Keegan moments from this week.

Sunday at Erika's:
K:Mom these grapes have seeds
Me:That's okay.
K:They're freaking me out.

Tuesday during swimming at school he asked to get out and use the potty.

Wednesday morning:
K:Happy birthday mommy!
Me: Thank you lovey!
Walks a few paces and then turns back
K: Will there be cake?

Thursday while helping me with dinner:
He asked me what a utensil was and I told him. The he asked me if it was daddy's. I couldn't figure it out until I realized when I said "tongs," he heard "Tom's."

This morning his teacher described him as 2 1/2 going on 4.

Awww, that's so cute! I wish I could just leave a recorder on nonstop when Scottie talks. I've thought of carrying a little notebook around to write down stuff he says but I always forget that too.

"Will there be cake?"
A kid after my own heart.

Glad your birthday was special. And Keegan's talking up a storm! Ah, what I have to look forward to!

Sounds just like my Nate--we get the "this is freaking me out" comment a lot, and last Wednesday, after attending an appetizer-only party with his dad, he asked, "Daddy, what kind of party has no cake??"
