Things he says

3/31/15

Upon hearing thunder: "what's that noise?!"

4/28/15

"I can jump easily off the couch!"

(How does he know how to use the word easily?!)

He uses "from" in place of "for" and I don't ever want him to stop!

"I have a kiss from you" (when giving a kiss)

"From me?" Pointing to himself.

5/6/15

"You look pretty"

(What?! This said while eating lunch, I could see him formulating a thought and was shocked when this came out. He said it so earnestly. Put a giant smile on my face.)

5/6/15

"Ikey, please stop pulling your fingers through my hair."

"Mommy, I have to, I love your hair."

7/2/15

"Momma?"

"Yeah?"

"I'm thinking about the angel fish. And the clown fish.'

'Momma? And frog & toad."

Long time no blog

I don't do blogging so well. I also don't do "write down all the amazing things your child says" so well. Perhaps I'll try to combo the two, we'll see how it works out. Here's a gem Travis texted me while he and Ikey were bath time talking:

Travis:  Ikey do you want a baby brother or baby sister?

Ikey: I want to have a baby in my belly.

Little dude has so much to say. And he's discovering rules and really loves to put ridiculous rules on us. This morning my arms were not in the right position as I lay down on the futon in his room (6:30 wake up call this fine Sunday).

"That's not how it works!" 

Some mornings he throws massive fits because dada opens his bedroom door instead of momma, and sometimes dada gets in trouble because he sits in "mommas chair" at the kitchen table. The rules are so arbitrary and meaningless, but they clearly have some meaning to him because he is very passionate about them. 

Two is a challenge in some ways but mostly it's so darn interesting to watch his brain develop so rapidly and to see what manifests as the most important thing in this moment, or today, or this week. 

Love bug

Big brother!
