50 mm, hair, and spiders.

after much research, josh and i decided to get a new lens for my camera. here she is:

she is small and simple. the way i like things. here are the first photos taken with her:

i was messing around with photo shop and we decided to see what j would look like with more hair...

haha, i like him better the way he is.

speaking of josh, you have to read this...

he woke me up last night freaking out because there was something in his ear. i couldn't help but laugh as i crawled out of bed to turn on the light and look in his ear. after looking and not seeing anything, i laughed some more.
he was sure there was something there and wanted to go to the ER to get it out. hahaha. josh wanting to go the the ER because his ear was itching?
well i decided i would squirt some water in to help... and guess what?!

there was totally a spider in his EAR!!!!!!!

ah, why does the whole insect population love our house, especially the eight legged ones?!
seriously it was no bueno, my laughing stopped, josh fell back to sleep and thousands of hypotheticals entered my mind:

what if it bit him?
what if it got through the membrane... that tube leads straight to the internal auditory meatus which is a tunnel that his vestibulocochlear cranial nerve runs through.. that could mess with not only his hearing but his balance...

my nursing mind kept me awake for hours thinking, and watching and touching j to make sure he was still alive... haha

anyways we woke up this morning and he felt one hundred percent fine.

i will forever sleep with my head under the covers.
