Aaron brought the kids some handheld GPS things they were getting rid of at work. Mason was panning around the world and it stopped moving ...
Mason: Hey! It's not moving! I think I am at the end of the world.
Me: Oh really?
Mason: Ya! I think it's where they make chocolate.

The kids and I were talking about taking "pictures with our minds" when we want to remember something forever. Jack was making some cute squeals and the kids were getting such a kick out of it, so I told them to "click" it into their memories. We talked about the "mind pictures" we have from Disney, Hawaii, and when Jack was born. I asked them if Jack was bigger or smaller than they expected when they saw him for the first time (they both said smaller), and if he was cuter or not as cute as they expected. Of course they both said cuter, but then Mason said that Jack is STILL cuter than he thought, in fact he is "a thousand cuter than he thought!"

The kids wanted Daddy to be a roller coaster so he let them ride on him while he crawled around. Eventually he broke down (laid flat on the ground). The kids were still sitting on him and wanted to know how to fix the roller coaster.
Out of the blue, "are we supposed to say abracadabra?"
Daddy: (no reply).
Kids: "ABRACADABRA!"
Daddy then turned into a boy and told the kids it was time to get undressed for bath.
Kids: "Will you help me take off my shirt, roller coaster boy?"
