Jonas funny

"...Person, person, zombie"  ....  "no no, it's 'perons, person, zombie' then you get up and zombie-chase me around...."

omg I'm dying of laughter!  This is what I hear from the other room.  Jonas is appearntly instructing three sweet little girls in his new made up game.  I think it's "duck, duck, goose!" revised.  he's been talking about "duck, duck, goose!" a lot, so I'm not surprised, but this is indeed a new take on it.

Boxes and Babies

So we're moving in 2 days, just a few streets away.  A bigger, nicer, much higher rent house than we live in now.  It should be wonderful over all.  Nice big fenced in back yard, dishwasher, 4 bedrooms, yada yada yada.  You can read about it on my blog about me, along with the stolen car debacle.  
At any rate, the house over there is not yet ready for us, and my house over here is not yet ready to be moved.  After all, I still have to live here and take care of children here.  I broke down Jonas' room (since he doesn't use it for anything but lego building) and started packing and piling boxes in there.  It's hard to decipher what things we need to live here for a few days and what we don't.  I'm still not sure.  I'm confidant that there are many things I should be packing, but I'm not sure what they are.

Lavinia seem overly excited about the move and has woken in the night and done strange things the past few nights, many of which include peeing in my bed.  Lovely.
Jonas talks about it a lot, but I think I've discussed it all enough with him that he's handling it all very well, aside from being high strung and more aggressive than usual.  We haven't actually changed very much yet, so I still expect transition anxiety and post move insanity - in all parties.

Come to think of it, I should get up off my ass and start packing again.....

Egghead

Lavi's been carrying around this uncooked real egg for about an hour.  I can't get her to put it down.  She's professed her love for it (what's going on around here with that?) and how much she wishes her mother would cook it for her.  I can't stop giggling.  She's been known to do this before, but this is just over the top.

Baby Love

Jonas:  "Don't you know we love taking care of babies?"



Sniff sniff.... Have you ever heard anything sweeter? He said this moments ago and I came cyber-running here to document it. He really does, too. He said this gem to his rollie pollie baby girl friend who we watch twice a week. He looks forward to her. It's adorable to see this rough tough and seemingly insensitive and empathy-less big grown up guy simply melt over this little squish. You wouldn't even believe it.







p.s. yes yes I know I've been MIA for far too long.  Shame on me.
