half birthdays

We do a little tiny celebration for half-birthdays (which my husband thinks is nuts, by the way!). For Liam's we made ice cream sundaes, and today for Audrey's she got to go to Haggen and pick out an ice cream snack. She thoughtfully took her brother's preferences into account when making her selection and they each picked out one of those tiny containers of Ben & Jerry's. We're walking back to the car - she's skipping along swinging her bag of goodies - and loudly exclaims, "Now let's get home and get this ice cream in our bellies and then into the toilet!"

Lovely.
