Quirky updates

I just had to sprint upstairs (time 8:15 pm) and calm a crying and upset Ajax who was insisting there was a ghost under his bed.  I gave him a hug, dried his cheeks and together we checked under his bed.  No ghosts but several tractors.   I then had to position his dragon next to him to protect him through the night.  He said his dragon comes to life at night and breaths fire.   He also said that his moose also comes to life at night and turns into a real moose who throws all ghosts out the window.

On another funny note, Ajax loves all songs having to do with tractors.  That of course limits the pool to country songs.  Lately his favorite song has been “John Deere Green.”  Here is how Ajax sings it – John Deere Green!  Biddy Bo Bow Sher-lise!  In a hot summer….  This morning Dave and I finally located this elusive song – it goes – John Deere Green – Billy Bob loves Sherlise…  How cute is that?  We plan on putting together a play list of songs for him… a country playlist.

When I picked up Noomi from daycare the teacher was saying that she knows there’s trouble when its silent.   When you don’t hear her.  Today during a quiet period Noomi rearranged the cribs, one of which had a sleeping toddler in it.  Apparently she pushed it about 3 feet against the wall.   She will be a danger when she starts walking.  Right now she is still holding onto your hands, but she is picking up the pace and speeds all around the place while yelling.  She is also now saying – cup, “what’s that?”, tractor and Ajax brother!  It’s darn cute.
