so late, but i'll try

i must share these funny things before bedtime (and because i need to finish this day on a good note):

-during our near brush with death (stomach flu), the husband caught the worst of it first, leaving me to watch the bean playing around while i lay on the floor. as the two of us were playing, she heard papa retching violently in the bathroom. needless to say, it caught her attention (and, frankly, mine too). head perked up, she proceeded with the sign for dog and a few barks. yes, bean, that IS a dog.

-lately i've also been trying to teach her what her tummy is since she's been hitting it like she's a jolly old santa these days. we'll go back and forth: "bean's tummy, mommy's tummy" and so on. so tonight before bed while putting on her pj's i asked, "where's bean's tummy?" and she slapped her stomach. then, "where's mama's tummy?" and, yes, folks, she slapped both of my boobs.

i laugh out loud just thinking about it.

crazy kids.
