The Big Tomato, Hairplanes and Sank You

I love this age with Nicholas (and loved it with Patrick, too) because of the cute words they come up with. Patrick and Nicholas were running around my MIL's backyard recently hiding from the big twister (courtesy of a recent Wonder Pets episode they watched) and Nicholas has continued the game here at home over the last few weeks, except that he keeps saying "Hurry, hurry, mommy, the big tomato is coming!". He also calls airplanes "hairplanes" and says "sank you" instead of thank you.



Patrick had his school program last week. It was called "Dinostars" with an American Idol theme. It was cute. He is in the back row on the right with the orange hat.

I made Valentines for his class this year. They were lifesaver rolls turned into rockets. They turned out pretty cool. Chuck sent me tulips and one of our neighbors left flowers on our doorstep. Aside from the colds and pink eye, it was a good V-day.

While Chuck was on vacation he finished a walk way that had been started by the previous owners. He also wired our new under the cabinet TV that my MIL gave us for Christmas. It is really awesome for when we are cooking dinner or doing the dishes.
