dreams

Mama Sue and I dressed Jessie this morning. I asked Jessie if she had
any dreams last night, and she replied No.

She usually dreams about Brady, and I asked. She again said No!

I asked if Brady was still her boyfriend. She said No!

I asked why, and she said, "He pick his nose!"

Today is Baby Crockett's birthday! Holly is NPO (nothing by mouth)
after 4am, so she got up and ate busgetti at 3am. Jessie heard and
joined her, then joined us both for the rest of the night.

Our little angel napping

Jessie is making me "breakfast" in her kitchen. She says it is soup. I asked what kind. It is HOT soup.

Had to be proud of my little girl on Sunday. We were watching the
Titans game, as I was lying on the couch, and Jessie was sitting in
the big recliner. I turned to her and said, "Do you like watching
football with Daddy?" She replied, "I wanna watch BASEBALL!"

I said, "That's my GIRL!" Unfortunately, Comcast doesn't deliver the
goods very well. There was no baseball on. Sunday afternoon. Late in
the season. Pennant chases. Good grief.

This may have been one of those moments when "you had to be there" to
understand. But I thought I'd tell it since Holly and I will read this
again at some point and get a laugh.

On our way home from worship Sunday night, I had stopped at Publix to
get something. It took me well longer than expected. As I drove away,
I was trying to tell Holly what had happened. Jessie started saying,
"Quidet. Quidet, Daddy! QUIDET!"

Holly told her that Daddy was talking, let him finish his story. She
said, "Quidet, Mommy! Quidet!"

On and on this went, until it got absolutely funny, because the faster
and louder I tried to get the story out, the faster and louder Jessie
would yell, "QUIDET! QUIDET! QUIDET! QUIDET! QUIDET! QUIDET! QUIDET!"

Maybe you had to be there, but Holly and I almost got choked laughing so hard.

Daddy Jim kept Jessie at home for the past couple of days. He left for
Huntingdon a couple of hours ago, with a glazed look on his face, and
about 5 pounds lighter.

Today, he detected a messy diaper--from a distance. He told her,
"Let's go change your diaper!"

She ran over to her coupe, jumped in, and said, " I can't. I'm in my car."

Everybody at church now knows that, during the Lord's Supper, "Daddy's
funny!!" Even though I was doing nothing but breathing.

Krystal burgers

"It's YUCKY!" said Jessie, after taking her first Krystal bite. She
went on to eat 3 of them.

Jessie fah down!

Holly and I got a call today from Daycare that Jessie had fallen and hit her lip. They were worried that her teeth had gone all the way through and punctured the outer skin. I was able to leave work and go check her out. I think the table did the outside damage, and the teeth did the inside damage, so I didn't take her for any plastic surgery.

So, we went to the park and rode my bike/her trailer for 2 or 3 hours, even into downtown Franklin. Wish I'd had my wallet with me when I passed Baskin Robbins! We swung a lot. We threw rocks. We climbed up the slide and down. We ran around, and generally had a good time.

Mommy is taking care of Jessie now, so that Daddy could return to work and finish the things he couldn't get done before leaving to go get Jessie. Thank you, Mommy!
