The Color of Poo

Ben's favorite color is blue. So, for Zach's birthday, Ben wanted to buy Lofthouse cookies with blue frosting and cookies with yellow frosting, yellow being one of Zach's favorite colors and the other being green.

Anyway, a couple of days ago, I noticed and mentioned to Ben that his poo was bright green. I thought for a moment then told him it was from the blue frosting. No big deal. But yesterday, Ben brought a blue cookie to Zach and told him it would turn his poo green. Steve asked Ben if he wanted a blue cookie too. Ben replied, "No, green isn't one of my favorite colors".

Fish Fry

Zach had a day off from school on Friday. At about 4:30, Zach came up the stairs as I was just starting to get the pots around for dinner. He said, "Mom, I don't like home days all day. I want to go somewhere. I want to go to McDonalds". I replied, "Well, your dad and I talked about going to the fish fry". He said, "I want to go there! I want to try that"! Zach's enthusiasm for the fish fry was so contagious, even Ben became excited. And when we finally pulled into the parking lot at the restaurant, Ben asked, "Is this the fish RIDE"?

Thomas!

Ben got an XL Thomas puzzle from Grandma for Christmas. He has always been my puzzle boy. So, he and Daddy sat down to put it together the other night.
Zach wanted his picture taken with Thomas too. So, they are laying on my kitchen floor with Thomas. Ben has put the puzzle together three times now and he's getting quite good at doing it.
