The Itsy Bitsy

With new apartments come new surprises. We've had quite a few surprises these days. What are these surprises you ask? Let me give you a few clues:
They range from small to large
They are sneaky
They sometimes travel in packs
Here is the give away: They have 8 legs.

Spiders. They are all over. It is rather surprising how many we've found. Here are the top stories:

We were decorating our baby's room with glow in the dark stickers when Jameson asks me for a tissue. I ask why and if he saw a spider. He just said to get a tissue. So, I ran out and grabbed a tissue demanding to know what is up! He simply said "Lots of spiders". I look up and there are tons of baby translucent spiders crawling on the ceiling, dangling down on little webs. EEEEWWWWWW!

Jameson's personal favorite:
I was in the bathroom, he was sitting on the couch. Suddenly he hears me yell from the bathroom: OH MY GOODNESS! It is huge! ... Jameson!.... Come here! .... BRING A SHOE! IT IS COMING AT ME!
Now, to the untrained ear, you'll giggle at the first two sentences I got out. But from me, I was sitting in the bathroom I looked over at the door and a big brown spider is perched on the floor board! It starts to crawl down the door and at me! I needed to be safe. Jameson comes in looking around my feet for it... But it was still by the door. But trust me, it was a killer.

Those are the best two. But if you want more, there is a good Black Widow story about our neighbors and couch crawlers in our apartment. Etc Etc

  1. Becky is a sissy? Says who? I hate loathe and despise spiders-that is why I trained Bonnie to kill them as a very young child-"0h Look Bonnie! A cool spider! Step on it!" Splat! Spiders still run when they hear her coming
