Eleanor's second official day off from school. We went to the central library to do some paperwork and then we found some books and movies to take home. Susie napped for 2.5 hours today which was great. I undercooked a chicken. Susie woke up - we went to the YMCA to drop off immunization info and then we did a driveby of Eleanor's summer camp which she'll be starting next week.
On the way we told each other jokes. This was the last one she told me:
"There were three people driving in a car, their names were Crap, Shutup and Mayor. Crap fell out the window so Mayor had to go after him. Then Shutup got pulled over by a police man and he asked him his name and he said 'shut up!' 'what's your name' 'shutup' 'what's your name' 'shutup' 'may I see your license' 'it went out the window after crap'" What?! She got in a little trouble for that one.
Then she asked me what the F word meant again. I told her she already knew (she asked me this like 2 days ago) and then I said "what does it mean" and she said the F word - the bad one and I agreed.
The other morning there was a grease stain on our driveway (hamburger grease). The were hundreds of ants feeding on the grease. I sent Eleanor out to the driveway early to wait for the bus. When I came out she immediately asked if ants went to heaven. I'm guessing she had just killed a bunch and was feeling either guilty or merely curious about the recently deceased ant souls.
Susie had fun at the library today. She kept taking toys and banging them on the glass separating the children's area from the rest of the library. I kept stopping her but as soon as I walked away she's watch me go and then grab a plastic corn cob and get right back to tapping.
That's about it for today. We read a bunch of books - it felt good to just relax and read and sit and play with the kids.
Elle watched Mars Needs Moms tonight - I didn't even watch it because I was on the phone with mom and cleaning, Brian came home halfway through and I think he probably watched more than I did - but wow what a sad sad movie. Based on Eleanor's description (and Brian's inevitable clarification) of a flashback scene in the movie I started crying and then Eleanor started crying all over again and it was ridiculous.
Anyway that's really it.
