Out of the mouths of our babes...

Greta is taking Spanish, Barrett was testing her knowledge...
Greta: "I'm a Spanish girl."
Barrett: "Oh yeah, how do you say 'letter' in Spanish?"
Greta: (devilish look on her face, eyes go side to side) "I don't know, Gringo."

Barrett Lately

Okay, I know he's MY kid, but I just have to say... This child is such a delight to be around. He is so kind, especially to his sister. When he hears her fuss, he rushes to her and says, "It's okay, Greta. I'm here. You okay, Greta?" It works too, he really calms her down (when he's not getting her all riled up, that is!) Granted, he is almost 3, so there is the inevitable tantrum from time to time, particularly as he is starting to outgrow his daily nap (now maybe every 3rd day he'll actually sleep during naptime), but all in all- this boy is a gem. I'm so proud to be his Mama. (can you tell??)


Pretty scary, eh?? You can't really tell in the photo, but here Barrett is sitting on his brand spankin' new "big boy" bed. Barrett is in a pre-school for two mornings a week now, and he just got moved up to the potty-trained class. He really is turning into a big boy. My toddler is becoming a full fledged kid!


I know he remembers last winter, but this first snowfall of the season had him wide-eyed and amazed.


How am I supposed to resist this face??? Whatever you want kiddo, it's yours with that smile!
