After our brief stint of 'summer' in the middle of March, things have cooled off quite a bit. But that's okay because it is always nice to cosy up with a book to read with your stuffed animals. We like to frequent the library to keep our reading materials fresh, and to hit up the story time as well. Despite our best efforts to bring new and exciting books home, Jude somehow manages to bring home the same books - trucks, trucks, trucks anything about trucks. The book in the picture is a very dry, but beautifully illustrated, alphabet book about construction equipment. *sigh* I'll just keep trying to warm him up to some other topics as well. I was successful with "The Doorbell Rang" by Pat Hutchins, but then I wanted to ring the authors neck after the 1 millionth reading of it in a row. Oh, well, at least it wasn't "h is for horizontal borer, q is for quad axle lowbed"...

Jude Speak

Jude's talking has increased a lot lately. This has led to some interesting converations. Here is one example.

Jude: What was that noise?

Me: The noise you just made with your mouth?

Jude: Yeah, from my mouth. I farted in my mouth!

Me: Actually Jude, that's called a burp.

Jude: Oh, 'scuse me.
