Kids say the funniest things...

So, after Nicholas having a couple of reactions to a variety of foods, a cat and being miserable this fall Dave and I decided that we best have him tested for allergies. It turns out the poor kid is allergic to almost everything...including dust. Do you know what this means for me...I MUST step up the cleaning or hire a housekeeper. I prefer to go with the later of the two. Anyway, we now know and knowing is half the battle, correct? As Nick and I were talking the other evening he told me that Madi was a boy. I looked at him and said "Nick, you know that Madi is a little girl!" Then I broke out the "boys have a penis and girls do not(I couldn't go as far as telling him the girl part)." He then looked at me and said..."Mom, you know I can't have peanuts because they make me sick." Well, so much for me trying to use the technical terms...back to calling it a weenie! Can you believe he is going to be 3 on December 1st!!! Until next time...wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Can we say sugar...

Well, we have made it through another Halloween without getting sick from the amount of sugar that was eaten. The kids loved every bit of it or at least I think they did. Nick maybe a little more than Madi. Maybe next year she will be all about Halloween and dressing up. She was supposed to be a princess butterfly but would have nothing to do with the wings and head piece. I guess that I can't blame her! Nick was loving every part of the evening playing his role as "Woody". It was a good night and now it is on to the next big event!
