three little pigs

Our friends Kim & Adrian visited last week along with their kids Mason & Arden. We all had a great time together and Finn & Mason even had a mini-slumber party in his room. Kim was telling the two boys the "Three Little Pigs" as their bedtime story last Friday and I'll try and relate it to you below because it is too funny not to pass along.

Kim got to the part about the third pig building a house out of bricks.
Finn: What about the mortar?
K: Hmm?
F: Did he use any mortar with the bricks?
K: Well yes, he did use mortar.
F: And what about the roof? Did he put on shingles?
K: Yes, he put on shingles.
F: Did he use a crane to get the shingles onto the roof? What kind of crane did he use?

And so on and so forth. Let this be a cautionary tale to anyone telling Finn a story--be prepared with your construction and truck references.

Not to ignore Tess, I also have to credit her with correcting me when I referred to Dizzy (on Bob the Builder) as a concrete mixer and she said, "No, Dizzy is a MORTAR mixer!" Big brother is teaching her well.
