Andrew The Red-Nosed Reindeer...

While riding his scooter down the neighbor's driveway he hit a rock and face-planted into the concrete. I'm glad that this is ALL that happened! So now he has to sport a scabby nose for a while. I think I'll wait to take our yearly family picture until it heals. He's still cute!

The "Fourth"

Andrew and I talking while driving to go grocery shopping. So cute. Classic Andrew:

_____________________________________________

Andrew: Mommy...do you know what the fourth is?

Me: Yep I do.

Andrew: Well what is it?

Me: When you're counting and you count 1-2-3-4...the one that is #4 is the fourth.

Andrew: Nope. That's not it.

Me: Really? (At this point I'm only listening to him half way...at least until he said this...)

Andrew: Pretend I'm Obi-wan-kenobi...and the window is down, and there is a bad guy over there. I'm going to use the fourth to win a fight with him.

(By now I am holding back my laughter...see, Andrew has a lisp. All of his "S" sounds come out as "th".)

Me: Ohhhhh...ok. I get it now........

Andrew: The fourth gives you power!

Me: (Quiet for a sec) Lets practice your "S" sounds again ok? Say "sssssssss"...now say "forsssssss".
