Let's Go Eat A Bug

I traded Sam for Zach last weekend, and we headed over to Beaumont, Texas for the Eat A Bug Festival at the art museum. Zach was set from the get-go because he said that bugs don't have pig in them, so he was going to eat one. Meri said she didn't know if bugs were halal, but we decided they were.

The crickets were tasty. If you could get past the whole bug thing then it was just a crunchy, salty treat.

Mattie was not getting past the bug thing. She did participate in all the artsy things, though.

Scary Birthday Party

I know I haven't actually written anything for the blog lately. Well, that is just how it goes, folks. All you get are pictures of the kid. Here we are at the cousins scary birthday party.

This is the Abby half of his twin cousins. It's hard to find them together at a party. They are both great socialites.

Mom with the latest Maples, Isabella. I saw a friend from college at this party, and he was like, "I just met three new Maples. How fast are y'all multiplying?"

Teething

Damn you, tooth fairy. We are getting all the teething and none of the teeth.

Halloween
