He's Two and She's Four, and you know they adore you

That's the only part of the song that applies: "I can give you two reasons to show you love's not blind, He's two and she's four and you know they adore you..." The rest most definately does not apply! (For those of you who don't know the Dixie Chicks song, its about a guy who leaves his family for another woman...)

ANYWAY, E just turned 2 on Wednesday, and he's not hiding it at all! He is getting so big, and learning so fast! Potty training is still in progress, but going well. More words are working thier way out every day! Trucks and cars are still his love...I'm not exaggerating. And thank you everyone for his great gifts! He got everything I could think he could possibly ask for...cars, trucks, tractors, (noise-making, the whole lot), hats, sunglasses, shoes, train & track! You guys are great, THANK YOU! Pics are to come later - don't miss 'em!

And for those of you who were at his party, I would like to mention he is no longer afraid of the wheelie poppin' car! - thank you Grandma Gauthier (really, he loves it)- For that matter, I don't really believe he was afraid of it, I think it made him mad that it got away from him! (for those of you not there - it drives away after pushing a button, and pops a wheelie!) He loves it even more now that he figured out, with someone on the other end, it will come back to him. Still does NOT want to share it.

Dear Kathchen, I love your blog and all but I think maybe you should disable the link to Craving Chronicles until certain persons among us are not dieting ;)

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Clearance Puppy

This has been a really crazy weekend. Thursday J got a call from a breeder he had been speaking to 3 or 4 months ago. We were going to go look at a puppy of his (with no real intention of buying) back then, but when we called the breeder said he just sold the last female 2 hours previously. Then on thursday he called to tell J that a buyer backed out last minute and J has first chance at getting her, so Friday we went to see her. She was discounted for us (and b/c she is older now, I think) and much more affordable - and so we brought her home, and her name is Sugar. Sug (shoog) for short. She is very sweet and calm, and listens really well. She is a yellow lab, and for all of you who have read the book or watched the movie - yes, we bought the "clearance puppy"! And actually we stopped at Blockbuster to return some movies and a big Marley & Me poster was in the window and M said :"Is that a picture of Sugar?" - I hope not! Saturday was the last 50 cen...

End of the week

This week has been lots of fun. J's mom, step-dad, sister and nephew all came to stay with us for the week. We've had a lot of fun visiting, playing games, and swimming. I'm so glad they came to visit us, aaallll the way from Idaho! We're lucky they had the time and all came! They are leaving in the morning because his step-dad has to work sunday afternoon! Crazy wonderful people. On another note, tomorrow J and I will have been married 3 years. I can hardly believe it's been three years....absolutely wonderful. I have never made a better decision in my life!
