Co-op

I really enjoyed reading Gunjan's post about her co-op day, so I thought I would do it, too! It was nice to hear a slightly more thorough version of my kid's day than "I got wet! I fell down! I cried!"
So I was parent helper today, the highlight of which is apparently Emma getting to "call names". We had strawberry yogurt, pumpkin muffins, and apple juice for snack. Everyone was great about throwing their trash away, rinsing their cups out, and stacking them on the trays. Caleb even asked if he could dump his yogurt out and rinse that cup out, too..
We got two outside times today, both of which were with the Parents' Day Out kids (Kim's class). Most of it was spent zooming around on the tricycles and toddler trucks, or playing in the dirt, or fighting over swings. I posted some pictures here.
My favorite quote was when Laney said "My poop smells like garbanzo beans. Do you like garbanzo beans?"
Kids are awesome...

Omg. My kid talks about poop all the time! Ack! We're working on saving the poop talk for the bathroom, but to no avail. How do they know that poop is funny?!

Emma knows it's funny because we laugh at her when she talks about it... we try not to, but it's just one of those things...
By the way Maggie, Laney taught Emma to say "No way, Jose!"... thanks for that one... :)

Ruby has taken to saying "My daddy has a penis" when there is a lull in large group conversations. And if she gets a chance, she'll add, "and I have a 'gina" So when you figure out how to limit topics to private zones, let us know!
