Playing in Puddles

What fun it is to be a kid! We went outside today on this unseasonably warm Fall, New England day (temps to reach 66-70!). We had some rain pass through yesterday so Zoe put on her froggy rain boots and headed for the puddles.

Funny Things Zoe Says/Does

8/13/08 - Zoe has three imaginary friends, Kevin, Macey (who is also a "real" friend) and Poopoo. She's had them for a while. She understands that they are "pretend" but lately they've been really a part of our family. We even had to buckle them in the car a few times.
5/15/08 - Zoe and I were walking together on a sidewalk and an old woman was coming in the opposite direction. The sidewalk was narrow and we all stopped to offer the other to pass. The old woman insisted we go. As we passed, I said, "Excuse us" and nodded in gratitude. Then, seizing the "teaching moment," I said to Zoe, "We say 'excuse me' whenever we pass by someone." In her own "teaching voice," Zoe responded, "And when we burp or toot." Ah, another proud mommy moment.
4/12/08 - Zoe started remindng us while we're driving, "You need to drive with two hands on the wheel." The funny thing is that niether of us have ever taught her that. It's something she either figured out herself or someone else told her.
Every once in a while Zoe will say, "I don't want Lily to grow up."
2/26/08 - My friend Megan who is about 7 months pregnant came over for dinner. Right after dinner Zoe asked her (with genuine concern), "Megan, is that a baby in your tummy or are you just really full?"
2/24/08 - "Mommy, when Pumpkin (the cat) dies, can we get a dog?"
