Leaf Family Portrait {and commentary from Jonah}

Sharing is caring!

We've been having a blast at the Happy Brown House with some of our favorite Fall/Leaf books, specifically Leaf Man by Lois Ehlert. It's lead to quite a few activities--most of which you can read about over at Totally Tots today!

But because I love you, dear readers, and feel like you might need a laugh just as much as I do, I will share with this gem of a picture and the "behind-the-scenes" commentary from Jonah....

We'll call this masterpiece "Leaf Family"...if you will. Jonah's words are in bold. Mommy's words are in fancy-shmancy brackets {'cause they're pretty and all the bloggers use them}.  You'll have to excuse my commentary, it's 4:00 AM when I'm writing this, and after a sleepless night, I'm feeling a tad "testy". I've finally given up on sleep since Asher will be up to eat again soon.

Leaf Mommy (far left) has big hair. {This picture was made while I was still in my "morning-glory-still-drinking-my-first-cup-of-coffee" stage and yes, I had big hair. Fresh from the bed and sticking up all over big hair. Apparently, this is how it translates on paper.}

Leaf Jonah (second from the left) has a tiny head. {I'm not sure what this was about. I thought it was supposed to be Asher, but he informed me that wasn't the case. Maybe he's been to see the head-shrinking tribe? That would account for the manners lost since the baby came.}

Leaf Daddy (third from the left) has a pipe. It's one of those things that you put in your mouth and blow and smoke comes out. {Say what?!? Not only has he never seen a pipe or someone smoking one, but where in the world did this come from? Real Daddy doesn't smoke. This led to a "smoking is bad" conversation. We'll revisit it in the future.}

Leaf Asher (far right) has blue hair. {At this point,  that's the least of my worries!}

By the way, I got all of this conversation on video. Classic. If I wasn't technology-challenged when it came to my video camera, I would share it. Wonder if Leaf Mommy knows how to work a video camera?

Update: You can see the Leaf Family Video and all of Jonah's personal commentary. Apparently, we should blame it on Frosty.
