guess who...

...is 6 months old today?

2 shiny white teeth
lots of practice using them
bright blue eyes and a little brown head
always scanning the room, looking for his entertainment
prefers sitting up, eating toys, waving his arms
starting to refuse his daytime bottles
lots of giggling at big bro and sis
wide grin and big eyes when he sees daddy
2 chubby little arms waving "pick me up"
enjoys his big red seat at table (when he can talk 2 forks out of it)
adorable little rolls and rolls and rolls
loves riding in mamas sling

such a blessing....to us all.

Bible stories

Little Mommy tried to help out Youngest Brother today, whilst his diaper was getting changed. She thought he would feel better if she read him a Bible story. She got out her little pink Bible, and this is what she 'read':

"God created the whole rainbow world. And there was a big responsibility, that the water would never come back."

Talk about the Cliff Notes version of the first few chapters of Genesis!

Bananas

The other day, Two Forks is eying a bunch of bananas on the kitchen counter. He ranks right up there with the Saint Louis Zoo for per-diem-per-capita consumption. Unfortunately, this particular bunch is still a bit green, and there are no yellow ones in striking distance.

Two Forks looks up at Mommy H and says, "We don't eat the green ones."

Oh? Why not?

"When they grow up, they turn yellow."
