I have two funny stories from this morning, and it's only 9 am! First, Jesse was sitting on the counter beside me while I prepared his cereal. He still eats the infant rice cereal, mixed with applesauce. Anyway, I measured out the cereal into a bowl and went to pour milk in it. Before I had the chance, Jesse had grabbed the spoon and shovelled a bunch into his mouth. I expected a funny face from him, but he looks at me with a grin and says "mmmmmm." I can't believe that dry, powdered rice cereal tastes all that great, but I guess if you are hungry enough anything works! The other day we were at the store and Jesse was holding the chocolate bar we had bought while we drove home. I should know by now that he will chew through anything to get to food (ziplock bags, saran wrap, bread bags - once we had a chunk of bread missing in the middle of the loaf...), so, he had chewed a hole in the wrapper of the chocolate bar. Once he got to the inside, after every little nibble, he would say this huge "mmmmmmm". It was so cute and comical that it was hard to keep a straight face.

Okay, second story...I was cleaning up after breakfast when the phone rang. I didn't have time to answer it before the voicemail picked up. So, I went back to the kitchen. A minute later, Jesse walks in and hands me the phone. Our phone is on the very back of our computer desk. He had climbed up in the chair, reached all the way back there (past the pens, camera, paper clips and everything else he loves to play with) and grabbed the phone. I thought it was pretty funny. I guess the thought I should have answered it!

Anyway, I need to go and get us ready to head to the zoo for a date with my MOPS friends.
