Fire station

We baked cupcakes for the local fire fighters and dropped them off at the station. In return we got to meet the crew, see the trucks, and hightail it out of there when they got a call. Great afternoon. Allen loved the "tucks".

Mine

This is my son.
Drinking my milkshake.
And he wouldn't give it back.

Fine dining

Here is Allen's preferred method for eating breakfast.
1. Spill cereal onto dirty carpet
2. Bend over, eat cereal directly off floor without using his hands.
I call this "vacuum style"

No empty threat

Listen mom-lady, I know you want me to eat healthier snacks, but if you take these veggie straws away from me, I will cut you.

Role play

Lola: let's play "mommy and baby". I'll be the mommy and Baby Rosie (her baby doll) will be the baby and you'll be the big sister.

Me: what about Allen?

Lola: he can be the PetSmart worker.

Patience

The truest test of keeping patience is sitting quietly while my 4 year old attempts to dress herself.
