This: I had a thought last night. When Colin was first learning to talk he called all berries boobahdees. Eventually he only associated that term with blueberries and finally he used the term boobahdee fuffin quite frequently. It was definitely the cutest thing he said consistently during the earlier stages of talking. I love it so much that I often use it as an endearment for both him and Hannah. So, I’m curious, would I be a bad mom if I specifically taught Hannah to say this instead of blueberry muffin when she first starts learning? I guess she will come out with something adorable of her own.
That: Matt will kill me, but I had to tell this story. He was sitting in the oversized chair with his feet up and Hannah sort of beneath him asleep on the bouncy. He farted, quite loudly, and startled the crap out of Hannah. So bad I don’t think she would have gotten back to sleep even if I hadn’t taken her to get her diaper changed and get ready for actual bed time. It was REALLY funny, poor girl being awoken by her daddy’s gas.
Finally, some pictures. The kiddos helped me cook lasagna last night. It was tasty even with the veggies I put in. I do recommend adding a layer of butternut squash to your next lasagna.

Not a bad mom, but let Hannah be her own woman and come up “with something adorable of her own”.
Love the expressions and body language in the picture on the left! Perhaps these two are discussing if their mom has been reading Desceptively Delicious: Simple secrets to get your kids to eat good foods by Jessica Seinfeld (a book that Michelle had on her Christmas List).
Be gentle with Deb, Matthew. You opened up yourself to this one.
