Sheesh!!

While looking at preschools the other day I asked Luke if he liked the one we just saw. His reply, "It's cute and it smells good." At the next school I introduced him to the director and he said, "pleased to meet you." Perfect! Then he follows it up with, "Do you have a baby in your tummy?" while pointing at her stomach. She DID NOT have a baby in her tummy. I stared at her with no response. Maybe we'll choose the one that smelled good.

And Yesterday:

We are at Walgreen's. Luke is in his Spiderman costume (of course). An Older lady starts to talk to him about how cute he is. Quoth Luke, "You are OLD! Look at those wrinkles on her arms! She is OLD!" Again air just flows our of my mouth and I stare awkwardly. What is my problem?! How do I follow these statements up and where is MY mask??

We tell kids to tell the truth, but how do you teach them the subtle nuances of it???
I think I'm in trouble.

Saying Goodbye to Maple

We finally did it. We packed it up and made our way to California. I'm pretty sad to leave our little house in Salt Lake. We've basically remodeled the entire inside of the house ourselves and I feel like the house is part of the family now. I've loved living there and LOVED, LOVED, LOVED having my friends and family so close. Well, no more. We're in Menlo Park, California now so plan your vacations accordingly.Our house when we moved in.

Even though I forgot to take a picture of the house before we left, here is basically what it looked like when we pulled away from the house. Imagine a few more flowers added. =)

Luke thought moving day was the funnest day of his life so far.
Gwynie was indifferent about the whole thing.

We've been here almost a month, which is hard to believe. We've still got a lot of unpacking and organizing to do, but I'm starting to fill more situated. We all miss our friends and family a lot, but everyone here has been really friendly. That DOES NOT mean that you're off the hook on visiting though!!
