Look what you find when you finally upload pictures from your camera. You find a great one of the kids and their godmother in Seattle…

J, talking to a friend of mine last week: My dad’s birthday is Friday and we are getting him underpants.

Today, outside Kung Fu, where a dying pigeon was seen floundering near the door:
Heidi (a friend of mine): Maybe the pigeon got hurt.
C (Heidi’s son): Maybe it is old and dying.
J: My mom is 37.

This kid. He keeps me on my toes. Maybe I need to pay better attention to him. Especially when he is being really, really quite like he was tonight. I walked into the kitchen to find this:


Those are oats. An entire can of them. (You know, those big, tall, family size ones.) He’s singing Happy Birthday. And making a cake.

And let me just say, for the record, that as much as I felt like I should admonish him for this, he was a) really, really cute, b) totally occupied and therefore c) staying out of any other sort of trouble that he can cause in a flash. Hence, the video.

longest. day. ever.

The highlight was when Z peed on all the books on the bottom of the bookshelf…


Thank goodness for Mr. D who came home and whisked the kids out to get burgers so I could have an hour of quiet. That man. He’s great.

We were staying with some friends last week on our Big Northwest Vacay, and they had this awesome old school rotary phone that actually works. Z took it off the hook, and here’s how the conversation went:
Me: A, can you hang the phone up, please?
A: How do you hang it up?


I totally want to get one of these now!
