Can I Help you Officer?!

This afternoon, I was on some errands, and Rowen got hungry. Well, he will NOT take a bottle from me, so I pulled over into a semi-empty parking lot, found a spot on the back row with absolutely no cars parked near, and got Rowen out of the car. I put a blanket up in the front widow to cover his eyes from the sun and started breastfeeding him in the front seat. (Sorry if too much info) Anyway, pretty soon, I see a car out of the corner of my eye. It pulls up right next to me, and I am thinking "How annoying! Couldn't you find another spot in this huge lot!" I look over, and it is a cop! He is just sitting there staring at me! I look away, hoping that he will just disappear. Well, he just keeps sitting there and staring. Now I am thinking "What? Is it illegal to breastfeed your son in a deserted parking lot?!" Well, I am getting a little self conscious at this point so I cover up all the way, roll down the window and say "Can I help you officer?!"
He says, "Are you okay?"
I say, "Yes"
He says" Are you just taking a time out?" (What?)
I say, "No, actually I'm just trying to feed my son!"
He blushes, as he finally figures out what I am doing! "Oh, I am sorry to interrupt, have a good day!" And drives off!
I don't know who was more embarrassed!

Hola!

This morning when Makaylee woke up, she came running into my room and shouted in a friendly sort of way "Hola!" Terry was so proud!

A Funny Conversation

On the way home from preschool the other day, Makaylee and I had a funny little conversation. She was telling me that she got to be the VIP today, and that Jack didn't. Then the conversation went like this.
Makaylee: "But, Jack is not my boyfriend!"
Me: "Good"
Her: "But when I get big, will I have a boyfriend"
Me: "No, we don't like boyfriends"
Her: "Why?"
Me: "Because, they are Icky!"
Her: "No they are not! I love boyfriends!"
Oh, her father would have died if he was there! What is she learning in preschool! She still doesn't know all her letters, but she is sure learning interesting "street stuff" from the other kids!
A few days later she told me that she was going to marry Rowen!

2 Snow Whites and a Dwarf

Makaylee and her friend Morgan both dressed up as Snow White for Halloween this year.
So, of course, Rowen had to dress up as a dwarf!

Which Dwarf? It really depends on the moment, but I would say Happy!

Terry's costume consisted of a Sleeve Tattoo, it's more effort than I put into it.
