Jamie Oliver Would be Proud - Sorta.

The boys and I were out running errands this week when I realized it was way past lunch time.  Stopped at the drive through, I asked Miles if he wanted apples or fries with his nuggets.  He said, "APPLES!" Ahhhh, good choice Buddy!  I told him Mom would get fries and we could share.  "No Mom, " he said, "You need apples." I "need" apples, as in, I don't need fries? "No fries Mom.  You NEED apples too."   I'm going to have to get more organized before the day comes when Miles tells me we shouldn't even be eating fast food.

As we left and were headed home, we passed the Gelato cafe that's a family favorite.  "Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm - Ice Cream!"  I hear from the back seat. "Mom - It's time for ice cream." What about your apples? Do you want ice cream for lunch, instead?  "Yeah! I LOVE ice cream!"

What a relief.  He's normal after all.

Terms of Endearment

It was one of those lazy early mornings when Dad left for work early and the boys and I weren't awake enough to do anything other than snuggle on the couch together.  Max was his full milk belly happy self, smiling and cooing at me when Miles crawled into my lap next to him.  As he laid his head on my chest he said, "I love you so much."  After my melted heart recovered, I blinked back tears and said, "I love you too, Miles." He looked up at me with his big doe-like brown eyes, smiled and said, "I'm so smart."

Here's a few pic's of the Great Egg Hunt 2010. Miles was eager to get started after getting "noculars" from E.B. Max hung out with cousin Adam during the whole event.
