Winter Driving

So having to have a title for your entries...NO, today I will just trick blogger into thinking this is a thought out rational entry when in fact it's just stuff all mixing together in my brain.

Yesterday I took Emma to Mcdonalds. The story starts out this way... Abbreviated version
we're in walmart
she see's the bright red "M" at the end of the aisle
points and asks for "ph-why's"

(I feel like i'm writing a screen play.)

How does she know big fluorescent M means fries? I don't take her there, really, like maybe every other month.... hmmmm those daddy outings are seeming suspicious

i say, yes that's mcdonalds
she says, e i e i o?
i stop and put it together and say "of course genius!"
sure eieio!

so now, brilliant, she actually has a vocabulary for mcdonalads and every time we go to the co-op for groceries, what's across the street but eieio's. and what does she want "ph-why's and a hm-booger"

so yesterday to celebrate the first snowstorm of the year we went to eieios at lunch,emma screamed when i took her into the windstorm pelting us with icy hard rain. and we ate lunch together. It was like being in love, staring at this person across from you, studying their face and thinking they are the most beautiful thing you've ever seen. I promise she's just as cute as your kid. It was a moment lunch that was well worth the $3.60 spent.

anyway, gotta go. I'll write about my winter driving another time

Simeon also knows what "fen fys" are and although we rarely frequent fast food restaurants, he recognizes all of them! Like if we're driving down the road all of a sudden he starts saying "fen fys!" and sure enough when I look up there is a McD's or KFC or some other place. It's quite funny.

Everytime we drive by the "big yellow M", Aila starts yelling

HA-BOO-GOO!

Translation: Hamburger!

She also shouts this when we see Wal-Mart...since when we go with Oma each week to Walmart...we always get A Haboogoo at McDonalds.
