Mommy: Stellan, why are you so cute?
Stellan: Because God made me that way.
I could just eat him up.

This Past Weekend
We just spent a short but busy weekend back in Windsor in order to sell the family farm as well as all of the farm equipment and stuff. It was a successful weekend and, overall, the boys were very well behaved.
During breakfast on Tuesday I asked Jameson what was his favourite part of the whole weekend. His first response was the plane ride. I asked again and questioned him as to which activity was his favourtie. A huge smile spread across his face and he happily replied, "Auntie Allison's". Isn't it great to have an auntie like that?

Observations Made by Stellan
We were driving home the other day when Stellan made an observation.
"Mommy, that bush is still green. God hasn't painted it yet."
How cute is that?

Age
Jameson is obsessed with age. He often asks me my age as well as constantly mentioning his age, Stellan's age and how old they will be next year. When we were at Deda and Nana's house on Friday night Jameson mentioned that Mommy was 31 and Daddy was 30. Nana then asked him how old she (Nana) was. His simple reply, "Old". Yes, I did laugh and out loud too. It was funny. :)
Our Friends
With an empty house this weekend the mice (yes, plural) had free reign of our domain. Unfortunately for them the domain had been planted with traps baited with delicious peanut butter. Well, two of them fell for it.
I went to the basement to check the traps this afternoon and noticed that they said "caught". (These are new traps where the mouse crawls into the trap and it swings shut. You never have to look at the mouse. The indicator changes and you simply pick it up and throw it out.) Since it was James who had set them and placed them out I didn't know if they looked differently from when he originally put them in the basement. I waited until he got home and then mentioned that he should check the traps. He sure did check them. He took them outside and smashed them with a hammer to see if they actually worked. Well, they did. We caught two mice, one in each trap. The whole point of these new traps is so you never have to see the mouse. Smashing it with a hammer totally defeats that purpose.
