He's no David Copperfield, man!

At breakfast yesterday, Brodie was talking about being a grown up. He's going to get a license like Daddy so he can drive. I asked him what he's going to do when he grows up. "I'm gonna drink coffee and sleep in your bed." Well, that's going to be awkward.

I gave the girls avocado at lunch. It worked out well. Cate was not very receptive to it, so she had a little extra applesauce. Cailey, my veggie eater, had the extra avocado. I would have never thought to give them avocado had I not been doing the homemade baby food thing.

No bedtime bottle! Major milestone! I have been waiting for the day to come that I could have all 3 kids in bed by 8:00. Cate went right down. Cailey screamed bloody murder until I brought her back down. I gave her a little water and took her back to her crib about 10 minutes later. Both slept all night.

Random thought, here: Why the hell does David Blaine need a 2 hour television special to hold his breath for 9 minutes? I didn't watch any of it, but seriously, dude, what was the other 111 minutes about? "Here's how I trained to create the illusion of breath holding?" At MOST that should have been a 30 minute show. 9 minutes of alleged breath holding, 6 minutes of commercials, 2 minutes of credits, 5 minutes of pre, 5 minutes of post, 3 minutes of credits. Boom. Done. It's a wrap. By the way, isn't he a magician/illusionist? I don't think holding your breath is so magical. Shouldn't he be making crap disappear like Stealth Bombers and National monuments?!

Just be glad Brodie doesn't aspire to hold his breath for 9 minutes as a grownup! Then it would be hard for him to drink his coffee!

Yeah-he'd have to pee before the 9 minutes were up!
