It's the pink-house thing that's really got me.

Love that picture of your boy pretending to be "very busy". ;)

Oma and Opa, wow! We say that here in the Netherlands, but I didn't know it was German as well.

Gotta run now, busy busy busy! Hehehe

How funny. Nice to know they're on top of the phone though. Just in case you can't hear it ringing yourself. I'd like a pink house :)

Kids are so funny. Katie, who is almost 4, always ends her calls with IGOTTAGOBYE. Really fast and loud. And anything can be a pfone in this house too. The worst is she now ANSWERS the phone. I don't always want the phone answered!

I love how kids pick up on little things like that. My daughter has started saying, "well, whattaya gonna do?" complete with resigned shoulder shrug.

Wow - you have a book signed to Angela Davis?!!! And it came to you somewhat randomly. Very cool.

So do you think the boys *think* they're saying something else when they say "So you build me the pink house"?

It's funny hearing what your boys are up to. They are gonna have a wry sense of humor just like their mom!

wait a sec...hold the phone! I mean to say they already seem to have a wry sense of humor....

I so love when kids use adult phrases (and not *those* adult phrases). I think I know what your secret project is, as Libby is doing something big as well...can't wait to see what you've done!

I thought of you this weekend too, when I was watching GSN they had a little thing on GenCon (that's the show that you went to a couple weeks ago right?)- I know you watch GSN, so hopefully you saw it!

your boys are so funny. it's always interesting to see what kids are going to pick up on. when my nephew was 2-ish, 3-ish, his favorite saying was, "what, were you raised in a barn?" which was something he overheard. he didn't say it himself, he would leave doors open and then look at you expectantly. you were then expected to say, "what, were you raised in a barn?", and then he'd giggle, slap his forehead (like, 'oh yeah, i forgot') and then close the open door.

incidentally, i've been trying to reply to an email you sent me. did you get it?

Aren't kids hilarious at this age?
Jesse is really into chatting on "phones" too. He calls all his friends and you hear these little giggles as if they are telling him funny things.

I was listening to Jesse play this morning and realised how much I have a smile on face these days....and all due to him.
