HKG217: Say What?!

today was a pretty low key day. school was back in session, so sissy was off doing her thing. q and i just stayed home and played legos and trains. in the process, he popped off with a couple of gems that i need to record for posterity's sake.

today's potty success wasn't as good as yesterday's, but this afternoon, quinn did announce to me "i need to go pee" clear as day and very sure of what he meant. i really never thought i'd get all swoony over someone stating their bathroom needs, but i did :-)

on the way out for adventures this afternoon, the kids and i were in the elevator when it stopped to allow another person to board. quinn was all about conversing with this guy, and started introducing himself and olivia. when he introduced olivia, he said "dis mah fend, sissy!" i love it. i can only hope he actually feels that way for the rest of their lives.

while playing at the park tonight, quinn noticed a group of three older boys kicking a ball around, and he ran off to join them. at one point, they ran out of the park, and q tried to run after them. i stopped q and told him to stay in the park. he looked at me with his angry eyebrows and said "but i wanna play soccer ball!"

livie was not without her gems today...she sang for a good bit of the afternoon, and this included serenading the cat, serenading me, and reading a story to both me and waffle after she commanded us to lay down in bed :-) later in the evening, as we were eating dinner, she turns to me and, in her most serious voice and facial expression, explains to me that i need to make sure i cook big enough dinners to feed us and our friend, jeanette, when she comes to visit later this week.

bawahahahahaha...these two crack me up!

while i didn't snap any pics today, i do have these gems to share. quinn's lego class teacher sent me these.
