Poppy Has A Girlfriend (this post is subtitled the day I almost pushed a 5yr old girl down)

Okay, I consider myself an adult, most of the time. I worry about Poppy's future, I do. I've asked him in the past what kind of job he wants when he grows up and he's always said 'none, I'm going to live with you'. This has both scared the daylights out of me and gave me a smug satisfaction.
Well today I picked him up from pre-school and he ran up to me like always and held my hand. All of the sudden this little girl saunters up and announces to me that she is his girlfriend. So, in my most adult voice I ask the little hussy what her name is... she tells me and then states that when they grow up she's going to marry him. At this point I'm seeing stars so I ask her how they are going to live? She says he'll have a job and they'll have a house. Poppy just grins and looks uncomfortable at the both of us.
Oh, then she hugged him... WHILE I was holding his hand! Internal mantra 'I'm an adult, I'm an adult'
Once I get him in the car, I asked him what he wants to be when he grows up and without hesitation he says he wants to be 'a Matt'. I didn't know what that was so I asked him to explain. He says he he wants to be just like Daddy. So I say, 'you want to work with computers?' He says 'yeah, work with computers and give out treats.'
I think this girlfriend has her work cut out for her.


Had to add a picture of us, cause I'm the mommy and he's my baby.

Christmas 2010

This year Christmas was spent in Mississippi at Grammy and Grampy Kuzinski's house. We were there with Greg and Becca and their kiddo's Samuel and Elizabeth. The kids had a ball (as you can tell from the pictures) I think a good time was had by all, we spent a lot of time catching up because we don't see enough of each other and we even watched a few home movies of when the boys were younger. Most of these pictures were taken by Becca and her awesome new camera. It takes pictures rapidly which is really needed with little kids. I swear sometimes it took 20 pictures just to get everyone looking in the same direction. Thanks to Grammy and Grampy K for putting up with us, it was wonderful.

He LOVED this present!

Taking a break in opening presents to lay down on her new pillow pet (a unicorn from Grammy and Grampy)

Her new baby who is hungry all the time. She calls her 'Tinker' or 'Sister'

Poppy showing off his 'Stinky' the trash truck. It's loud and annoying so naturally he loves it!

The cousins, they all have such funny personalities!
