Quotes
April 15, 2013
Liam: What are we doing today?
Me: Well, I have to go downtown to the credit union this morning, but they don't open until 9:30.
Liam: Oh, you don't want to be late to the credit reunion.
April 15, 2013
Liam: Kyla is the Gingerbread Man.
Me: She's the Gingerbread Man? Why do you say that?
Liam: Because she can run really fast.
(Run, run as fast as you can, you can't catch me. I'm the Gingerbread Man.)
Liam: "What kind of juice is this?"
Me: "Apple kiwi strawberry."
Liam: "It's very kiwi-ish."
Me: "Do you like it?"
Liam: "Yeah, it's very delicious."
(This quote is funnier when you remember that Liam is only three.)
Liam: "My feet are scared."
Liam: "When are we going truck-or-treating?"
Me: "That's what we're doing right now."
Liam: "No, we're getting candy from people's houses."
Kyla to Moira:
Did you know that I hate you more than you hate me?

Hey Robyn,
If that outfit that we got him for Christmas doesn't fit, I got it at Costco. Big boy!!
(I'd take it back for ya too)
Thanks! It does fit. He's been wearing 6 month clothes and they fit fine. It's mostly the onesies that I have a hard time fitting him into. He's wide in the torso so they tend to fit too snuggly.
PS The outfit looks so cute on him! I always wanted girls because there are lots of cute clothes for them, but I'm finding out that it can be just as fun to dress up a boy. I'm not into the real "boy" stuff, but there are still some nice boy clothes out there. Maybe the gender of the child doesn't really matter. I think it's the fact that everything is so small. What is it about "small" that makes us go "Ahh"? Maybe there is something innate in all of us that makes us want to protect and nurture the small. Is that why so many girl toys are so little, like Polly Pocket and Littlest Pet Shop? Are we trying to connect with that instinct when girls are young so that they will be good mothers? What about boys? Shouldn't we do the same thing with them so they will be good fathers? Maybe it's not as important with them because they are the traditional bread winners. With societal roles changing so fast, those types of rules should be obsolete. I think that as cultures and societies change, there is still that instinct that women are the caregivers and men are the providers. That's probably how we've survived as a species for so long.
My point is, you don't have to take the outfit back, but thanks anyway!
