another arlo nugget..

Today is my little man's birthday so of course I need to share something he said. Last night after we put the boys to bed we heard Arlo singing, sweetly,"Silas is a dummy, a dummy, Silas is a dummy, yeah!" We yell,"that's enough of that.." A little lower we hear,"Papa is a dummy, a dummy.." We call him into the room and tell him it's not nice, we don't want to hear that, ect... He looks at us sweetly and asks, "then WHO can I call a dummy?" we say "Nobody!" Arlo:"I need to call something a dummy then!" We tell him he may call his stuffed gorilla a dummy (hoping he'll loose interest). Next thing we hear on the top of his lungs, "DUMMY, DUMMY, DUMMY, YEAH". and not just once.

another day...

So I cleaned the the carpets this last week. It took me three days so I could allow for routes to the bathroom etc.. I'm finally finished and proud of myself for doing it slow, ensuring there were no mishaps... yesterday as I'm putting everything back Arlo is screaming for me....he had an accident that included poop all over the bathroom and through the house to the garbage and back!!! lesson learned? Pride goes before the fall:) Thank God I still have the carpet cleaner...
