Mike and Henry caught a big pike on Saturday afternoon - I have a picture of it on my other camera, but I've been too busy (actually, lazy) to upload the pic. We also went on a picnic on Sunday and on Monday we went to the Memorial Day parade and planted our vegetable garden. Georgie loved the marching bands at the parade - he kept saying, "Look! They tappin' their toes! They tappin' their toes!" Then he tried to run out into the street and join them. No joke. He was nearly trampled by the Eau Claire County Democrats, who were behind the band. (My father-in-law will probably want to insert a joke here.) :)
CSA box update: None of us like bok choi. We tried. Unfortunately our box this week contained bok choi again, so if there are any bok choi lovers out there jonesing for a bok choi fix, I can hook you up.
The boys' potty talk has reached new levels - I had no idea the joy it brings to young boys to say the words "poop" and "butt." Both words are now banned from the house, prompting Henry to make signs with the words "poop" and "but" with a cross through them to hang up in the house. I have to give him points for his ability to figure out how to spell those words on his own as I refused to tell them how they were spelled. We are so proud. :)
Georgie's 2nd birthday is less than a week away!
Also, I have been slacking lately on the blog because I have been reading David Sedaris's book When You Are Engulfed In Flames, and he is just so funny that every time I think about starting a blog entry it just doesn't seem funny or witty enough. If you want a good laugh, I would highly recommend Sedaris - just don't read it in public or with other people in the room. I find myself laughing out loud at his writing and Mike thinks I'm crazy.

We finally got to see the infamous "poop" card Henry signed for Grandma Dora. It got delivered to the neighbor by accident, so we were afraid you had decided not to send it after all. When GD got it from the neighbor several days later, we were so happy. Mom, Mel, GD, the girls and I had a laugh playing the "where's the poop" game. We Think we got it figured out:)

Angela,
I love David Sedaris. My favorite story is "6 to 8 Black Men" (a 'Santa' story) in his book Holidays on Ice...especially funny to listen to his work on CD. Mary Ann Stanger
Hey Ang - this made me laugh because Mia's favorite words are pee, poop and butt. She makes up songs with them regularly. Picture her singing these songs will shaking her booty. She thinks she is quite hilarious. I made the mistake of telling them if a bad word is in a song on the radio, I didn't care if they sang it. I meant stupid and dumb...they took that to mean EVERYTHING. Jen
