Yucky Octopus

Today we had such a fun-packed day! Daddy went to Uncle Robbie's house to dig holes and Mommy took you guys to Sarasota to the farmer's market.

At Whole Foods Market, we stopped by the seafood section, and they had a whole cooked octopus from Japan in the display case for $18.99 a pound. We stood there looking Mommy: gushing/lusting/admiring....You Boys: gawking/gasping at the thing. Nathan, even though you had a poopy diaper, you didn't want to leave and just stood there in front of the display case staring at the octopus.

We also went to your favorite toy store and got a big bus and a really super cool submarine that goes under water with a push of a button. Lunch was a happy meal at McDonalds and the afternoon was filled with massive thunder ("God's farting too loud!" "Why is he farting so much?" "Is God crying?" "I think God needs to drink some water")

Trey came over and we played with the submarine in the bathtub for about an hour. You boys also played with the huge Playmobil train set; ran around the house chasing each other; played with marbles and had a midnight snack of fried eggs. We watched Noddy and Fireman Sam on TV.

Tonight, during our usual bed time routine, I first laid with Andrew, rubbed his back and we recapped the day.

"What's your favorite part of the day Andrew?"

"When we got the sunk-a-rine and then played with it. And when Trey came over to our house. And when we played trains. And when I played a computer game."

"Well, which one was your favorite?"

"All of 'em"

Then, it was Nathan's turn, "Nathan, what's your favorite part of the day?"

"Ummmmm......ummmm.....the yucky octopus"

"yucky? Mommy loves octopus! Octopus yummy!"

"No. french fries are yummy. Octopus yucky."

So...out of the whole entire day of fun filled adventures, the yucky octopus was Nathan's favorite part of the day!
