I just got dissed by the London mascots on Twitter!

how, Barb?

Also, scratch my self-congratulatory previous post. Just as I posted I heard Noah yelling, "Kafrin! Kafrin!" So I walked in and there he was, perched on the rails of Grace's crib with his knee JAMMED into the rail itself. Sigh. I fail.

I mentioned that they looked like they were from the Doctor Who alien reject archives with a link to one of the pictures and got this in return:

@BarbFerrer We're convinced that you are one more clueless American! (Though we admit to being Starbucks addicts.) #mascotsFTW

Whoa. Way for them to make friends and influence people.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Oh snap!

I've never been dissed by creepy fictional one-eyed faceless penile-looking Olympic mascots.

...lucky you.

The Vancouver mascots would never have done that. They would have offered to bring Tim Horton's for everyone.

So he's picked up what you and K call each other? My mom laughed that while every other toddler was screaming some variation of Mom, her's was screaming MARCIA! Lasted for me until kinder, and then I called them mom and dad variations.

Even the one that was part killer whale!

I actually have a mcdonald's toy of one of the mascots bobsledding that we got when we went to the olympics. It's on my desk at work.

I know... I feel sort of warm and squooshy inside.

Sara, he calls both of us by first name. I've been trying to train him out of it but whatever.

Poor little bug.

I can't believe he was trying to crawl into Grace's crib. He has been throwing Fox, books, water bottles and Danny Bear in there for her for days now.
