Yes, That Is an Actual Real (Half a) Human Brain in a Jar. *gag*

I am conflicted about the Science Center.  On one hand, the kids love it.  On the other hand, it's crowded.  But, it's super educational!  It's also super germy.  It's air conditioned!  But it's expensive.  It's easy to lose your kids.  It's easy to lose your kids!  (kidding, kidding).

We've had a membership for the past three years, and technically we've gone often enough that it's been a good investment.  But only barely.  And I think I'm ready for a break.  Sorry, Science Center, it's me, not you.  Okay, really it's you.

We still have about a month left on this pass though, so the kids are taking advantage.  Yeehaw.

(apologies that some of the pictures are a little wonky, I'm trying to shoot more in manual and sometimes things don't quite work out as anticipated)

All of the Memories. (From This Past Weekend, Anyway).

It gives me anxiety when I think about how many pictures I take but don't post or print.  I want to share ALL OF THE MEMORIES! GAH!  I do.  But I just don't have the time to post it all, or print it all.  And to be perfectly honest, I haven't legitimately printed pictures since 2006. GUILT. I FEEL GUILT.  I do though meticulously archive all our pictures.  They're painstakingly labeled by year/month/day/activity on my computer.  And backed up.  (Every year or so.)  (I know. MORE GUILT. STOPPIT.)

I figure at some point things will eventually slow down and I can take my time to build beautiful bound books of all our pictures.  Volumes upon volumes for my library.  No, I don't actually have a library.  But I don't really have (or foresee) excesses of time in the near future, so really it's just minor details.  I hope things don't slow down too soon.  Because as much as I'd love those albums, spare time would mean my babies went and growed themselves up.  And surely, I can wait on that.  No rush, kids.  No rush at all.

What all that gibberish amounts to is my excuse for including an exceedingly ridiculous number of pictures in my recent and upcoming posts.  Because I don't have the time, energy, or inclination to put them up separately.  Nor do I think you want me to start writing you my love letters several times a day.  You do know these are my love letters to you, right?  Well, to my kids anyway.  But we're all family.  Or something.  Oh, goodness.  It's late, just enjoy the pictures and pretend I didn't commit any of this nonsense to paper.  (Which, I didn't if we're getting really technical.  So long as you don't print it.  DON'T PRINT IT!).

Sorry.

Also, I don't take enough video.

There will be more video!

Yes!
