Seriously, my husband is a full fledged weirdo.
A couple weeks ago, he rushed home early from work with a stick bug in a box.
Today, he brought home a praying mantis.
Evidently, he found this outside of his office again. I’m not sure how this happens – is he out there crawling around on the ground in search of a praying mantis? Dude, bugs don’t pay the bills.
But wouldn’t it be nice if they did?
Of course, the kids were thrilled, and by kids I mean my son and his daddy.
If the husband brings home a millipede next, I’m OUT.

Thanks Lindsey – I wish I knew how to use my damn camera!!
OMG this is awesome. I love the one of the bug on your sons head. Me I wouldn’t go near that bug with a 10 foot pole-EESH!
This kid used to be afraid of his own shadow, so it’s fun to see how excited he was today! Thanks CL!!
Oh…how fun! Weirdo he may be, but how many kid’s dads bring home the “cool” stuff?
We had a whole family of mantis’s that lived in our lilies for a few summers. Really cool creatures to watch

At one point when I was trying to take a pic of it close up, it jumped towards the camera.Let’s just say I freaked out. It provided much comedic effect for my husband.
my kids wanna know what he is praying about? LOL

Thanks Deborah!! He keeps surprising me with how gutsy he’s getting as he grows up!
I would have DIED if my husband brought that home. Every time i even seen the words Praying Mantis I think of an old episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and I get all creeped out.
I guess an upside to having a girl is that my husband doesn’t think she would be interested in bugs!

Love the pictures! My kids love bugs…We’ve been looking for a praying mantis all summer… So far the best we’ve found is a walking stick -
