Sacred?

While walking on the bike path, we see a low cinder block wall

Raviv: Mommy, can I walk on the Kotel?

What if it were a sale on babies?

Bil: If you haven't had the baby by Saturday would you mind if I went to the outlets in Wrenthem
Me: YES! You aren't going an hour and a half away! What if I go into labor?
Bil: But Penguin is having a 50-70% off sale
Me: Well, I'm having a baby.

Such a Yid.

In the car heading to a birthday party brunch for one of Raviv's friends. Raviv was very concerned about the menu.

Raviv: Cake?
Me: Yes, I think there will be cake.
Raviv: Cookies?
Me: Maybe
Raviv: Bagels?
Me: Probably
Raviv: Salmon?
Me: I don't know.

Volvo drivers

A friend recently posted a link to the site "Things Republicans Hate." The #3 thing a republicans hate is a Volvo. My husband loves his Volvo, and fits the description of who drives one to a T:

Volvos can often be found outside of organic grocery stores, French restaurants and Apple stores. Volvo drivers are usually women with short haircuts or men with long haircuts who may or may not be wearing thick-framed eyeglasses.

Ugh.

While in the third trimester of pregnancy:

Me: I'm getting cankles
Bil: What are cankles?
Me: When your legs run into your feet, and there is no ankle definition.
Bil: All the more reason to wear your Uggs.

Like Father Like Son

Now that Raviv is beginning to talk more, I realize how similar he and Bil are. Now that Bil is not the only humorous one in the house, I will start including conversations with my son.

While at the library, Raviv had a total meltdown.

Raviv (frantic and crying in that way only a 2 year old can pull off): I want to go! I want to go!
Me: We'll go home in a minute
Raviv: No! I want to go!
Me: Where do you want to go?
Raviv: Shopping!
