This month was a little light on kid-related posts, but there were some classic "Cal-isms." I couldn't help but include the "Greenie" post from the 1st. My favorite has to be the "mermaid" post from the 23rd (though the "counting" one from the 16th is a close second).

was just reminded why she likes Greenie of Mike and Mike so much - he believes that text messages are not exempt from proper grammar and punctuation... Exactly!

has been informed by Cal that he is sucking his thumb "to stop his hiccups." Apparently, he told Dan in the car the other day that he was sucking his thumb because "the wind blew it into his mouth." Goodness. We're screwed.

Had a nice run with Cal... and Monkey... and Camel... and Koala Bear (fka Puppy)... and Goat just now. Here they are enjoying some post-run fruit snacks:

| No Tackle Sign |

The short of the story behind this "sign" is that I asked Cal not to tackle Ella too hard earlier this evening; for the full version of the story, check out my blog later this week.

Cal and I made a model of our house and cars out of Play Dough this past weekend.

got this response when I asked Cal if I could crawl into bed with him tonight: "Are you kidding me?!?!! You're TOO BIG."

loves how Cal counts backwards by 10 from 90: "Ninety, Eighty, Seventy, Sixty, Fivety, Fourty, Threety, Twoty, Onety, Zeroty."

was happy to hear Ella say, "no thumb, Cal" just now. Maybe a little peer pressure from his little sister will get him to stop sucking that thumb.

had this little convo about mermaids earlier this AM:
Cal: "A mermaid has fish legs and breast-es."
Me <taking it probably where it needn't go>: "And what are breasts?"
Cal: "Breast-es... big girls have breast-es to hold milk for the babies in their tummys and they have big nickels."
Kids are so fun.

has another Irish fan on her hands -- Dan, pointing to the ND logo on his pullover, asked Ella if she knew what it was. Her response? "Dame... go Irish!"

was on the receiving end of an unsolicited "ti to, Mama" just now as she handed Ella a cup of apple juice. Love her!
