Jack - The Master Roller

How he gets from here:





To here:



The whole process takes a few minutes, but he's addicted. He just can't not roll over when I put him down.

Abby's Unfair Tactics

Look, I'm only human. So when my four and a half year old daughter is coughing night in and night out and I've just gone in to give her tylenol and she says,

"Did you know what my problem was?" (i.e. I came in with the medicine so I knew why she was calling me)
"Yes, I'm sorry you're coughing."
"Maybe my cough happens because I'm alone." (she would prefer having a cuddle buddy with her every night - nevermind that no one with the task ever sleeps because Abby sleeps like a working windmill.)

My heart is just not that strong.

Abby - Oh No...

Funniest Abby quote of the day:

Oh no, I'm turning into a worm...

Jack - The Cuteness

Is there any way of not adoring him, he's just so dang cute?

Abby's Commercials

So we're driving to school this morning and Abby says, "Mom! I saw something." And I thought it might be a machine or a tool because we had just driven by some construction.

What did you see?
I saw something that you clean the potty with when it gets germs.
Oh (I'm thinking she saw some soap?)
Yeah, it's a lotion that you use to clean the potty or anything to get the germs off it.
Oh-
I saw it on Television.
Oh!
Yeah, and you should get some because it gets all the germs off anything like the potty or counters... but not people.
Right, no not people.
Yeah. Maybe I'll get it for you for Christmas!
OooH, yeah... thanks. (sigh)


(I vividly remember running in to tell my mom about A-L-L and thinking how revolutionary this must be for the commercial to say such wonderful things about it)

Abby's Easter Story

I want to tell you about Easter.
Some people hated Jesus so they put him on a cross.
And when he was in the cross he died.
And then THREE DAYS. Three days later he a-rose and he was alive again.
