God promised never to destroy the world with a flood again, but after 4 days straight of rain it sure feels like we're all going down. I know we aren't getting it as bad as a lot of places and I am thankful for that, but here is my backyard. That can't be good for my grass! Maybe this is just some shameless movie promotion for Evan Almighty, which I hear is a decent family friendly movie.

Blubber Bots
Blubber Bots
"Blubber Bots are DIY robotic species that navigate autonomously and intelligently. Blubber Bots float, dance, seek and sing. They are light-seeking helium-filled balloons that graze the landscape in search of light and cell-phone signals. If you make a call and wave your phone near a Blubber Bot, it will go into a flocking dance or sing you a special tune. They bellow sounds similar to a whale’s song and serenade you with melodies. When not being played with, they rest for awhile, awakening periodically and seeking attention...
...They propel themselves using helium buoyancy and two directional motors...."
Originally they used hydrogen for buoyancy, but as you can imagine, that did not end well.

Super Parents?
Jacob has now made several references to how Jenny and I can see through things. I asked him why he thought that and he told me a story about how he was doing something he shouldn't behind a wall or something and we new what he was doing. That is on top of the fact that we have told him things like how we can always tell if he is not telling the truth and how we always know when he is doing something wrong. Yesterday he wanted me to help him come find a moth in the basement because I can see through things. I haven't had the heart to tell him that I can't. The sad thing is that in reality he can probably see better than I can.
My Nerd Score
Thats about what I expected.
Today at lunch Jacob and I were telling Jenny about a Super Massive Blackhole show we watched on the Science channel. When we were finished Jenny just looked at me and said, "You realize after saying all of that your Nerd Score just went up a few points."

A Samuel Homecoming
Resting up to head home.
(You can see some scratches on his face from his long fingernails. The scratches aren't as bad as they look in that picture though)
Right before we leave.
(Jenny looks nervous b/c the nurse is waiting for us while I insist on taking some pictures)
Samuel Settles In
Jacab and Ethan were both excited to hold him. Ethan is obsessed with "helping" Samuel with his binky. The new rule is that Ethan isn't supposed to touch it. Jacob, as you can see in the picture is very helpful with the binky.
Samuel shows off how strong he is by lifting his head after only being out in the big world for about 36 hours. At one point I laid him on his stomach then I went to get my camera and when I turned back around he was on his back. Thanks Betsy for the great blanket!
**He really doesn't cry that much. Just when I am taking pictures.
