Today just 25 minutes ago I heard a yell -not a little scream but a grown man freak out yell - it was brief then was followed by a baby cry -loud one.I was like 'Its not even 9:00 yet whats with all the yelping?' then (since I have super senses) I realized that Kevin was hurt.I ran down the hall to see a lonely hat in the hall way and Kev said a SCORPION bit him on the head -it was IN his hat! The baby was crawlin' around his feet while he was brushing his teeth and putting the finishing touches on his outfit (i.e. the hat). I scooped up the baby and put her in her jail(crib) and that was as bad as a scorpion bite to her. Kev' wants me to write that he was very brave and then took the 'baseball cap of danger' outside with the evil scorpion in it to meet its maker. Kevin is fine and so is baby Sloan and I doubt that this experience will deter him from head coverings but it may make him check inside before donning it.Monday, June 2, 2008

i'm sad for k, but i have to say i'm a little jealous as well. in all my az years, i never once ran into a scorpion.
Will you ever give me a moment's peace what with the police and the scorpions and the ... whatever is next.
Sheeesh!
That sounds scary to me!!! I don't blame Kev for the girlish screams!!
ditto Mary....love you guys
NO WAY! That's horrible. I never saw a scorpion until we moved into our new house. We used to have about one a month... until we got a good bug guy... and we haven't seen any now for 6 months. I hear they come back in the summer... so I'm keeping my eyes peeled. I'll remind my fam to CHECK THE HATS!
yikes. i shake out my shoes everytime i put them on. if i wore hats, i guess i would shake them out now, too. i HATE scorpions.
We haven't seen any scorpions since moving up here. We did have a young moose chasing joggers on the running trail by our house though. Watch out for those creepie crawlies!
The only scorpions I have ever seen are those ones frozen in lollipops that, for some reason, are sold at every gas station in Phoenix. I'm glad K's head survived.
