creepy/croupy

i sometimes wonder if our home looks a little creepy with all the limbs and torsos laying about:

(these are 3 custom dolls which are burning a hole in my to-do list)

then there is this guy, with his cherry-cheeked smile, who seems to be insisting on finishing off his first year with a decent (persistant!) bout of croup :(

(don't tell anyone but his older brother sucked the remaining precious millilitre of Redipred we had set aside for tonight out of the syringe on the bench earlier this afternoon!! thankfully it was only 1ml and that he's had croup for the last few nights as well! oh boy~)
