Knock Knock...

We've officially reached a new level.

Alec is telling knock knock jokes.

He crawled into our bed this morning and said, "Let's play a game!"

"What game, Alec?"

He responded, "The knock knock game."

"Ok...how does that work?"

"Like this...Knock knock!"

"Who's there?" I said.

"Banana!"

"Banana who?"

"Banana car!" (followed by rampant giggling)

This continued for at least 15 minutes with other versions of my son's preschool stand up routine. None of them made sense, at least not in the adult mind. But that didn't stop us from giggling right along with him!

Here's a few snapshots from the last few weeks...

Trick-or-treating. In case you're wondering, Cece is supposed to be a puppy. It's actually the costume that I had made for Alec when he was about 18 months old, and I tried to make it girly with the pink bows. Not sure that approach worked but I figured this was the last year before she'll insist on a princess costume!!! I also assumed it would be cold outside and that the fleece costume would keep her warm. It was 70 degrees...go figure. The hood came off after the first 3 houses. Then she started coughing and it was the end of Halloween for Cece - but at least she made it down our short block.

Alec and I stayed out until the official end of trick or treating, even after dark. His expression in this pic says it all.

Cece in her "big girl" bed. No more crib for this little chickie!

After her first night in her new bed...sideways, but still in it!

Alec reading to his Cece. Aww :-)
