The 1st Boy found an empty sample size shampoo bottle. He filled it with water and told Daddy and me that the bottle was filled with "Sam's [named has been changed] Good-Time Spritzer. It will make you 10 years younger and make you strong enough to do anything you want--except fly."
He's been carrying his Good-Time Spritzer around for about a month. His brother and sister were happy to get a few drops on the head.
Today though, after explaining the magnificent properties of his potion he admitted, "It's really just a hoax. That means it doesn't really work." That's too bad--I could really use some of his Good-Time Spritzer.

Back in the Saddle
The Daughter started school and the First Son will start next Wednesday. After dropping the Daughter off I felt really sad and missed her. But after a while, I noticed how much I got done. I must say that it is really nice to be back on a schedule again. I can clean up breakfast at 8 am and be done until after lunch. In the summer, breakfast seemed to take aaaaallllllll morning.
I would send pictures of how adorable she looks in her new school clothes, but big surprise, the 2nd boy has broken my camera. Fortunately, he is not all naughty. He loves snuggles, hugs, kisses, books, and his big wheel. He likes pretending that he is getting ready to go to school and work. His latest phrase is "that's too simple." I don't think it means what he thinks it means. If he doesn't want to wear a particular pair of pants he claims that it is because they are "too simple".
Today the 1st Boy went to his kindergarten screening. He did very well and seemed comfortable with his teacher. To check for comprehension his teacher read him a story that happened to have a rabbit in it. The Boy took a break from answering questions to tell his own story about our pet rabbit saga--The Life and Death of Bunny Paul. He is so funny. Yesterday he asked me what euclidian means.

Orphelia Violet???
Yesterday I had my ultrasound and found out that I might possibly probably be having a girl. Her (?) foot was in the way so we didn't get a clear shot. I am having another ultrasound in 3 weeks so we can get a more developed shot of the heart and face. We will also take another peek to see it's an Orphelia or an Oliver.
Based on past experience--it's a girl. The daughter modestly kept her legs together during the ultrasound and we didn't find out that she was a girl until I was 7 months along. But the boys, during their ultrasounds, made their genders obvious.
And, according to the ultrasound--my due date it January 19th. What do you think of that Dad?
