Where's Ethiopia??

I had the weirdest conversation with some girls last week!

I went to my friend's new student orientation for her school and they played some games to get to know eachother better. Even though I wasn't new, they allowed me to join in. One of the games was Two Truths and a Lie. One person tells two truths and  a lie about themselves and everyone else has to guess which is the lie. So these were my truths and lie.

1) I'm homeschooled
2) I play soccer
3) I've been to Ethiopia

(Hey, do you know which is the lie??)

I got a variety of answers. Most of the kids thought it was the Ethiopia part. After they answered the correct one, I got some very strange questions like...

1) Where's Ethiopia?
     to which another girl answered:
2) Isn't it near Africa?

I answered through the noise that it was IN Africa, but I don't know whether they heard me. I just thought it was so funny that they had no idea where Ethiopia was. It's not like it's small like..say..Togo, and it's known around the world for it's coffee and stuff.

Hope you are having an AMAZING day!

Update on Belly Boy!

It's hard to believe, but Belly Boy has been home for about 5 months!

His newest thing now is possesion. Not the usual, "MINE!" from babies, but pointing to things and saying who they belong to. He'll point to the car and say, "Daddy!" and point to the van and say, "Du!" for  Bob, who is 14 and never drives the van. Not sure why he thinks that!!

He also recently spits! When he's mad at you or is just being goofy, he spits. Not very fun!! :-)

Belly Boy is very busy tattling, bossing, and chasing us around. As Mom says, the world revolves around him!

He is saying SO many words. And repeats everything! It is SO much fun!

He also likes owies and reenacting how they happened. He still gets "sad" about his week-old owies. And still wants kisses for them!

So that's what's up with this ADORABLE little guy!
