We were changing Meg's diaper, when we saw this outside her window (it's a bit big, apologies):

What do ya'll think?
I mean, they're just Daddy Longlegs, but still...*shudders*

We think they're planning a house invasion.

"Ralph, get your darn leg(s) out of my eye!!"
"It's not mine, Sue, it's Charlie's.."

"Hey!!! I'm not into that sort of thing! I consider it an exit..."
"Oh, sorry, I thought you were Molly."
"Molly's over there, with Glinda and Peter."

"OOoooh, ooohh, I never knew you could do that with your legs...oooh, oooh!!!"

*whispers* "Shelly, did you know that Barry was a minute man? I am surprised! Look, he''s already leaving!"

Somebody told me that Daddy Long Legs were the most poisonous spiders in the world but we are not in danger because their teeth cannot penetrate our skin. I don't like that name: Daddy Long Legs, what is that?, it bothers me.
It really does bother me, I just put the laughing smilie there because it sounded funny when I read it, but the name does bother me.

I don't know about how poisonous they are.. but I know they eat other spiders. They're not so bad to have around if you want to rid yourself of the REALLY creepy ones.

You know I heard that they were the most poisonous of all spiders to, but they couldn't penetrate out skin. And to think I used to hold them...

hmm is right, Prox. So they're just cuddling and that's apparently normal. And they're not poisenous, nor are they aggressive.

So, that's not the worst thing you could find outside your daughters window. Personally, I wouldn't like it myself, though...regardless.

I'd go spray them, and the window, with RAID...just cuz...that's my kiddo's room, and nobody invited them.

but that's just me

Ugh, spiders. I have always had a huge fear of them since childhood, especially daddy long legs. It got to the point where I occasionally have nightmares still. If I saw those outside a window, I don't know what I would do. I wouldn't take a picture of it though!
