20 Days!

OK, so no pictures for this one yet, but just a couple of random things. Today Nick and I have 20 days until we go to visit Nana, Pops, and everyone in Oklahoma (we are super excited). And to keep Nick from asking me 20 times a day if we are leaving for OK, I thought of a genius idea. I made a calender, it starts today (July 1st) and goes until the day we leave (July 20th) and every night before he goes to bed he gets to cross of one day so that he knows how long we have before we leave. I'm calling it our "Countdown to Nana & Pops", hopefully it goes well, Nick is excited about it.

Just a quick story for Andrea and Jackson (I don't know if Jim told you this the other day). Nicholas loves everyone in Oklahoma, especially the girls and Baby Q- I'm not sure if we will ever get him to call Quentin anything but "Baby Q". Since our last trip to visit everyone, Nick has been stuck on Uncle Jackson, at least once a day he tells me that Uncle Jackson is nice, or that he is Lilly and Baby Q's daddy, etc. Well the other night we had ordered pizza for dinner and after Nick had finished what was on his plate, he said he wanted another piece and when he didn't eat it I told him that I was going to put it back if he didn't eat it. He threw a fit (crying, yelling, etc.) because he was saving it for Uncle Jackson and was worried that Jackson wouldn't have any pizza and would be hungry. It took me 30 minutes to convince him that Aunt Andrea would feed Uncle Jackson and that we didn't need to save him any pizza.

I just thought you would laugh at that, next time it happens I'm not sure if I'll be able to convince Nick that we don't have to save food for anyone ;) Love you guys.
