I survived my first day back to work. And I wasn't disappointed. It was work. Yup.
I sure did miss my little guys all day, but came home for my dinner break and brought home a bunch of fresh library books for Lucas. I can't tell you how excited he was. As he fell asleep he said, "Mom, I really love my skateboarder books." And then he was asleep.
I read this article yesterday, and can't stop thinking about it.

Kids say the darndest things....
Lucas: Mom, I think Elliott is hungry for some milk from your boobies.
Me: I think you are right.
Lucas: (thinking) When he gets bigger will you make him eggs from your boobies?
Me: (silently wishing boobies could make eggs....)
On a walk, Lucas points out a pickup truck that has one tire on the grass and three on the sidewalk. Great parking, right?
Lucas: Mom, that truck has one wheel on the grass and the other ones on the sidewalk.
Me: I see! Isn't that odd?
Lucas: It is just doing the hokey pokey, mom.
Elliott hasn't said anything yet, but I am certain he is thinking of some doozies.
Speaking of my littlest boy, he is wearing a one year sleeper. A ONE YEAR SLEEPER!!! He was supposed to stay little for longer, but it is going by even faster than the first time. Only 5 months old, and I can't believe what a love he is. He has just started to put his index and middle finger in his mouth upside down to suck on them, and he makes the most devilish little grin when he gets it just right. No teeth yet, and no real food, but I can tell by foot kicks and table grabs and gooing that he is getting pretty interested.

I almost forgot....
A few more things about Elliott...
I call him Mr. Rodeo Arm or occasionally Mr. Cowboy because when he is eating, he flails his available arm like he is on a bucking bronco. That kid. What a nut.
Also, his hair is starting to come in.
I like to make Elliott 'talk' to Lucas in a very specific character voice. One day I'll take a video so you can see what a kick Lucas gets out of it. He even asks to have Elliott give him directions. What a hoot.
OK, got to get to bed.
We had a very busy day with Big Bampomps and Little Bampomps at the tide pools and a pumpkin patch/jumpy house/pony ride/petting zoo/train ride place. Exhausting!
