Girls' Day

The other day while having lunch with Katie and the kids, Mabel approached me to whisper something in my ear. She said we should have a Girls' Day. She told me she had to whisper because she didn't want the boys to hear (that would be 2-year-old Max and 3-year-old Weston). I agreed and then a few minutes later whispered something across the table to her about it. She whispered back very emphatically, "I think they heard you!" So we are planning a Girls' Day sometime before Valentine's Day so it will be a true "girls only" day and not a "girls' & newborn Sammy Day", which it will have to be if we wait much longer.

Last night when we were all out to dinner again together, I whispered across the table, "Are you ready for our 'GD'?" And she nodded very excitedly. When I asked her if she knew what "GD" meant, she cupped both hands on the side of her mouth and whispered "Girls' Day!!!!!"

Snippets

If I wait around for time to write a whole entry, I don't think it's ever going to happen. So I think I'll borrow an idea from one of my virtual friends, The Other Max Arthur's Mom, Kim. She posts cute & funny things her son Max says under the heading, "Snippets". So, with props to you, Kim, here is our first Snippet!

Max was playing with a plastic manatee from Nana and it was "talking" in his ear. We asked what the manatee was saying and he replied, "I eat ice cream.....all daaaaaaay!!!"
