Things I Learned Today

1. The only thing that feels better than finally watching my football team win a game is watching my 2-year-old celebrate wildly right along with me.

2. If I stare at an old guy with just the right amount of contempt after he throws a piece of paper out his car window, he might actually get out of his car, pick up the garbage and throw it in a nearby trash can.

3. It’s extremely difficult to find a pretend kitchen for a preschooler that isn’t pink, purple or otherwise clearly designated for a “girl.”

4. I can’t put my finger on why it makes me uncomfortable to buy my son a pink toy, but it does.

5. The sound of my two little guys giggling at each other while taking their first-ever bath together can fill me with such joy I’ll still be smiling hours later and already anticipating tomorrow’s bath time.

How cute! I think Kmart had a pretty gender neutral kitchen, and toys r us here does as well.

Love the bath pic!

Jen - Thanks. :) His smile definitely makes us smile. His brother's smile was always a big open-mouthed grin, but Evan's got the smirk down pat.
