Conversation with an almost 3 year old….


Mommy: “Luke, you have to start thinking about what you want for Christmas”
Luke: “Christmas?”
Mommy: “Yeah buddy, remember, we put up Christmas decorations and a Christmas tree and if you are a good boy, Santa comes and brings you presents”
Luke: “and reindeer and snowman decorations”
Mommy” Yes buddy, that’s right! So what do you think you would want Santa to bring you this year”
Luke “Pancakes”
Mommy: “You want Pancakes?”
Luke: “yeah”
Mommy: “Ok, we’ll see what we can do about that, what else would you want, what toys”
Luke: “pancakes”
Mommy: “Yes, honey, we’ll tell him to bring you pancakes but he also brings toys. What toys do you want?”
Luke: (playing with a orange matchbox car) “I want Santa to bring me an orange car”
Mommy: (Getting nowhere, hands Luke a toy catalog) “Look at the toys in here, what do you think you would want Santa to bring you”
Luke: (looks for a while and finally points to something) “I want this one Mommy”
Mommy: (Excited that they are finally getting somewhere here, looks at what he picked) “Oh, buddy, you already have that train table, remember Santa brought it for you last year”
Luke: (Very excited and proud of himself for picking it out!) “YEAH MOMMY!”

Happy Halloweeeeeennnnnn…

We had a great Halloween. We went to a party, on the next street over with all the neighborhood families. From there we left, a pack of kids, parents, wagons and wheeling beer carts. We quickly learned, as this was our first Halloween, that things get CRAZY in our neighborhood. I looked down the street at some points and it was just a huge mass of kids and parents.

Luke the Dinosaur and Paige the Pumpkin did great! Luke was LOVIN’ the trick or treating as Paige just strolled along in the wagon until she got too tired to sit upright.

Vanilla Ice Ice Baby....


All ready to go to the party...


Mommy the Witch and Lukie the Dinosaur - an odd couple but it worked...


Where is the green dinosaur, somewhere in the sea of kids...
