7 Quick Takes...

Joining Jen again this week, Carter style.

I was in our office typing out this blog post, as close to the end of Friday as I could (I like to be on time), and I heard a thumping on the wall.  Jeremy was in the barn, so it could only be the one wee-one who wasn't confined to a crib (unless we had an intruder).  "CAR-ter!"

"But Mom, I got up to check on you, and you were not in yo bed.  You was doin bidness in dee office, and you supposed to be in bed!  Now tay in bed!"  Hmm, wonder where he heard that.

I was making some side dishes for a funeral meal and was explaining to Carter that we were making these for some people who were very sad and that it might make them feel a tiny bit better.  He then said, "Mom, may I take dem a band-aid?  That will feel dem better!"

We Facetimed with RoRo last weekend, and she was wearing a stocking cap after having just run maybe 20 miles.  Carter asked her to take it off.  She said she couldn't because her hair was messy.  The next morning when I woke up, Carter said, "Mommy, you need a cap!"

"When I grow up, I will be a Monk and I will pray."  Thanks to his cartoons, Carter is loving the religious life right now ;)  We'll see if it sticks.

Carter and I did our little baking project for the week.  We mad cranberry almond biscotti, found here.  They are a family favorite.  I took tons of pictures of Carter helping with every step, with his opened mouth, "I am serious" cooking face.  AND....there was no card in the camera.  Fail.

Carter has been really worried about his sick little brother this week, saying "Oh Deah (Dear)!" all day long.

Carter's latest bedtime trick...getting out of bed because he is in dire need of Peter's green vest buttoned to the top in order to sleep.  And, what do I do?  Put it on.

We don't wear pants around here, and we like to pick our nose.
