alot lately) Anyway, Gunner apparently had gone in there and came running back out yelling BU! BU! BU! (BUG) I go in and Malia is in her Sleeping Beauty costume with her dress all spred out with the ant crawling up it. Gunner says Tissue! Tissue! So I go and get him some and he jabs at the ant until he gets it on the paper whether it is dead or not. Then runs as fast as he can to the toilet, half the time dropping the ant 2 or 3 times before he gets there. He always eventually gets there, and is so proud of himself for getting it! He's our little protector.

Wow! What a brave kid! Those ants are scary looking... Kind of nice to have such a little protector around the house!
We were watching Man vs. Wild the other day and it was the one where Bear Grylls eats that nasty, juicy spider. Sterling just stared mesmerized saying, "No Dadda! No eat spider! No eat that one!" I think he thought Bear was on a suicide mission or something. I just think he's crazy- hot, but crazy!
I can just see this entire thing playing out in my mind and it's hilarious. I just read your post out loud to Mike and we're both laughing!
Thank heaven for little boys that aren't scared of anything that's creepy and crawly, right?
Awesome! Gunner is a stud...most little boys his age are scared to death of bugs! That is the coolest thing! We miss you guys!
LARA! I 'love' tagged you. Check out my blog. I'm looking forward to reading your answers!
Super cute story. I can't imagine Malia throwing a fit.. not Malia. ;)
I know Annaleece from Millville (Loan). We met while the hubby and I were finishing school at USU. GREAT family!
