Guess who can whistle.

I must say that I found this extremely impressive at 4 years old. Not only that, but I was thrilled for Meredith! Claire can't yet whistle (although she tries as hard as she can), and being the younger sister myself, I thought it was fabulous that Meredith did something before her big sister.

I always wanted to do everything at the same time that Jill did it. (I'm so competitive that way.) We were joking the other day that things change once you get older. Because once you get older, you want your sister to get gray hair and wrinkles first! I'd like to take my time with these things thank you very much.

So, way to go Meredith! Oh, and she can also curl her tongue...she's building quite a resume, you know.

 

birthday.money

Meredith asked me to save this 1 GALLON JUG for her the other day....

Me: Why do you want this?
Meredith: Weeeeellllll, I want it for my birthday. (which isn't until Feb. by the way)
Me: What are you going to do with it on your birthday?
Meredith: We're going to set it on the table and the people that come to my party are going to fill it with money.

Attention family and friends: If you think you might get an invite to Meredith's party, you will want to start saving your change now.

Or, you may want to fill up your calendar the week of Feb. 16.

Who needs a jack-o-lantern when you have a 6-year-old that's missing most of her front teeth?

Perfect timing. :)

pretend.mom

Life has been pretty busy around here (what's new?!)...hence the lack of posts. However, I will be posting some exciting happenings soon!

I'll leave you with this....

Claire: Mom, let's pretend that you're the mom....ok?
Me: Ok.

Not quite sure why I need to pretend. I feel like I'm pretty cut out for the role at this point. :)
