Crazy Things Kids Do

As you may know I have two littles.  Currently my oldest is about to turn 3 in June.  He is thoughtful and loving.  He looks after his little brother and is crazy smart.

 

However he also does crazy things that make me wonder about him... then I remember he is just about to turn 3, not 25.

• "Mommy I used my pee like paint. Here here and here. It is all dry now and like new."  Said after finger painting with pee all over this bedroom... we are debating removing the training from his room, even if he is great about getting up to use it in the middle of the night.
• "I don't know."  The answer he gave his father when a few days after ^^ he put is head in the potty and liked his pee.
• "Will the spider be in there?"  This is what he asked me this weekend when going into a farmer's market we went to in the fall to buy pumpkins.  In the fall they were decorated for Halloween.
• "Mommy you said a bad word!  You said hate.  That is a bad word."  I was schooled by his last night in the care because I did say hate.... then he schooled his dad 2 min later for saying stupid.... my little sponge. 
• One of the neighbor kids jump the fence the other day and came over to the boys.  I told them to say their names.  Little Little doesn't talk clearly yet, so Big says "I Holden, and this is Connor James, he my brother."  He put his arm around his brother and I almost cried on the spot.
• Also.... 9 nights out of 10 my big guy sleeps on his floor not his bed.
  

This all happened in the last week!  So I am going to have start writing these things down because they crack me up.  He also says the most random but true things.  He remembers everything and will pull it out and throw it back at you all the time. 

My other little is 19 months.  He is also loving, but bull headed in a way that the first one was not.  He will yell and stomp his feet when he doesn't get his way, and doesn't really care about being told no. 

He deals with a lot.  He has had teeth marks for the big one on his arm for a week recently.  Good thing it happened at Daycare as I would have lost it on the big..... that is a big no no.  Little deals with his big brother being rough and mean sometimes.  He also gets loving attention from his brother.  He will call for Aldoe (Holden) in the morning before Mommy or Daddy sometimes and big walks in and says "Hi Connor, I right here."  I enjoy the love they show each other already.  I know someday Little with be able to beat the snot out of big as he is already almost the same weight and only a couple inches shorter with only 16 months between them.  Little takes after me and is full of fight and wants what he wants period.

• "Marmollow"  This is how little asks for a marshmallow and it so cute you pretty have to say yes.
• He dances to Barney's I love you song and runs over to hug you and kiss you when the song says to.
• If you say no he screams like you cut off his arm.
• He hands you his plate when he is done eating.... and says done... so cute.
• He loves the "weeee" aka the slide at our house.
• He will plug his nose and tell you he is stinky when he needs a change.  (potty training soon)
• He loves to play with the little girl next door but totally grabbed her butt this past weekend.

So these kids are so cute and so full of life.  It takes a lot to keep up with them but we do it.  It means we ignore some items that should be done and we play with them or take them on hike, but I think that is ok.  They are only little once and this is the time we need to enjoy.

Until next time!
Much love,
