Bubble Angels

Funny, funny Foo. Yes, Finny! Many of you know that we call Finny "Foo" sometimes. That actually has nothing to do with the story though, but calling him Foo for this story just flows better.

Foo's got quite a sense of humor lately. Today he climbed on top of the back of a chair to reach the bubbles high on a shelf. After safely getting back to the cement driveway, Foo began his bubble blowing. Funny in itself as he puffs so hard when he blows that there's really no way a gentle bubble will survive. He manages to blow a few bubbles and then decides that just dipping the wand and spraying Lexi and the rest of us with bubble juice is way more fun. This is funny for awhile-- for Foo and for us.



Then, it gets funnier. Foo pours the entire container of bubbles out on the driveway. Bummer, right? Well, watch what happens next....



Bubble Angels! Who knew.

Sunshine

Patrick calls Lexi "Sunshine". This picture captures our sunshine. Taken from an iPhone no less.

Wolf Pack


Patrick recently placed these magnets on the back of his car to show his school spirit. When Lexi saw the Wolf Pack logo she said "Daddy, why did you take that (referring to the wolf) off your shirt?"

Waterlogged

The past several weeks have been busy between my travels back and forth to Chicago (one time with Lexi in tow) and Patrick and Heath's wedding visit to NC. We have continued to explore the area here in Maine. Here are a couple of recent Lennon water extravaganzas.

Back Cove Water Fountain Park
This is a great toddler park which also happens to have a water fountain the kids can play in.




Ferry Beach (Scarborough)
This is our new favorite beach. Here we visited with Sam, Jen and Jess.




Car Wash
Finn and Lexi help Patrick wash the car while Heath and I watch from a far.



Well Lexi helped at any rate. Finny tried....



Heath thinks it's all pretty funny...(he looks a little bit like an old man here with lots of chins and the uncomfortable looking ball cap).
