make overs...
Obviously, when we gave Claire a 'makeup' kit for Christmas we took out things like eye shadow and blush. We left in the nail polish (only to be done with Momma) and lip gloss. This did not stop Claire from being delighted...and creative.
I came down stairs to find this:
It was a close to failing attempt at not laughing out loud right there. Not that I don't want her to think she's funny, but I didn't want to encourage her to do it to me. Matthew gladly wore it all day.

space...does it exists in a queen sized bed with a preggo woman who needs a body pillow or two, to get up to pee 4 or 5 times, and to rotate sides every 30 minutes to prevent limbs from falling asleep every night?
weeeeeell, my hubby is pretty patient with me. it might have a little to do with the fact that he is dead to the world 2 secs after his head touches the pillow till morning, but still. to avoid a second body pillow in our bed, nick often allows me to use him...
this led to a very interesting discussion tonight when he told me that he feels like he is always clinging to the edge of the bed searching desperately for those extrafew inches of uninhabited space.
but it doesn't stop there, no...he mentioned that there have been a few nights when he wakes to my semi concious 'fluffing'. where I pull on him, flatten, or fluff him into the shape I need in order to sleep.

copy cat...
Matthew is hilarious. He has this wind up to running. He'll back up several paces to prepare to run and then TAKE OFF, hips a swayin'. Krista (MIL) noticed that he must have gotten it from watching football. The QB always backs up after he catches the ball. That's totally Matthew. He's so funny. he wants to do everything Claire does. Include get out of the gate and run into the street (she doesn't do the running in the street part), or climb the bunk beds and then yell at me to help him down (she also doesn't do the yelling part). Best is when she acts like a cat, so does he.

text me...
I've lost all of my contacts from my phone. If you want me to have your number, please text me your name ;)
made it...
Everything has to finish with an "it".
Matthew now has an entire vocabulary that consists of:
Made it
Want it
Have it
Close it
Eat it
etc.
My favorite is, after saying his prayer, he no longer says "Amen". He says, "Made It".

hot...
The family was in the car, running late. We decided that McD's chicken nuggets and some free waters were essential. I gave a box of them to Claire who was to share them with Matthew when they cooled down. Nick and I started eating ours when they were hotter than the kids to handle, but soon, Claire was saying:
"They're not hot anymore, Mom!"
Deb: "Oh, good. Will you share some with Matthew?"
Claire: "Sure." She passes some to Matthew.
About 10 minutes later, it was clear that they were done. I took the box from Claire and looked to see how many they ate. There were about three left in there, but they were partially chewed and soggy.
Deb: "Did Matthew give you back some?"
Claire: "No."
Deb: "Oh, okay. Did you eat some and then decide you didn't want any?"
Claire: "No."
Deb: "Why are they all soggy?"
Claire: "I poured water on them because they were hot."
Deb: "Oh...."
obviously.

extra teachers...
Claire: Hi Mom! I love you.
Mom: Hi Claire. You are so crazy. I love you, too.
Claire: That's cause I'm from heaven.
I'm pretty sure she has had coaching on this phrase. This is how she answers almost everything right now.
