Words of the day

he put on his sunglasses and said, "handsome!" (handthum)
he found dave's chainsaw in the garage, and clear as a bell, exclaimed, "chainsaw!"

i made the mistake of screaming when i was surprised by a pincher bug in the dish i was washing-- so for the next ten minutes i had to explain that mommy was wrong for screaming, and that screaming is not acceptable. . . something we've been trying to teach him all week. oops!

he picked up my phone and pretended to talk to Poppy (this is an everyday occurance)... usually he says, "Poppy!.... Mumba..." b/c when he hands me the phone, i always say, "hi, Poppy, how's the mumba?" lately, i've been asking "Poppy" how the truck, loader, and motorcycle are... oh, and Gramsy. well, tonight, he thought of one on his own-- he held up the phone after i had "talked" to Poppy, and said, "chips." and at one point he made sure to add in "chainsaw".

and one more milestone: he finally made it through an entire hour of sunday school (barely). when dave went to pick him up at the end, he was crying :(
