thankful friday

you can tell by the flowers, i've been to costco again.

my days are divided into two days it seems, when these two are with me and then when it's three. WHOLE different dynamic.

he slipped on the ice last week. he won't say "you should see the other guy".

ever since we've revisited Leapfrog's Letter Factory B's been asking for a tiny, personal chalkboard; he was actually thinking pocket sized. coincidently i saw this neat idea (name acrylic painted on) online.

im still thankful for my mom's lemon chicken from monday. it was the same as i remembered. she took chinese cooking classes when i was in grade school, we got chinesed food out then.

perception. i get us tulips, he has more wood delivered.

ive been the hard one on aiden lately and this morning it seemed he remembered, although i know he'll need more reminders.

grandma had him shell peanuts for her pistacho crusted chicken last week. he asked to shell them for me. very methodically too. three bowls. for shells, couldn't be opened and about to be eaten.

the word peanuts makes me giggle because it's what A&B call theirs. ive corrected them on the pronunciation many, many times. meanwhile colin properly identified his yesterday "Peee niSSS".

colin's been sleeping until 8:30am all this week, woohoo!

the time of day when everyone's "starving to death!" and tired.
