1. I went to lunch with a dear friend of mine. We don't get together often enough so it was fun to catch up with her.
2. I bought milk. And chocolate.
I had to laugh at the comment left by Jo, who said that I should add "eat chocolate" to my list.
Dear, sweet Jo,
Reminding myself to eat chocolate would be like reminding myself to breathe.
It's something I do automatically, and I couldn't live without it.
I also say Thank You to the ladies who offered to go to lunch with me.
I'm flattered.
Name the time and place, and I'm there.
Seriously.
You have my e mail.
You know who you are.
I love this picture, I put it on Max's birth announcement which read;
Our family has grown by two feet!
Feep.
And when you take his socks off, they become...........
Behw feep.
I honestly think "feep" is the cutest word I have ever heard.
Today, Max stuck his foot in the air and said "Look Mom, My shoe ate my feep"
And in case you're wondering, the plural form of feep is;
"Feepers!"
And what do we do when we have bewh feepers?
We put "yockies" on them! And shoesies!
We have so much fun with Max's feep. He has his own version of "This little piggy" it goes;
This little piggy went to Costco,
This little piggy stayed home.
This little piggy had roast beef,
And this little piggy had a Costco hot dog,
And this little piggy went wee, wee, wee, wee, wee ,wee, wee, wee, wee, wee, wee, wee,
all the way home.
Yesterday, I bought Max a new pair of Crocs.
(O.K., not the REAL Crocks, but the imitation kind from Payless. We took advantage of the BOGO sale and got a pair for Brielle also.)
They are the brown camoflage print.
We haven't been able to see his feep all day!
(Ha ha, that joke never gets old!)
Max came up to me several times today and very lovingly said "I wuff my new cwogs"
He showed them to anyone who cared (and many who didn't)
"Wook at my new cwogs! My owd ones awe bwoken!"
Unless you didn't notice, Max sometimes replaces the letters R and L with W's.
However, sometimes, he throws us a loop by sometimes replacing an L with a D, as in
"I reedy reedy wike that!"
(translated, I really really like that)
My favorite is when he replaces the L with an R, and then claps his hands and says;
"Look Mom, I'm crapping"
That one always cracks me up.
Look at the first photo again.
Look at the pair of feet on the left. They belong to CJ.
If you think they look big in the picture, you should see them now.
CJ is currently wearing a mens size 10 1/2 .
Today, he told me his shoes are getting too small.
CJ is twelve years old.
The kid is growing 1/2" every three weeks.
He is currently 5'7".
I am 5'8".
Within two months, my baby will be taller than me.
Weird.
You know how you'll see this cute little puppy, and then you'll notice how big its paws are, and you know that this sweet little puppy will someday be a huge dog..........
Looking at the size of CJ's feet, and the rate with which he is currently growing, I'm afraid that when the growth spurt finally stops, his height may end up being................
Eight feet!
