We went to my Dad's last weekend to let the kids catch-up with Grandpa! We had a great relaxing time. We spent some time at the lake near my Dad's house first...We all tried out the kayak! It was pretty fun.We let the kids go swimming in a little kiddy pool as well and then jumped on the trampoline. The boys found it great fun to be all wrapped up in their towels and be bounced around together. They were laughing hysterically! Connor is ALL boy! He loves any game you can play with a ball. He must have really enjoyed playing baseball with Grandpa because he announced to me today that he was so excited that he was going to play on a baseball team tomorrow. Oh boy...I better start looking for a team quick, he didn't give me much notice. I can't wait to see what this boys aspirations will be.
Dropping off Connor at school today... Me: I love you C: I love you too Me: Love you more C: No, I love you most Me: I love you more than there are stars in the sky. Connor pauses slightly to think of something bigger. C: I love you more than all our blessings.
We must be so blessed. We really, are it's just nice to know he realizes it.
Potty training is fun...
Mom: "Tristan are you sure you don't have to go poopy?"
Tristan : "No, my poop is still playing in my bum."
Connor: "Mom, why do you like Country music?"
Mom: "I like the sound and I like the stories in the songs."
Connor: "Dad, why do you like city music?"
Snickering from Mom and Dad...
Home Teachers were over and about to give a message and I grabbed Haydn to try to get him to hold still. Quietly, I told him to listen about how they call missionaries. His reply was, "WITH THE PHONE!" said with the biggest tone of "duh, I already know this Mom" ever.
Haydn: "Mom, I can't go to sleep, Jedi's don't get tired!" Me: "But they need their rest so they can save everyone." Haydn: "But if I go to sleep my Jedi power will break!"
Haydn: "Mom, do you want a hug?" Me: "Yeah, I love hugs!" Haydn: "Then you have to turn on a show for me and I'll give you a hug. Mom, do you like hugs?" Me: "Yeah, I do like hugs." Haydn: "Then turn on a show."
Connor, reading a pepper container, says, "Spices from the four corners of the earth? Mom the earth isn't square, how can there be four corners?" "Ground black pepper? Is the ground black?"
Connor had hurt Haydn earlier and when Haydn remembered it he said... Haydn very sternly to Connor: "You say sorry again okay!" Connor: "Are you the boss?" Haydn still stern:"No I am not! I'm HAYDN!"
Haydn: "When I grow up I gonna be a baby elephant!"
Connor: quotes about his best friend Holly from school... "Mom, Holly and I love each other." "She's so cute when she smiles." "I wrote Holly three notes and two of them said, 'I love you!'" "I'm gonna marry Holly!" Dad:"Does she know that?" Connor:"Yeah I asked her and she said okay!"
Mom: "Haydn what are you doing?" Haydn: (hushed voice)"I hiding." Mom: "Why?" Haydn: (thinks about it) "I poopy!" Potty Training NOT going so well!
Connor: "Mom, did you know the ice cream in OUR ice cream cones is the best because I taste your love in them!"
Haydn: "Yes SIR!" maybe, "Yes Sure!"
Connor: "It was so sticky...like...as sticky as packing tape!"
