gum girl

Sarah loves gum. She begs for it at the grocery store. She asks for it all the time. She would chew it all day long if I let her. She even recently wrote a letter begging a certain aunt and uncle to buy and send her some gum. They came through on that, by the way. So she is in gum heaven with some Hubba Bubba. While at the play last night, she was getting tired at about 9:45, so I suggested she put a piece of gum in her mouth to keep her from falling asleep. It worked like a charm. Until this morning when she woke up about 7:45. I told her to come and sit by me and talk to me. She told me she had to throw her gum away first. Ewwww. The gum that she had apparently had in her mouth all night long. For 10 hours. Ewwww.

Bryn is also obsessed with gum. I got sick of finding gum stuck to her clothes, getting it out of her hair, and watching her pull it out of her mouth and put it back in a thousand times with her grubby little fingers, so we're encouraging Tic Tacs these days.

p.s. you guys should be glad you didn't come for the fair- totally raining today.

Gum is delicious. It's reasonable to assume that the longer you keep it in, the better it is - right?! :) Sarah's a smartie pants - she knows what's good!

It's great to catch up with you guys a little and finally read blogs again. I can't believe little Zach is 2 already! I swear he was just born. Your kiddos are getting so big. They're so cute!!! Good posting!
