This morning after breakfast of oatmeal and grapefruit (I am so impressed that my 3 year old likes oatmeal and grapefruit that I felt the need to give you that detail) I told Jacob he could watch his new construction video that he picked out from the library (also a minor detail advocating for the local library) while I went up to take a shower. Our conversation went like this...
Jacob: Why are you going to take a shower?
Mom: So I can get clean.
Jacob: Because you like to take showers?
Mom: Yes. I like to take baths too but I am too big for our bathtub. Someday Mommy is going to get a big bathtub. (There is nothing wrong with sharing my dreams with my 3 year old, right?)
Jacob: Ohhhh. So it will be big and Daddy can sit next to you and scrub you up?
Mom: Yes. (?)
Jacob: And you can play TOYS!
And yesterday after his ECFE class we went out for lunch at a local cafe. He was eating his peanut butter sandwich (he thinks it is really great when a peanut butter sandwich isn't on the menu but they are able to make one for him if we ask nice). Part of our (always entertaining) conversation went like this...
Mom: Jacob, it is sure fun to have lunch with you. You are a really good boy. Thanks for eating nice.
Jacob: Thank you! And you are a really good girl too.
Oh boy. This kid makes me laugh. Speaking of boys...I am happy to report that the littlest boy is growing well. I had a check up last night and everything is looking good. I am measuring 23 1/2 weeks but was actually surprised because from the way I feel I honestly thought she was going to tell me something like "this is going to be a big baby!" Hehe. He is very active - especially while I am trying to sleep at night. Let's hope that this isn't any indication of his habits once he is born.
We're off to a lunch date with Dad today. And no doubt some more entertaining conversation.
