I'm right because I'm the Mom.

Marco kept putting his feet up on the coffee table. I asked him to stop, but he tipped the table onto the ground. I said, "That's why we don't put our feet on the table!" And he said, "But you do it Mama!" (Blast.)

Jeff asked Marco not to touch something in my purse. Marco asked why. Jeff said, "Because it's not yours." Marco exclaimed, "But it's not yours either Dada! That's Mama's! Don't touch it." (Hmm... good point.)

Landscaping Project - Day One.
I come home and I'm giddy with the progress.

Jeff: I mean, it's okay, it's ditches and rocks.
Me: I know! Isn't it gorgeous?

You be the judge.

I'm an awesome Mom, part 4

Last week while we were off, Marco and I headed down to the park and played among a sea of children, Moms and nannies. There's a whole world out there going on while I'm at work. Who knew?

We played until lunchtime when all the Moms and nannies pulled out healthy nutritious sack lunches for their kids. Damn. I brought raisins. Marco said, "I'm hungry Mama." I said, "Do you want raisins?" And he said, "Uh, can we go to the Burrito Store?"

My kid totally gets me.

Yes, Marco got to eat his cereal while he watching morning cartoons.

Good thing I'm not home all the time, Marco could turn out to be a spoiled brat.

As a treat during Marco's week off, we took an evening walk to check out the new frozen yogurt place on Lakeshore. It was met to rave reviews by Marco and Avery. Avery even shared some bites with his lady. Yum...
