My Eyes! The Goggles Do Nothing!


Me: Good morning!
D: There's something that hurts in my eyes.
J: It hurts my eyes too.

D: Mom, that's where you get a Toyota!
Me: Oh. And what kind of car can you get there?
D: Uhm, Chevy.
Me: What kind of truck do we drive?
J: A monster truck!
Me: What kind of car can we get there?
D: A van! (technically right since we owned a Hyundai minivan at one point)
Me: And how about there?
D: A SUV! (again right, as our rental was a GMC)

Me: What do you want for lunch? And you can't just have chips.
D: I need a piece of cake at my grandma's that I made because that's my favorite.
Me: Cake will be for later. What do you want for lunch now?
D: Crackers. This chip is just a snack.

D: We need to share the cake, not eat it.

Me: Holy cow...
D: I want to see the cow!

Me: We're going to go to Grandma's house to celebrate her birthday.
J: Uhm... how about cake!
D: And we need to sing a song kinda like Happy Birthday!

D (hands me my glass): Mom, you just have to put wine in it.
I'm not sure how I should feel about this.  

Teacher: D, do you have a song for us?
D: Yeah, I want Beymax and Save Self!  (Immortals & Save Yourself respectively)



(2/3) Day off for me, and my workday in the twins' classroom.  J spent playtime climbing to the top of the slide and yelling, "BANANA!!!" Why yes, we did just watch Minions. How'd you guess?


(2/4) So the truck isn't completely done and needed to go back in this morning, but the rental car agency didn't have anything that would hold the boys' car seats, so Dad had to keep the truck and it will need to go back in at some point.  Day 78, and we're still not done.  Blarg.   


(2/5) Work day from home for me, and Dad had the kiddos. The twinsies got to go to public skate with their coach today.  J had some really great moments, and D sat on the bench a lot.  We later had to replace D's beloved red boots with some new ones since he had busted a hole in them.  He's pretty proud of his new, black boots.  Tonight was Family Night at the twins' preschool.  They were up way past their bedtime and were a bit cuckoo, but weren't alone in that regard.  


(2/6)  Hockey day for the boys today.  C's game was in town, so he didn't have to get up as early.  He still isn't a morning child, and doesn't play his best when things happen early.  J had a great practice!  He managed to skate a few feet without holding on to anything.  He's making huge progress!  D is taking more time, but this is typical.  He doesn't like to do things until he's sure, and then does them all at once.  C got to go to a friend's house tonight and they had a great time.  


(2/7) The littles and I had a mostly lazy day today and didn't really get going until afternoon.  We headed over to Grandma's house to (not) watch the Super Bowl and celebrate her birthday. I had a great time visiting with my fam and ignoring the game.  


(2/8) Busy day on tap ~ school, work, & hockey.  Happy Monday!
