Easter Egg Hunt

Puzzle Chair

Alex and Grandpa were playing with the puzzle chair when Grandpa decided to build Alex into it! They are very silly. When Grandpa held up the last piece and told Alex he needed to put it in his mouth to lock the chair together... Alex told him "no, we don't put chairs in our mouth". He is already making life rules!

Rule #1 - no chairs in mouths.

How was your day?

Yesterday, as we pulled into the driveway, Alex asked me "So, Mommy, what did you do at work today?"

 

It was SO stinkin' adorable.  It's the question we ask him all the time, only about school.  So I told him that I had a very important conference call (a phone call with more than 2 people on at once), that I ordered 980 boxes for the warehouse, and helped customers buy things.  He listened very politely the whole time, as we made our way into the house and put our things in their places, then responded with an "oh, ok".  Then he was off playing with his Legos. 

 

My little boy is growing up so fast, he amazes me all the time!  

Bush. Bush. Tree.

Driving around the other day Alex said "Mommy, if we were bushes, I would be a little bush, and you would be a medium bush, and Daddy...
Daddy would be a TREE!"

It's a Happy Sock!

Otto the Elephant

We have an invisible pet baby elephant named Otto.  He followed Alex home from school yesterday.  Alex told me: "His favorite food is pizza. That is plain. Plain pizza. (cheese, that is) He can suck it up through his nose.  His nose is called a trunk." Here you can see Alex holding him up to the window so he can watch the train pass. 



There are 2 engines pushing it!



If this all sounds rather familiar, you're thinking of Goldfish the Cat.

Look at my handsome boy!

Sunshine and Chalk

There is nothing better than playing with chalk in the sun after a long nap that marks the end of a cold! Nothing.
