"You Too....."

Jess took today off, so we have him home for four days!

A large chunk of our tax return this year will be going to getting Gia's teeth cleaned. We had to take her in for an exam today. The kids think that's a lot of fun.
Gia is apparently teeny. She used to weigh 80 lbs, and was 62 today! That's a huge weight loss. But the vet says she's at a good weight, maybe a pound or two light.

You know when you're at a restaurant and the waiter says something like "enjoy your meal" and you automatically say "Thanks, you too." even though it makes no sense, and then you get embarrassed? Well I pulled one of those today. The vet was about to leave the room and she said "You have really good kids." Well I thought she was about to say "You have a good day" so I said "You too." Ha. Awesome. So I told Jess she probably did have good kids, if she had any. She seemed nice enough. Ha. What a dork. I hope she didn't notice.

I've been thinking about stuff to do in Caso's room, and remembered these wooden rocket ships that I saw in the birdhouse aisle at Michael's(the craft store) one time. We called because it was like a year ago, and they had ONE. They set it aside for us and we drove down to get it. Caso loves it and I painted it for him.
While I was searching for ideas for his room online I came across something AWESOME to make for little boys. I can never come up with cool stuff to sew for boys. Robots are the only thing I've made for him so far, but then I found THIS!

I looked for more of the same thing just to help me get a good idea of how I want it to look, and found this one on Etsy too.

I can't wait to make him one.

Neely's newest trick is saying "Belly button" whenever she shows it to us. She says "Bell bu-un". She was also rolling a ball around with her head today.
AND she had a conversation with Aunt TT on the phone today for probably 5 minutes, and even after that long she was super mad when I took the phone back. She would be talking gibberish, and throw in a "Hewooo"(Hello) once in a while, while wandering around the yard doing important stuff.
Like trying to turn the water on.
Cason actually posed willingly with me.
They got to have their favorite dinner, pumpkin pasta, and I even let them eat it out front. They were pleased.
We let them play video games together after we came in, and Paige and Cason were like this:
I love how well they get along.
