Chocolate Chips

Sometimes you give your kid a cookie at 6:45am. 

Totally worth it.

Horse

Okay, this is going to turn into a quote blog instead of a picture blog.  Toddlers are hilarious.

First, a little background.  Yesterday evening we went for a walk on Thompson Road and happened to get there as the horses were eating.  It was very exciting!

Then later at dinner, we had this exchange...

Tom:  Daniel, please stop licking your cup.  You're not a horse.
Daniel:  NEIGH!!

Touche.  Perhaps you are a horse.  Or maybe it was a pun and he was saying "nay."  We'll never know.  Either way, he won that argument. 

National Chocolate Chip Day

Me: Daniel, will you help me make some cookies?
D: Yeah! Make cookies!
Me: Great.  We're gonna use flour..
D:  Flour..
Me: Butter..
D: Butter..
Me:  Sugar..
D: Sugar........and potatoes!

Also today...

Daniel in the bath, licking the tub:  Mmm...delicious!

Why he was licking the tub?  I don't know.  Gross, but apparently delicious. 

Also today...

Daniel, as Tom walks in the door from work:  Hi Dada!  It's me, Daniel!
Daniel, as I walk in the door from rehearsal:  Hi Mama!  It's me, Daniel!

Just in case we forget I suppose...

Happy Mother's Day!!

A mother that spoils us boys!!  Here's to our Molly!  Thanks for being an awesome mother and friend!  We can't wait to bring our little girl / baby sister into the mix! 

Here's a few movies of some of the fun things we've done in the last week.  

First up...Mama Molly helps Daniel chase a butterfly at Rice Park.

And, from the Seabury Craft fair on May 12th, Molly helped Daniel ride his first horse...Brownie!!

Sunday Morning

Checking on the Dutch Baby we made for breakfast.

Quickly retreating to the couch with noise canceling headphones when we were using the food processor.  It's true our food processor is exceptionally loud, but this was pretty funny.

Baby Sister Bed

We played hooky yesterday and didn't go in to work/daycare until around 10am.  It was glorious.  Instead, we played with bubbles in our pjs!

This morning Danny showed us his exercises.

Spent some time in a park this evening, just hanging out.

And playing patty cake.

And finally, a video from a couple weeks ago when we were setting up the bassinet.  I personally love when Danny says "get out of bed" and I do not look or sound amused..

Chalk

Post nap face.

And a Monday evening sidewalk chalk session.
