No shirt - No problem

This morning at the last minute, I decided to iron my shirt. I grabbed the mini board and the iron and just put it on the dining room table took off my shirt and ironed it real quick. Charlie was asking me what I was doing (since I don't think he's EVER witnessed anyone ironing in our house). I explained that I was getting wrinkles out, etc.

I told him I better get my shirt back on because I had to get to the train and asked him what he thought people would say if I forgot to put it back on (sometimes he doesn't want to wear pants and "cover up his underware" so we have this conversation a lot about no shirt, no pants, no service).

He said "I think people would say, 'Look at that beautiful girl!'"

Brett was proud and could forget the fact that Charlie also loves to put on makeup and carry a purse!

Frankfurt

This weekend when Charlie asked where Katie was, I told him she was in Frankfurt.

"To get Grandpa?" he asked
"No, she went on a trip with Uncle Mike."
"To get a baby?"
"No, just to go on a trip."

Screw in the head?

As we sat at Chilli's for our normal Monday lunch with Brett, we had a new waiter. This waiter happened to have a piercing in his eyebrow - a rod. As the guy is taking our order, Charlie says, "Mommy, why does that guy have a screw in his head?"

Janie is growing up

Over the weekend, Janie got two more teeth. Hopefully, that is the explanation for her need to put everything in her mouth - I mean everything: food crumbs, rocks, her walker, the sidewalk. I'm banking on curiosity and hoping it's not Pica. :-)

She has also learned how to stand up on her own from a sitting position, she walks with the walker and totally rocks out to music. It's all very fun to watch.
