Hiking at local streams, biking on the trail, biking to our local coffeeshop.

Bathroom etiquette

Both Paul and I have received separate lessons from Kate now on how to leave the bathroom using your paper towel so that our hands don't get dirty again. This was her big take away from a weekend with her Uncle Willie. Still giggling over this.

Two questions at midnight

"mommy, do all stories have happy endings?"

"if you hear elly barking, will you come run and get me? "

Then I had to prove I am strong and can fight. Despite my liberal raising of her she seemed to think that was Daddy's job. She obviously doesn't know us that we'll. #pacifistdaddy #hellraisermommy

The other side

Just so you don't think Jacob is too refined...

While Jacob was putting on his swim trunks today, he laid down naked on the floor, flipped his feet in the air and said, "Look at my butt!!  See my butt, Daddy??  It's big!"

Daddy P, then, not sure what exactly to say says, "Well, it looks kinda normal size butt."

This was not enough for Jacob, who then proclaimed, "No, I have a big butt, Daddy.  My butt is bigger than yours."

Daddy P says, "uh...no, it's not bigger than mine."

Jacob, emphatically:  "Yes.  Yes it is, Daddy."

Jacob-ism

"daddy, why is this is bird jealous?"
"what makes you think it's jealous? "
" it is alone I am the dark. "
