Today marks a special day! There were two "I did it!" moments in our family...
1) Haydn managed to climb out of his crib, several times in fact. He doesn't do it nearly as graceful as Connor did but for a 15th month old it is impressive none the less. He was very proud of himself to describe it lightly! He climbs up just enough to get his waist on the edge and then does a nice somersault, head first, to the floor! I switched his crib around, the back is higher than the front (it's working for now), and we've told Connor he is no longer allowed to climb in and out of Haydn's crib (part of their morning playtime routine) which I think aided in Haydn's early ability to climb out.
2)For the past 2 months I've been working on a running goal for myself. I started a Couch Potato to 5K program (http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml) and I reached my goal for the first time today. I ran for 30 minutes straight or 3 miles(5K) straight! Wow! There was no way I could have done this at the beginning so this is an awesome feat for me! Now I just have to keep doing it to stay in shape! I feel great when I run! So anyways, this is my new hobby I am doing for myself!

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!"
Haydn: "I know, I a crazy boy!"
Funny Things Kids Say...
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.
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.

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...
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!"
