So Big

 
Posted by Picasa

Where did my baby go? It seems like only yesterday that I was playing "How big is Zander? So Big". Now his is so big. He is such a funny little guy. He is constantly saying the funniest things. The other morning when I woke him up, before he even opened his eyes, he said "put me back in the tool box, I am a screwdriver."
I always mean to write them down, but I am usually doing something and forget.
He seems to be adjusting well at school. They say that he is talking alot. That is a real shocker. They are trying to teach him that the teachers can't always talk to him, so they have told him to go and talk to a friend and if the friend doesn't want to talk he has stuffed animals to talk to. I guess we have to work on taking turns in conversation. He has been the center of our world and he is going to have to learn that there are other people in the world too.

Collector's Item

 
 
Who would have ever thought that an old dirty big wheel was worth any money? On Saturday, we had a yard sale at CiCi's house. Along with all of Zander's clothes and baby toys, we put our some items from Mom's basement. There were two big wheels that Jenn and I rode to death when we were little. Zander had a blast riding them and all of the kids that came to the yard sale also rode them. I decided to look them up on Ebay to see if they were worth any money. Apparently, they are a hot collector's item right now. They do not make them anymore but you can still get new ones on Ebay. They had several that looked liked ours, dirty, stickers missing, no tread on the tires. They were going for over $50. I was surprised. Well, we saved one for the kids to ride and let the other one go to Goodwill. I guess I won't be getting rich off of Ebay anytime soon giving items away. At least I did ask money for most of my items that day, right Cici?!
