New Series: Jed-isms

Today Mama has the blues. The lady kind.

So I tell Jed that Mama's not feelin' so good and Jed says one of his favorite lines when something is broken or not correct:
"Don't worry Mama, we can fix you later. It's ok."

Thanks little buddy.

He also checked on me while I was in the potty:
"Mama, you ok over there?"

Hopefully he continues this concern as he gets older. Fat chance right? :)

Big Girl

I may be short
I may be stout,
But I'm what Mama
Smiles about.
My chubby hands
And pudgy toes,
Cute as a button
That's just how it goes.
I can sit up tall now
I'm growing so fast,
Watch out big brother
Soon I'm gonna kick your... um, butt!

Just a normal breakfast...

Dear Zooey,

I promise that when you're older I won't embarrass you by telling your boyfriends that I called you Chubby Vagina as a baby.

At least I hope you'll forgive me if I do.

Love,
Mama

Just a typical walk with Jed. (Photo Entry)

I am just going to have a seat on this sign... (it looks like he's going potty)


Having a zen moment with the tree...


Is anyone coming?


How about to my left?


Ok, I think it's safe...



For an M&M break!


Look Mom! Take a picture!


Yogo Joy M&M break! All this walking is tiring!



...and a break at Poppy's



What the heck, I'll have one on their stoop too!



Phew!


This is my "drunken(on M&Ms) and homeless on the stoop" impression


The guy sweeping inside thinks I'm hysterical!!


I see Mister do this at home in the sun...


This what I think about fancy shoes!


Gotta stretch (right before I spilled my M&Ms for the 1st time)


Oh Hello! little Christmas tree!


Double fisting now (we had a big M&M spillage a block before)


Look Mom! An M&M tower!


Chillin' on the stoop with my M&Ms

Default Sentences

From the second Jed wakes up to the second he falls asleep, he is either moving or talking or both. This kid has a lot to say, but sometimes his little developing brain runs out of things to say. This is where he resorts to what I call, his Default Sentences.

"Hey Mama."
"Yes, Jed?"
"Do you remember the cows on the farm?"

"I gotta go to work, Mom. I gotta go to work and buy strawberries and blueberries."

"You want to go to work, Mom?" (he likes to talk about "work".

You can't make this stuff up...

When talking to Jed about who has which private parts (pee-pee vs. vagina (gina)), we moved on past people to the dog.

Me: Jed, what does Good Girl(Lily) have, a pee-pee or a gina?
Jed: Good Girl has a tail!!!! And a butt!

You can't argue with that.
