Ahoy! It's Character Day!

For school, Donovan got to have storybook character day again! He loves this day! Last year we frantically scrambled to create a Super Why character. This year we made it a little simpler. We made a list of the costume items that we had already and searched for one of our favorite books to go along with it, because they needed to bring the book that they were representing.

So. . . Donovan got to be young Jeremy Jacob from "How I Became a Pirate" by Melinda Long. (We also love "Pirates Don't Change Diapers" but Dono wanted this one.)

He loved being a pirate at school. But then, he usually loves being a pirate on any given day. ARR!

Smiling Moments

7-?-11 We were traveling to somewhere and the boys asked which way we were going. I told them that we were going to turn left. Then from the back seat, Roswell pipes up "Mommy, choose the right! When the choice is before us, choose the right!" I'm glad someone is listening. :)
5-21-11 While watching Daddy race, Elliott says, "Mommy, I know which one Daddy is. He's the one with a peach face." I think they all had peach colored skin that day, but I'm glad he could tell Daddy apart.
5-4-11 Roswell has been saying "no" to everything we say lately, just to be difficult (terrible twos). Usually I just put on a pouty face and look sad and he will smile and say "ok, mommy!" and do what he's supposed to. Today, I did the pouty face when he wouldn't eat his dinner, and instead of telling me he would take a bite he says, "don't be mad, be glad!" and then laughs. It was so funny. Apparently the glad trash bag commercials have been reappearing and the kids have seen it. I guess the pouty faces aren't going to work anymore.
