May Moments

I can't believe that May is nearing an end. The kids have been busy as usual and are growing up so fast. Kelsey is a non stop chatterbox. Her favourite sayings right now are:
"I do it myself!"
"I happy now!" This is usually said after some crazy and unnecessary outburst.
"I hit Gare. Sorry Gare."
She is still absolutely in love with her Giraffe and Teddy but has added to her list of favourite things. She will not go to sleep without Giraffe, Teddy, her blanket (large), her baby (with a huge hard plastic head), and a pewter rocking horse bank. It's crazy. It's darn near impossible to console her while she is holding all of these things and if that horse lands on my foot one more time I'm going to lose it.

Garrett loves imaginary play right now. We set up boats, forts, rocket ships, and picnics daily. I have sometimes eaten a pretend picnic, built a fort, and gone fishing in a boat full of all of his stuffed animals before 8 a.m. He's finally starting to play with Kelsey which is a real treat. I overheard this conversations this morning.
"I love you so so much Kelsey. Do you love me?"
"I love you Gare."
"I'm going to take care of you for ever. I'm going to teach you to say humpback whale. First you say hump and then whale."
"Humpback whale," replied Kelsey.
Less than 3 minutes later....."Mom!!!! Kelsey hit me!"
Sigh.....
