the last bit of baby, captured forever

i love when kids say a word all wrong--it's so damn cute. niek has lately been very much into calling everything "disgusting," except he says "gusgusting" very dramatically. avisa was playing in the dirt and getting her feet dirty and niek said "EWWWWWWW THAT'S GUSGUSTING!"
and artin calls an ambulance "ambliance." it's hilarious, especially if you imagine a very serious little boy saying it.

but my favorite by far is artin saying "galapsy." as in...super mario galapsy. we've managed to capture that just in time. artin started saying it correctly after a friend at school told him it was gal-ICK-sy. NOT gal-UP-sy.


the rest of the picture is all kinds of lines and circles depicting the many galapsies, but here you see mario and the princess (illustrated by the sparklies) chillin' on the home galapsy. deep man, deep.
