Fishing

We went fishing on Mother's Day.  We passed a kind gentleman who asked Fin if he was going fishing.  Fin held up his pole and said, "Yeah!"  "Well, good luck," said the man.  "Thanks!" said Fin, "I already caught an octopus!"

Later that day, Fin asked me to sing the "sunshine" song.  I sang You Are My Sunshine and when I finished, Fin patted me on the shoulder and said, "Mommy, I will never take your sunshine away."  LOVE HIM!!!

Dandelion stains

When I went to get Clara up from her nap yesterday, I noticed she had brown stains on her shirt, arms, and legs.  I smelled the spots but they smelled fine.  I asked her what the spots were.  "Poop!" she replied.  "Clara, it's not poop.  What is it?"  "Poop!" she answered again.  Trying another tack, I said, "Where did it come from?"  She looked me square in the eye and answered, "My bum!"  (I later figured out the stains were from dandelion stems that she'd smuggled into her crib).

Yogurt overload?

We were relaxing outside and Fin was laying with his head resting on Dru's abdomen.  Suddenly he sat up, patted Dru's belly, and said, "Daddy, you have a big belly.  Did you eat a lot of yogurt to get your belly so big?"
