Armed and Dangerous

At some point Grandma Sandi lost her head and while standing in Dollarama thought to herself you know I think it would be fun if I bought Abby a * long range* squirt gun. The question that begs asking is of course, fun for who? Because it's certainly not fun for me to be on the receiving end of a blast of water while I'm minding my own business reading a book or hanging laundry on the line. Then Grandma Sandi had an even better idea that Abby should have her *long range* squirt gun in the pool. That way she can reload quickly and easily. That's also the reason that I now watch her swim from the neighbour's yard with a set of high powered binocs.



I do have one very funny squirt gun story and it's funny because it didn't happen to me. Before the genius idea of letting Abby have the squirt gun in the pool she would have to wait for Michael or I to fill the gun at the kitchen sink for her. Michael was being rather annoying one evening, so for revenge I loaded Abby's gun up with water and set her loose on him. The girl is all business with the squirt gun, I tell ya. She aims for the face and is deadly accurate. She blasted through the water pretty quickly and demanded a refill. I thought Mike had more than paid the price of his transgressions so I told her we were all done with the squirt gun for the night. Apparently Abby didn't agree. The minute our backs were turned she slipped inside the house and filled gun up herself. Before we knew it she had snuck up behind us and blasted a shot right into the small of Mike's back that sent him about 5 feet off the ground with a girly scream to boot.

All because little Miss Abby had filled her trusty squirt gun up at the water cooler. Can you say cold?

I'll close with a picture of the cutest baby ever.
