tired and outlets

I knew they were tired today.  They kept playing bedtime and nap time.  Emma fell asleep while she was playing.

Don't touch outlets!

Josiah touched an outlet today and got in trouble.  Emma overheard me telling him how dangerous it was and decided to make the most of the teachable moment with this statement to him: "Yes Josiah.  That isn't safe.  It could kill you.  Daddy would come home from work and ask where you were and we would have to say dead."  Is that normal?

Emma took her new bike out for a spin.  She had a perma-grin all evening.

Bloody tissue from first bike injury.

I will ride my John Deere down the slide.

I will hold Jerry and suck my NUK when it's not bedtime.

I will make a few new friends at the park.

I will wait for her to come home.

make a wish

The annual birthday picture.  

This morning I commented to Clinton that her hair was finally starting to look decent.

She must have been thinking the opposite.  Twenty minutes later I looked at her and half of her hair was gone.  Her bangs are SHORT, almost the whole right side of hair is missing and the back is almost even with her ears.  Her eyelashes are longer than some of the hair on her head!

Make a wish.

I wish I wouldn't have cut my hair.

I wish my hair wasn't ugly.

I wish I would have cut Josiah's.

happy birthday emma

S H E ' S   F O U R !

Our conversation this morning: "When I'm four I can cross the street by myself and probably use your computer.  Would that be OK Mommy?  And when I'm seven, or eight, or nine I can probably drive a car.  What size do I wear now?  When I''m five, Josiah will be three. Is today my real birthday?"

first day of school

It was Emma's first day of preschool today.    She's been looking forward to it now for about 12 months so she was more than ready.  On the way to school she said, "Oh shoot, we forgot my calculator."  :)

She had a great time.  They only tears came from Josiah when we dropped her off.  He was crying "Emmy" as we left the school. :)

practicing gymnastics

Emma starts gymnastics tonight and wanted to do a little practicing before class.
