In keeping with my insect theme...

So, last night I was putting Garrett to bed and his room felt a little warm, so I decided to open his window a bit.  As I was opening his window, I was hit with the nasty stench of stink bugs and about 20 of them flying into my face and hair. Then I proceeded to scream like a lunatic as they were all flying around the room while Rich was trying to catch them and Garrett was laughing hysterically in his crib!

Apparently the window screen was open a bit and a bajillion stink bugs were just hanging out between the window and screen.  His room is in the back of the house, and his curtains have pretty much been closed all winter, so we never noticed.

Between the ticks and the stink bugs, I am so over bugs!  It's going to be a long summer, haha!

  • I am sorry but the picture of that made me laugh, my co-workers probably think I am nuts.

    To make you feel a bit better. One night I wake up to my husband flailing around our bedroom like a maniac. Here, a stink bug landed on his foot and he

  • I would have reacted the same way. Those stupid bugs are terrible flyers and it terrifies me that I can't predict where they will land.

    Eleni once laughed at my reaction of a house centipede running across my kitchen counter.  And now s

  • Ugh, that's too gross!  We had a HUGE stink bug problem at our old house.  I am thankful that it doesn't seem to bad at this house. 
     
  • I got dive bombed by one in my office the other day.  I would have gagged if there were 20! 

    Sorry!
