:bawling: that's beautiful, man.

Actually, Sycamore you may not realize it but a lot of the better car dealerships are making their finance managers take sensitivity training, so it could be the real Jim.

I like it when I catch my wife and my kids in one of those moments that can only happen between a mommy who loves her children and a child who loves his or her mommy.

At some point you begin to realize that you only get so many of those moments.

Had one of those moments the other day.

I come inside and SWMBO is wearing a pair of paisley courduroys. She asks me:

"Do I look OK in these or do they make me look like I am a camel's foot?"

Initially I have no idea what she is talking about. I look at the pants and search for a desert theme, or dust or sand. Then I notice that despite the pants being somewhat baggy on her, the cut of the fabric creates a little pucker of cloth around her crotch.

"Yes honey, they do make you look a little bit like a camel's foot." ( ;) )

"Shit, now I have to change."

Here you go...

So the "Yeah but it's damn sexy, so let's go upstairs and *** like bunnies" was out of the question? Great sex and an opportunity to score husband points.http://www.cellar.org/images/smilies/wink.gif

hahaha, only in the movies!
she was running around, late for class, elfin bedwe'er was circling her chanting: "I nurse, I nurse, I nurse" and I was knee deep in mud.

The only way I can score husband points these days is by going into hyper chore mode (on top of fulfilling all the line items on my "honeydo" list) and chilling with the bedwe'er so she can get her work done. :sniff:

I nurse???

Please do not let Bedwe'er be one of those children you see on Maury ... "In the next segment we'll have the attorney for some second graders who are demanding that their mothers' be allowed into the classroom to nurse them. We'll also hear from the school superintendant who is being sued for discrimination because he described this natural process as 'intolerable and reprehensible.' We'll also hear a very young and attractive social worker's take on the increasingly popular practice of 'late nursing.' Make sure you're back after the break!"

Inch3 is only like 2 years old, right? Why wouldn't he be nursing and speaking in 2 word sentences???

I can think of 3 right now:
He sings stupid made up songs under his breath, putzing around when he thinks no one can hear. It kills me, its so cute. He also convincingly channels a goofy, wide-eyed 12 year old during major hockey events. And, he wont let me touch his feet, so of course I must try.

That's what I thought at first, but just wanted to be sure...No opinion on it, just looking for clarification. I wished I could have nursed a lot longer than the 6 mo. I did, but such is life...Back to your regularly scheduled topic.

I ditto the moments caught when father and daughter are doing what they do, and not aware you are watching them. I always thought he's make a great father, but he's even better than I imagined.

Yes the inch3 will be two at the end of the month. Actually he says "I me nurse". He usually inserts "me" right before any verb that he will perform.

However, it is: "we go playroom, play trucks daddy?"

or:

"Where [are you] going daddy?"

but, "I me go stairs" or "I me [drink] more blueberry juice pease" pease is usually only trotted out when he wants to be especially charming. (I think this is a long, slow, buttering up for asking for the car keys)

And he has already started weaning Wolf; no Maury for us. (FWIW, SWMBO went to H.S. with Ricki Lake) He is beginning to accept the fact that mom's units need a rest and aren't producing anything like half and half mixed with honey or sucanat.


Another favorite question of his is

him: "How dooning, daddy?"
me: "I'm fine, how are you doing?"
him: "I pine too"

After a while he could say 'fine'. Later that week he was having a bath and pointed down at himself and said:
"That's my fenis"

I'm sure he'll sort it out sooner or later.

Warch, is he twelve or just channeling a twelve year old?

har!

my nephew says, "Hi, Jim-min. Whatch yer doonin'?"

What started as a cute kid quote, is now a standard greeting in our family: "watch'er doonin'?" which is sometimes substituted with a version in Hindi accent: 'Vhat you are doing?!'
