Newsflash - Wife reports that son has discovered penis

Last week the family went on "vacation" to our condo at the beach (the one that is a money vacuum) and much work was had by all adults present. I had just gotten back from Honduras and got to "relax" with the twins and Lolo for an entire week.

During last week both of the twins started laughing. It is not a forceful laugh buy very soft and kind of understated but nonetheless a laugh. Another milestone.




Lolo spent the entire week in the pool except of course for when this picure was made. She is just too damn prissy to hang out on the beach for an extended period of time. Sure she got her ya-yas chasing seagulls that she could not catch (thank Zeus running makes her tired) and letting me bury her up to her neck in the sand. But the fun was always punctuated by a request to go to the pool. At first the waves excited her too but the fun of that wore off after the second day and she didn't' want anything to do with the salt water. So the day would always end with the wife tending to pooping, puking and crying twins and me standing in freezing hyperclorinated water catching a 2.5 year old throwing herself into the pool repeatedly for two hours at a time.

Nevertheless, I really enjoyed it and didn't want to come home.

The wife informed me yesterday the Atticus has found his penis. He is way ahead of me. I'm still looking for mine.

I was shocked the first time my son found his penis - I didn't know that the male fascination with it started so early! (and his first erection - scared the hell out of me - I didn't know those started so early either!)

I haven't had the shock of an erection yet. Oh boy I can't wait!

Were the twins born smiling?? THey always look SO happy. Really cute! I'm with Lolo - you can keep the beach. The only time I like it is in cooler weather when you can sit on it in a sweater and cuddle up to someone to watch the waves. Sounds like Dad of 3 is making for fun times. Your tribute in the earlier post was awesome - thoughts of love and peace to you and yours every day. Thanks for the recent visit.

Super cute little babies you got there... they look so happy! Atticus is a darling name, too! I have a daughter, so she hasn't discovered a penis yet. I dread the day when she does. :)
