David's sick, Zoe likes to sing

David woke up sick exactly a week after Zoe was sick. He yelled for me from bed - which isn't unusual - and most times I ignore him and hope he will get over whatever toy he dropped and go back to sleep. This time he kept on, and on.. finally he said "Mommy!! YOU WAKE UP!!!" Turns out he was most upset that he got puke on his socks and he wanted that fixed right away. Poor kid spent the rest of the night (a couple hours was all that was left) in the recliner and then spent the day with Daddy, who by the way, was also sick. David slept 3 1/2 hours in the afternoon and was good as new when he woke up. He was so naughty! He was pushing Zoe's buttons all night long and again this morning. A half hour before bed last night he took one of her favorite trains that she always wants to take to bed. She didn't notice at the time, but he had taken it and tucked it into his own bed so she couldn't have it at bedtime! Rotten!!

Brett's still recovering by the way, but he's on the up.

Zoe's been singing songs lately. She knows Ring Around the Rosie of course. The latest are "happy capyer hands" (If you're happy and you know it clap your hands); and Itsy Bitsy Spider - I have to start and she fills in "out came sun dy-up-all rain itsy bitsy spider again." When we drive by the bus barn every night - the Wheels on the Bus. We go through the wheels, wipers, mommies, babies and daddies. Do you know what the daddies on the bus say? Well I didn't either when David asked me a few weeks ago so I made it up. The daddies say "that's my pop!" Because poor Daddy has to say that a lot. And they still remember. Cracks me up every time.

David was being especially huggy with Zoe tonight and she was getting fed up - she said "David get off!"

She also put herself in timeout. I wonder if it's to get some peace and quiet from that brother of hers. Or maybe she's jealous because he's usually the one who's there? Anyway David didn't like it and he kept going over and yelling in her face "YOU GET OUTTA TIMEOUT!"

We're still doing the "Mommy. What? Nothin." joke. They both get it now and it's so silly. Zoe just says "Nuffin." David plays along and says "Daddy! Mommy got me again!"

Grandpa Paul left his coffee cup here and David was the first to notice. "Uh oh, Grandpa forgeths his coffee!" Zoe saw it later, "Gappa's coffee, oh no!" I think they're looking forward to taking it back to him.
