Geese Poop and Osmotic Diarrhea











We are alive!

Finally settled down in our house, after a year or so of wandering in the wastelands of the West, so, now it's time to get moving again? Right? NO! Not happenin'. Back to the subject at hand.

We went to Encanto Park today! It's finally cooling down some so it's nice to get out. Sophie has tons of fun feeding the geese, until she got bit a few times! She still loved to run around though, well at least until she biffed it and scraped her forehead in the dirt, dirt that geese love to walk and poop in. Hmmm maybe we should have washed her hands (and her forehead) afterward.....

Note to those interested, Apple juice, when not dilluted will give your kids some nice osmotic diarrhea. (It's due to your body not absorbing the fructose in the apple juice very well, in case you wanted to know, though I know you probably didn't---that comment's from the captain of the "nerd herd" my hubby).

Finally! Wow she is so big and so cute!! Miss you! and yes, we knew that about juice- Zach gets about one part juice to like 6 parts water so he doesn't get a sore bum :) He doesn't notice so we're good.

Osmotic diarrhea is always a hot dinner conversation. Who wouldn't want to know why our bodies make all those weird smells and sounds.
