Flipping the bird.

Alexander came home today with a new boo-boo. He was more excited to show me that then he was to tell me about going on his field trip to the bug museum and getting creamery ice cream after it.

A short while after walking in the house, he came up behind me and said, "MOMMMM!" and did this.

I couldn't help but laugh.

Speaking of birds, for those keeping a "Ripley Kill Count" (you know who you are out there), she killed four black birds around the yard this weekend. In fact, we witnessed one hunt in action. She was jumping up getting it out of the air, plucking it on the ground, giving it a moment to recover and takeoff again, then snapped it out of the air again. Amazing and a bit disturbing.
