August 5, 2014

While driving we pass by a house under construction… David: Look Meredith, a house is being built. Meredith: When I get bigger I buy dat house. David: Yeah because you’ll want to live near mommy and daddy right? And you’ll have a lot of money so you can buy it. Meredith: I want all YOUR money. David: Don’t worry, you’ll have it. Reading books before bed… Meredith: I came out of your tummy and then it was baby brudder’s turn. Me: that’s right and I’m so glad you came out and are growing into my big girl. Meredith: I want to do it again! Me: what? Meredith: go in your tummy! After accidentally knocking Liam on the head with a book and he is crying……

And of course, I’d love it if you’d chime in with your own! Genius : getting myself…
