Dissection

This is what happened to our first pumpkins of the season. Turned out I was smarter than I thought because I got the small ones. Let's hope the real ones we get with Auntie Sarah and Uncle Pauly next weekend fair much better...

Husbands. Ever want to throw yours in the river? I have. They can be the most frustrating creatures on earth as well as the funniest, most loving, best smelling things around. My hubby and I are celebrating 6 years of betrothal this weekend. We get almost 18 hours of no-kid relaxation. We're heading dowtown for an overnight, complete with wining(the beverage kind), dining and The Social Network.

6 years, I think we've earned a nice Merlot, mindless entertainment and sleeping in till 9. MAWTH!

IA-isms

Always fairly verbal, IA has grown even more so recently. There are two things she says that are worth a post...

1. The way she says her brother's name - "Wee-yum". Sigh. Love it.

2. "Mommy, no tak-a mean". She has taken to saying this when you talk at elevated volumes. Like the other day when I raised my voice to tell her "No!" as she was reaching for a knife.

Now, her brother flat out yelled at her after she snatched his toy and I got to hear the motherload sentence..."Wee-yum, no tak-a mean!".

'Nuff said.
