    Yesterday, Marshall was awarded a certificate of recognition at school for identifying that his classmate was beginning to choke on a cookie, then seeking help from the teacher. He’s such a good boy!

    Mid to high-20′s, three days this week. Previous record high was 11? Incredible. The windows at home are all open, and the laundry is on the line!

    Webkinz 

    Recently, Marshall has taken to the whole Webkinz phenomenon. For those who don’t know, these are plush toy animals that you buy that each come with their own unique code that allows you to ‘manage’ them online. By ‘manage’, I mean ‘feed’, play games with, interact with others, etc. all over the internet. Well yesterday, Marshall took it upon himself to bring a sheet of paper with columns that he had drawn, and a marker – to school. When he came home, he proudly announced that he had collected several of his friends’ ‘usernames’ for Webkinz World – which would allow him to invite them to his ‘Webkinz Party’. This kid is clearly thinking things through, and is rather enterprising. He will no doubt have some pretty strong ideas when he gets a little older…

      I would say he gets lots of good ideas from his parents who are both entrepreneurs

    Marshall just now; “Mommy! You turned the hot water on! What are you trying to do… burn your son’s hands?!”

    As official household diaper washer, I am thrilled that Ella put her first business in its place prior to her 2nd birthday. Very impressed!

    Yup! Boy! Marshall was right! (Others out there were not!)

      And now a name?

    • Rick 2:52 pm on February 3, 2012 Permalink

      Let’s not get ahead of ourselves! (Besides, I’m not sure we’ll be sharing our name ideas publically)

    • Lana 8:46 pm on February 4, 2012 Permalink

      Just saying- I know how hard it was to find the first name….now you need to find another:)
