Overheard

“Lookat this, guys” by far the favorite expression these days
“I want bessert” anything chocolate will do
“Uh, ’scuse me, is this my fork?” this is just too funny to hear out of the mouth of a two year-old
“Those boys are playing football” wonder where she saw that this time of year?
“I want some Chinese noodles”
“Aw shuck” a favorite line from The Runaway Bunny
“Sing that song, Mommy” any song will do, really

The plan is still to take the whole tribe out to the woods sometime this fall, although this weekend turned rainy and cold on us. I think Lindsay and Gracie would both have a blast, and it would be even better if some of our friends with little ones could come with us, even if only for a few hours. We’re eager to give Lindsay a camping experience, just to plant the seed in her active little mind, so that hopefully we can do lots more of that as she grows up. It’s so nice to get away from the house, the toys, and the tv for a while, and I think she’d have a total blast.
