Tara had this picture of Ava and her cousin on her blog. Isaiah loves to chew on Ava's hands, so I left a comment about how Ava must have tasty hands because babies seems to like to eat them, or something silly like that. Especially silly since the baby in the picture was MY SON! She came over today and I asked her who the baby was in the picture.In my defense, I still don't think it looks like him. Ha ha ha, I guess that's not much of a defense! What mother doesn't recognize her own baby? Apparently, this one.
The other funny story of the day happened tonight at bedtime. When I was playing around with Helaman getting his pajamas on, he grabbed my hand and asked what my wedding ring was. I told him that it was my wedding ring and it meant that I was married to daddy.
He got his feelings hurt, and said, "Then how am I going to marry you?" (He's been planning on that for a while now.) I told him I had some bad news about that, that because I had married daddy in the temple we would be married forever, so I wasn't going to be able to marry him. "Then who am I going to marry?" he asked with great concern.We started naming girls that he knows, and offering them as possible future brides. He responded with, "How about Greta." I said that wasn't going to work because she was his aunt, so he thought Avery would maybe be a good alternative. We named a couple of more girls, and then he snuggled up to me, laid his head on my shoulder, and said, "Or...how about, I will marry you?"
Who could resist such a proposal? Of course, I said o.k. :)
Sounds like Helaman is trying to keep it in the family :) He really does belong in our family, because he's already following in our footsteps.
