Banana Smoothie

Put in blender:

about 2 frozen organic bananas, chunked
1 fresh, raw egg from pastured hen
2.5 ml organic extra-virgin cold pressed coconut oil
raw honey to taste (I used almost 2 TBPs, could have used a lot less)
two ice cubes
splash of raw milk (for GAPS, use SCD yogurt)

Blend.

Add raw milk until the texture is pleasant.

This was delicious. Cinnamon would have made it even better. Nut butter would have made it easier to process the sugars, I think.

Comparisons

If Faelan is like Tigger,
Mommy is like Winnie-thePooh,
Daddy is like Rabbit,
Grandma Marcia is like Piglet,
G-ma is like Christopher Robin,
Uncle Jeremy Batman is like Grover,
Grandad is like a robot with a monster,
and Papa Leon is like a Grover.

"And then, my feet will change color. Zzzzzzzz."

We were listening to Michael Medved

...and Faelan piped up from the bathroom in a decisive voice, "The point is, what do I know about it?"

A break from gymnastics

Faelan is looking at a wooden jumping puppet which dangles from a string of fish-shaped cat toys.

F: What does he got- does he have on his head?
A: He has a crown on his head.
F: What does that mean?
A: I think that means he is a king.
F: Is he the king of his baby?
A: I don't know, is he?
F: Yes.
A: Does that mean that Daddy is the king of you?
F: Um, yep.
A: So, if daddies are kings of their babies, does that mean that mommies are queens of their babies?
F: Yes. Look, I got a fish! I'm a friend of the honey nut. I'm a friend of the rabbit queen. I'm a badger.
A: Who talked to you about honey nuts?
F: A badger in a bear book.
A: Oh, right, "Bear Snores On," of course.
F: Look out, here I come! [jumps from coffee table to couch, somersaulting as he lands]

Rhyming all the time

He sings them to himself. "Doffer, noffer, naffer, daffer, daffodil."

He greets us with them: "Daddy Baddy! G-ma B-ma!"

He uses them in sentences: "It's my bottom pottom!"

He greeted me one day with "Mommy Tommy Bommy Wommy Pommy, can I have this?"
