Beets? Oh Hell No.

Well,  we tried beets last night.   Oh the horror!   Because our children are so advanced (cough)... I opened a can of beets, cut them up in  bite size pieces and VIOLA!  eat them - with a little sweet potato on the side.  Fail fail fail.....    As we are feeding the babies - my wonderful husband continues to comment "maybe you should have put these in the food processor" "what about some sugar???"  "maybe they are too cold"   I have to think to myself  " self, okay, count to ten....   12345678910...   breathe in and breathe out"   I reply: "honey, maybe beets are just NASTY?  and no one on the planet likes them!?!?!"   My husband is immediately offended, because he LOOOOOOOOVES beets.  (of freakin' course he does)....  AUGH... 


So - being the insanely awesome mother that I am, after the beets, I feed the children condolence cookies :)  I have horrible Jewish guilt....  That went over amazing.   Resulting in an immediate BATH:

Mary
Pia
Sam
???   Tante A is holding his picture hostage for it is too terrible  ???
(thank you Tante A - big cookie kisses to you)


In the midst of all this commotion, dad has decided to play his new favorite game with the babies:  HOT PAD CLAPPER.  This games is played by taking two innocent hot pads and (guess what?) clapping them together.  It just fascinates the babies to no end.   SERIOUSLY?   I kid you not:


On a lighter note:  It was Dr. Suess day in Kindergarten and our little Maya has been added as a star on the Kindergarten class blog:  http://kindergartengeneralstudies.blogspot.com/   (I am unsure who taught her to smile for pictures - but it looks like she is in some serious pain...)  Anyway:  The teacher sent me an email to ask if she could put Maya there because Maya had the best quote of all times:  She told the teacher "I don't know why I was born with Dr. Seuss hair"    funny.....

And as for our mathematician, Paige, she sent me this picture from math class yesterday:

her caption:  "it's the numbers 1 through 427 haha - I'm so bored - but I am in math class so technically I'm working with numbers, right? "           oy !  vey !   

I think I covered everything.  Once Tante A releases the picture of "the boy" - will update :)

Love to all!
Zoltan OUT.
