(I blogged about it too!) The pictures just don't do the GIGANTIC ears justice do they? He was bitten 2 times on 1 ear so it looked like he had my dad's ear on. <br />They go down, but you can't help but laugh at it in the process!The HoneaBeeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16861344129936876352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005234532014158396.post-47591028818594924482009-07-09T09:37:24.007-05:002009-07-09T09:37:24.007-05:00That is exactly what happens to me and both my kid...That is exactly what happens to me and both my kids!!

Well, not us personally, but our hood.<br />When I saw the Thomas promo on TV for your area, I knew you'd be going. It came to B'ham, but we didn't catch it. Maybe next year. I do love Ross the Intern and I'd love to see him as a train engineer instead of a piece of fruit which he usually plays.<br />Hope the bites are better soon. We should compare Sloth pics sometime. I've got one of one of mine that would make you pee your pants and it is eerily Goonie if I do say so myself. Have a great weekend.<br /><br />BTW, the model in the background, is a Diaper Champ for clarification purposes.

It will last about 2 to 3 months. I use it at the Lake in Eufaula so my grandchildren don't get eaten alive. It works well. I think it is called "Bug B Gone"<br />Kathy GrangerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005234532014158396.post-82278872330167202952009-07-08T19:58:43.707-05:002009-07-08T19:58:43.707-05:00I have a similar picture of my son when he was abo...I have a similar picture of my son when he was about the same age...these things happen.

She has one now in the middle of her forehead that's been there for a week! Guess we need some deet too or just need to stay inside more.

Supposedly there are some other essential oils that work almost as well tho. <br /><br />On a totally different topic: We were on St George Island last Wednesday! We drove over there from where WE were on vacation. We played in the park by the lighthouse and ate dinner at that Blue Parrot restaurant. Hope you had a great vacation! We definitely relaxed.Stephanie Wetzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09856446767908308441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2005234532014158396.post-9867289084408205422009-07-08T15:38:38.682-05:002009-07-08T15:38:38.682-05:00mom says they bite me because I'm sweet too :)...mom says they bite me because I'm sweet too :)haha.
