Growing Up and Funny Story 9-04

Well, it's official, our kids are growing up. We took Sweet Pea to "meet the teachers" today. The teachers seem so sweet and they are great with kids. Sweet Pea did great in Sunday School on Sunday (she ran up to me after church and said, "I went to Sunday School and I didn't cry, Mommy, so Daddy is going to get me a present"). She was so proud of herself. She also had fun in the classroom this morning, so I think we are off to a good start. Oh, and last night when we told her we were going to school to meet her teachers she said, "But, what are their names, Mommy?" I thought we were going to pass out. I know it doesn't sound like much, but she is only 2 (and 5 months), and she was geniunely interested in what their names were. I just put her down for her nap on a "nap mat" to get her ready for naps at school. She did great and she loved laying on a mat on the floor!

And we finally moved Bear to his crib. He has been doing great and I can't tell you how great WE are doing with a little extra sleep. I am not sure if it was on purpose (on Daddy's part), but we happen to move him out of our room just in time for football season! We actually were able to watch the end of the Clemson/FSU game last night - with sound! Anyways, Bear is a great baby.

So, I have a funny story, too. I'll try to keep it clean since this is a family friendly blog...
The other day I was changing Bear's diaper on our bed and Sweet Pea climbed up on the bed too. She hasn't paid much attention to his boy parts, so I haven't had any reason to worry about her seeing him without a diaper. Anyways, she climbed up right next to him, took one look at his peepee and said, "It's a turtle, Mommy, it's a turtle". I tried so hard not to laugh, but that meant I couldn't respond to her comment so, I guess she thought I didn't hear her. So, she repeated it, "It's a turtle, Mommy, it's a turtle". I lauged (inside, of course) so hard!! I love having kids :)!
