I just found this video I forgot to stick in one of the Disney World posts. (Hah, "stick"! You'll get that joke later.)
It's too good to leave out, so enjoy all 23 seconds please.
Kris is quite the long suffering dad.

::Patches::
Kris is a collector. Many of you may not know this.
Kris collects patches.
Patches like the kind you might put on a scout shirt, or a backpack or something. You know what I'm talking about?
He has quite a few. Several years ago I sewed some of them onto some our camping backpacks, and I put a few on some of Kris's coats. Sewing those on was hard work. Tough on the fingers. Any of you moms that had little scouts back in the day when patches had to be sewn on know what I'm talking about.
Some of those patches I had sewed on were starting to come off I guess, so on sunday Kris broke out the collection to get some replacements and shake things up a bit.
Max thought it was pretty cool.
Kris offered to sew a cool patch on Max's denim jacket. Of course the only patch Max wanted was a "dog patch"--no dog patch to be found in the collection.
But that's ok. It took some time for them to talk the options over, but they finally decided on something.
Kris spent a lot of time sewing patches on that afternoon. He was like "this is HARD!"
And he hurt his fingers. And he stabbed himself pretty deep in one of his fingers. Poor thing!
This is a good example of a Kris concentration face. He worked hard.
He got Max's Buick patch sewed on to the jacket. Such a nice daddy, don't you think?
Max was thrilled.
So thrilled that you can't even see the patch in this picture because he's hugging it so hard.
Here's a shot of him the next day, being ultra cool eating a cookie. You can sort of see the patch there on his right shoulder.
He wouldn't take the jacket off for like three days. Then it got really dirty and I had to put it in the laundry. Hopefully the sewing job survives the wash.... we'll see!

-> Yikes <-
Does this picture scare anybody else?
It's a good dad that lets an almost four year old "use" his drill. Well I guess he's only a good dad if he doesn't let the almost four year old drill off his face, which Kris didn't.
