Sioux Falls, Here We Come!

Kids and I went to Sioux Falls with my folks yesterday. Mom drove her car with the kids and Dad and I rode together to Brookings. We lunched with Allen and then we rode went to Sioux Falls. David hardly ever leaves both of his shoes on and it's a sure bet that at least the right shoe and sock will come off. Well, he made it to Sioux Falls with both shoes and socks on but that's where it ended. Both shoes and socks came off and....lo and behold, there was sock lint stuck to his toes. I guess he must not have eaten as well at lunch as I thought he did, or else the lint appeared more appetizing to him than me, because he ate it!

Later, Dad got out to look at a trailer, so I let David out of his car seat so he could move around ("drive"). It was a beautiful day, so the sunroof was open. David crawled up on the armrest and stuck his head out the roof-which he thought was pretty cool. We did too, until he showed his hand to Grandma and said, "peanutbutter". He somehow managed to get some grease from the sunroof mechanism, similar in color to peanutbutter, on his fingers. That got us moving, 'cause who wants "peanutbutter" smeared all over the inside of the car?!?!? Kassy, I learned, loves playing "peek-a-boo" and is tickelish all over! Her little giggles make me laugh, which makes her laugh some more. Everywhere we go people oohh and awww over her and tell me she is so beautiful-and she is! It's fun to watch her personality develop. She really watches David and I'm just waiting to see which of his stunts she tries to get away with first!
