Our January Babies

Merick's first birthday was in January.

Xavier was kind enough to share some candy Legos for the cupcake toppers.

An action shot of cake flinging.

Merrick had *never* before actually licked his fingers clean.  I think he really enjoyed his cupcake.

Xav chose robots to top his cake.  He's taking a robotics class at co-op and absolutely LOVES it.  Happy birthday six year old!

Thinking Deep Thoughts From the Third Row Seat

I know why cows weigh more than people.  Because they are full of so much milk.

Why do cows have extra stomachs?  Is one for her baby?

Xav: I just saw a horse with clothes on!
Micah: What was it wearing?  A hat and mittens?
Xav: No, just a shirt.

Way-back seat driving:
Xav: Mom, why don't you drive in the middle row?
Me: There is no middle lane.
Xav: We could pretend...

Waiting to turn left:
The light is green, GO!

I'm mad Obama won, I wanted the guy in the blue shirt to win.
