Actual events took place a little over a year ago:
I was upstairs doing my hair when Andrew came in the bathroom and started talking to me. Jason was downstairs feeding Alivia her breakfast. This is how the conversation between Andrew and I went:
"Mom, when I grow up, I wanna be a fireman." (Nothing new...)
"Oh, really? Well, being a fireman is a very important job, but it's also very dangerous, too."
He looked at me with big eyes in shock.
"Well, why is it dangerous?"
"Because firemen go into fires to help put them out and also to rescue people. Sometimes they get trapped in the fire and can get hurt really badly."
He stood there thinking for a minute....
"Well, I don't wanna be a fireman anymore. I think I'll just be a worker."
"Like Daddy?"
"Yes."
"Do you wanna drive an bulldozer, like Daddy?"
"Yes."
"Do you wanna wear a big yellow hardhat like Daddy?"
"Yes."
"Do you wanna be a gihungous tool, like Daddy?"
At this point, I hear Jason cracking up from downstairs. I had no idea he was even listening. Which in turn made me start laughing.
"What's a gihungous tool, anyways?"
"Well, son, go look at your father's face and you'll see just what I'm talking about"
I'm so glad I married a man who can take what I dish out. He's a special, special man. Love you, honey!!!

I am on craack, but that really is neither here nor there. Daycare is not that hard. It SOUNDS hard...but once you get a routine down, it's coo. Having a Ms. Awesome is lifesaver as well.
Twilley didn't do much for me on that last episode BUT I totally missed the his departing comments. Where was I for that!?! I should consult you before I post my "after the show" thoughts.
And I fully plan on using this post, but pressing matters leave me no choice but to wait till next week. I love the picture of Jason. Some guy ya got there!!
More prego pictures please.
I think this picture is awesome, I've got so many pictures of my husband stuffing his face but he has his eyes closed in most of them. This is so much better, I love his expression on this one.
Our five year old often acts as messenger and we send her back and for with sentances between the two of us. Usually we do it when she is bored and it makes her feel like she is serving an important task. Saturday, after running a few messages I said, "go tell daddy that mama is ready for her afternoon delight." Well, this time instead of going all the way out to daddy, she just stands on the porch and yells it to him. I glance out the window, and there he is with three of the neighbors looking at some new saw.
That picture of your husband is priceless!
