Brothers and an Ava-ism


Brothers


Today after nap Ava brought up her favorite topic:  Santa.  So I started having a conversation with her about Santa.  What did we leave for Santa?  cookies.  What did we leave for the reindeer?  carrots.  Then I asked her what did Santa bring us?  I thought she would say presents or books or a doll.  But no.  Her response was Dawson.  Isn't that funny?  She thinks that Santa brought baby Dawson.

I must spend at least one minute bragging about myself, but mainly the kids.  We made it to story time today at the library!  This was a huge accomplishment getting everyone dressed and ready to go by 10:30.  But really the credit should go to my kids.  They were so well behaved at home and at the library.  They followed directions well and the big kids held hands and followed me around the library while I picked out books.  Baby Dawson didn't make a peep the entire time we were out.  I couldn't ask for a better bunch!  Tomorrow's Mission Impossible?  Getting Carter to preschool by 9:00.  We'll see how that goes.

  1. Wow, I am duly impressed! Ruth just turned 3 months and I only have 1 other at-home kid, and we haven't made it storytime yet!
