Stuff On My Brother

It started when Ellis was just a week old. Clearly taking a cue from this website, Owen began to unceremoniously deposit random objects on Ellis' head and then walk away. It is a bit passive aggressive, a bit artistic and a whole lot of funny.


The first Objet d'Art was plopped on Ellis' head while he was nursing. It was a rat....a creature that sneaks in when no one is looking, poops all over the place and eats copious amounts of food. Subtle, Owen. Real subtle.


A tiny turtle followed suit.
Broken slinky.

A hoop from Ellis' Fisher Price Rainforest Mat. If they ever remake the film version of Clockwork Orange, I think Ellis could easily play the role of Alex. He rocks a monocle.

Fisher Price Rainforest Mat strikes again with a detachable leaf.

A baby wipe on the head was the last straw for poor Ellis. He decided to make amazing developmental strides and quickly learned to grab, aim and throw...

Owen never knew what hit him...thankfully, it was just a hypoallergenic wipe.

The leaf-hat is adorable on Ellis! He has a future as a hat model - that face, those eyes!
