I thought of the perfect nickname for Teddy as if Teddy isn't nickname enough.  Ted Head.  Like a Dead Head, for those of you who don't know it's a follower of the band The Grateful Dead.  Anyway, I like it.  

Today Lennon went over to the blocks and very specifically took out four or five red blocks, set them aside, put the lid back on the tub and walked away.  No clue what the heck he was doing, but he seemed like he accomplished it.  

Mia picked up Teddy when he was fussing yesterday and rocked him to sleep in her lap.  She then said "I'm just like a little mommy!"

A conversation from the back seat of a mom's car.

Mia "How many boyfriends do you have Chloe?"

Chloe "I have two.  How many do you have?"

Mia  "I have three.  Well, only two now.  Giovanni and Christian (that's Chloe's 11 year old brohter)  Mateus was my boyfriend but we broke up."

Chloe  "Oh, did he dump you?"

Mia "Yeah."

Chloe "Why?"

Mia "I don't know.  I guess he just kept talking to me and asking me questions and stuff. (long pause)  But, whattayagonnado, he's only four."

Much hysteria.
