• Things Jerry Says #32 – Mummy is more important…

    So, it’s the long weekend that everyone is looking forward to! I have been so busy, I haven’t planned what to do with it yet.

  • the lion roars!

    This morning, while the husband is waking jerry up for school, the little kiddo refuses to get out of bed. and in a split second, he decided to be a lion and do a lion roar in an attempt to scare the husband away. hilarious. just where, do kids get these ideas into their heads? the quick-handed husband managed to capture it on video so i loaded it up on youtube. i think this was a “replay” version. hilarious. so, hear my little lion roar!
