Funny Mo

My friend Kristin and I trade off the school pick up responsibilities. It is fun to have her daughter, Sydney in the car. Apparently Naomi agrees.

Sydney emailed me this from her phone -

Car Show with Grandpa

My dad was working in Phoenix for a couple of months and took a weekend to come see us. It was great o have him there. It was also the weekend of our local chili cook off and car show, so we headed on over.

My dad mentioned that this was the same model car he drove when he was Summer's age, so I got a picture of him in front of it.

It was so much fun that I told the kids that were with us (the 5 youngest) that they could each pick their favorite car and I'd take a picture of them in front of the car of their choice. Somehow I missed Heather. She probably would have picked the police horses that were there instead of a car, anyway.

Ready toTake Her Road Test

Naomi is becoming quite the back seat driver. Recently, we were on the way to pick Rachel up from school and she asked where we were going. I told her and she announced that we were going the wrong way and that this was the way to Summer’s school, not Rachel’s.

A couple of days after that, we picked Summer up first and then were on our way to get Rachel from a different direction. She told me again that this was not the way to Rachel’s school and backed her pronouncement up with, “And I am RIGHT.”

It isn't only my sense of direction that she thinks need improvement. I stopped at a red light behind a Honda and she told me, “You are not far enough away from that little car, Mommy.”

Milestones

We've hit some milestones around here this month.

Here's Naomi on the day she turned ONE in her birthday sweater from Grandma :)

Happy Birthday Mo!!!
