Adventures in dining
A favorite place to go to a treat is the Colville Stree Patisserie. We don't get there often, but we will often follow a visit to Sweet Basil Pizzeria with dessert at Patisserie. J the elder loves macaroons. Who knew. Last time we were there, he proclaimed: "These macaroons are like hamburger with chocolate in the middle!"

lessons in human anatomy
Conversation overheard at bedtime between DH and J the elder:
J: Daddy, can I wear my penis to bed?
DH: (laughter barely contained) Why, yes you can! It doesn't come off.

what did you say?
A few months ago, our dog ate some chocolate covered almond and then proceeded to throw up said almonds. Multiple times. After cleaning up one of these messes, I told J the elder that he needed to stay away from that area of the rug, because there were chemicals on the floor.
A few evenings later, J looked at me very seriously and asked, "Mommy, are there still testicles on the floor?" Once I recovered from shock and figured out what he had meant, I was happy to reported that there were no longer testicles on the floor.

Adjusting to being an older brother
Sometime in April 2009, conversation had while waiting in the car for DH. J the elder is 3 years old.
J: You are my mommy.
Me: Yes, I am and I am little J's mommy too.
J: No, you are only my mommy.
Me: Who is little J's mommy?
J: Daddy.
J: You are my mommy.
Me: Yes, I am and I am little J's mommy too.
J: No, you are only my mommy.
Me: Who is little J's mommy?
J: Daddy.
sheltand whales
J the elder has a imaginary sister named Emily. I think he is disappointed we are not having more children and only has a brother. He was telling me about how she lived near Disneyland with her mom and dad, and her dad had a pet whale. "It's a litte whale, a teeny tiny whale, a Shetland whale."
I was glad I was driving at the time, I could smirk, swallow a laugh, and managed to hide it.

After J the elder INSISTED on riding the ferris wheel. He is 4. And generally rather cautious.
Dear Hubby: Oh, we're up really high, but it's okay, we are safe.
J: Yeah, mommy can't get us here.
By the way, he LOVED the ferris wheel.
