Oh, No!

Thomas finishes his "foo foo" (peanut butter and jelly sandwich), holds out his sticky hands and says, "Oh, no!"

----

The Cookie Monster dvd freezes because, as I discover a few minutes later, there is peanut butter on it. Thomas points to the tv and says, "Oh, no!"

----

Thomas methodically takes out each of the pegs in his pound-a-peg toy. Then, he picks up the base, holds it up to his face and says, "Oh, no!"

New Bike

Thomas's New Schwinn Roadster from Leslie Ann McNolty on Vimeo.



Did you see that little pat he gave it there at the end? He slept with it in his room last night too.

Thanks Grandpa Jerry!

This is not an announcement.*

Me: What do you think of the name Merritt for a girl?

Jeremy: Merritt Garrett?

Me: Oh. Never mind.


*To be perfectly clear, I'm not pregnant.

Le Creuset

Happy Birthday To Me! Jeremy bought me a Le Creuset french oven for my birthday! (I guess he wanted my undying affection. Or maybe just dinner.)



I l.o.v.e. love it. I may have licked it when I took it out of the box yesterday. The woman who runs the Amazon shop Jeremy bought it from even sent a matching pot holder and oven mitt.

I know some people might wonder if I really need a $200 pot. And of course I don't need it. But I'll use it at least 3 times a week for the foreseeable future. And, perhaps the thing I like most about it, it will outlive me. Someday someone will pry it from my cold, dead fingers I'll pass it on to someone else and they'll still be able to use it for years. It's an heirloom, people.
