Adam just walked up to me and spit a small piece of plastic in to my hand. It’s an odd shape and I have no idea what it is or where he found it. I asked him where he got it from and he pointed to the inside of his mouth. Not that helpful, but technically he is correct.
The pictures have nothing to do with the story. They’re just cute.
This kid is too smart for his own good. He was playing with his alphabet puzzle earlier and I asked him to hand me the “M”. He looked at it for a minute, picked up the “W”, turned it upside down and gave it to me.
I think we’ll hold off on his MENSA application though. Just minutes later he was roaring and stomping like a dinosaur as he flung 26 puzzle pieces around the living room.
Happy Mother’s Day Mom from the first one to call you Mom and the first one to call you Grandma.
I know we’re your favorites – don’t worry I won’t tell.
Just a quick picture from our walk earlier. Adam insisted that “Hot Dog” accompany us. Yes, he refers to the big Mickey as Hot Dog (thanks to the hot dog song on the show).
Hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot Diggity Dog!! Just in case any of you needed help getting it stuck in your head.
I am so in love with this kid.
A couple of pictures from last week (back when the weather was nice enough to play outside – unlike today with our high of 44° and rain).
Not just anyone can pull that look off – and yes, it’s an “outfit” of his own creation.
Dear Adam,
When your poor mommy is hunched over the potty (because at 36 weeks pregnant she STILL has “morning” sickness) this is not an invitation for you to climb on her back and say, “yee-ha”.
Love,
Mama
28 years ago today I lost my only child status. I still haven’t gotten over it.
Happy Birthday to my favorite brother. I think you’re pretty fantastic.
I think the lady that lived in our house before us must have been one of JCPenney’s best customers. Every couple of weeks she gets a coupon from them for $10 off of a $10 or more purchase. The coupon is actually addressed to her or “current resident” – which I am more than willing to take advantage off.
Adam and I stopped in to our local Penney’s earlier with a very specific goal in mind. Well, I had a goal. He was instantly distracted by the display of stuffed animals – particularly by the Mickey Mouses (Mickey Mice?) that were almost as big as he is. He carried two of them around as I searched for the shirts and shorts for him I’d seen on the website.
They didn’t have what I was looking for or anything else I that I really thought he needed. So yes, one of those Mickeys ended up coming home with us. In my defense, it was originally $25, on sale for $16, and I had that $10 off coupon – so after tax it ended up being less than $7.50. And if that wasn’t enough of a reason – Adam is crazy about it. So crazy about it in fact that he threw a fit at Lowe’s when I made Mickey stay in the car.
He and Mickey have been inseparable all night. He even had Mickey in his car earlier and pushed him around the driveway (after he realized there wasn’t enough room for both of them to ride). I think it was money well spent.
