Avery, playing in the rain while waiting for Corbin's bus. A friend offered to let us sit in her car to wait for the bus, but Avery wouldn't have any of that. She loved walking around with her umbrella in the "wain"

Reading in bed

I caught this cute moment the other day. Avery is starting to show interest in moving into a big kid bed. She likes to climb up on Corbin's bed and she'll say, "Sleep. Night-night." But, I don't think we'll move her out of the crib for a while. I'm not ready for that.

mow-hawk

Corbin is going through a mow-hawk phase. He insists on having a mow-hawk (usually pronounced mow-fog) every day. Except that he does not get to have one on Sunday. After lots of tears, we had to compromise and he gets to pick his hairdo every day but Sunday. Sunday is Daddy's day to fix Corbin's hair. I don't really blame him for loving his mow-hawk, when I was a kid I begged my mom to give me a moo-hawk. I just couldn't understand why she would be so mean and not cut my hair that way. 

Last night Corbin and I were going over the parts of a book:
Me: "What's this" (pointing at front cover)
Corbin: "The front cover"
Me: "What's this" (pointing at back cover)
Corbin: "The back cover"
Me: "What's this" (pointing at the spine)
Corbin: "The shin!"

And on August 24 Corbin said, "You know what my favorite foods are? Salt, and cauliflower!" Mmmmm...salt
