Funny boy!

Today I picked Alex up from preschool and was doing my usual "How was your day? Who did you play with? What did you make for a craft?" thing and when I asked him what he did at recess he says "I kissed Lily. And then I patted her on the head for a while."

After a very strong attempt at stifling a guffaw I said "You kissed Lily?" He repeated "Yeah, and then I patted her on the head for a while."

Normally he does this to Andrew after Andrew has been hurt or is sad so I said "Were you trying to make her feel better? Was Lily sad?" and he says with his voice dripping with exasperation "No, Lily is a girl. Girls are always happy."

That boy is in for the surprise of his life when he gets married!

Our Abe Lincoln

I had to share the hilarious thing that Alex said today when I picked him up from preschool. Today they talked about President's Day and what it meant. They learned all about George Washington and Abe Linclon and even made an Abe Lincoln mask. When I picked Alex up he put the mask up to his face and said in a booming voice "I am Abe Lincoln, KING of all the presidents!" Out of the mouths of babes...

My Sweethearts!

The night before last, my sweethearts were too cute and I just had to share! Alex was reading to Andrew and it was adorable! He got some of the words wrong in the story which made it even funnier!

Then on Wednesday last week, Allison and I went to see Kate Gosselin from the show "Jon and Kate Plus Eight" speak. We ended up in the standing-room-only area (next to a very crazy lady that kept screaming that she couldn't hear, by the way!) but it was still pretty cool to hear her. She was signing autographs afterward but my feet hurt too much to stand in the mile long line afterward!
