Two Conversations

Andrew: Is macaroni and cheese a protein food?
Mom: No, it's more of a carbohydrate, or energy food.
Andrew: Like ants?
Mom: (speechless)
Andrew: Man vs. Wild says that ants are an energy food, so they must be carbohydrates.
Mom: And he would know.


Sam: Kayla from my class is in love with me, but I don't love her. She chases me around the playground, but I run away. Sometimes Evan helps me run away.
Andrew: I'm not really interested in love. I don't really get it.

Sam's basketball

Sam had his 2nd game today in the YMCA basketball league. He had fun, and made a couple of baskets. His team is well-coached by a dad who used to coach our local high school team. He's a pretty serious coach for 6-7 year olds, but they're learning a lot. Sam's best friend from kindergarten, Rocco (in picture above) is on his team too.

Sam's Smile

Sam's smile evolved again today when his other front tooth came out! It had been barely hanging in all day, but he wouldn't let anyone pull it. This morning it started to bleed, and he resembled something out of a scary movie. Finally, it came out in his pasta at dinner. You can already see both of his new front teeth peeking through, so he may not look like this for long!

Back on Duty

Look out, squirrels. She's back.

Random Saturday night

Here's what we're up to on this rainy Saturday night.....

The Harvey kids are spending the night tonight while their parents host a party. It's fun to have them here.

We haven't had much in the way of interesting news lately. We're all back to work and school. Sam had a check-up last Wednesday, and he is 4 feet tall, 62 lbs. and a healthy guy. When Sam went back to school on Monday, he reported that, "Just about everyone in my class lost a tooth over the break!"
