shut up!

Yesterday, Choua and I were talking and Roan was in the room with us. Anyone who knows me, knows that I say "Shut up" a lot; and most times, it's not meant in the mean way.

So as we are heatedly talking, I hear a little voice say, "shu up." I look at Choua and we are both very aware that Roan has just said what we both thought he said. So to diffuse the situation, I quickly tell Roan that we shouldn't use that word. Thank God I haven't heard it since.

Usually we are dying to hear him say things. This is the first time that he's every sad anything that we both didn't want to hear.

Below, a picture I took on our walk that I am thinking of turning into a texture for a blend.

Over the weekend our friends gave us free passes to the Shedd Aquarium. It was tricky trying to get in an out before Roan's nap, especially since we'd both been up late the night before, celebrating my birthday.

Above: Roan loves bubbles.

On our way back to the car. I left it crooked on purpose because I didn't want to cut out anymore of his face. I didn't plan quickly enough when taking the picture.
