Almost 3

My little E will soon be 3!  I'm having a hard time with this, because I'm pretty sure he was just an eensy little baby a couple days ago....

In the meantime, however, he is growing and getting smarter by the minute.  Lets go through some E-speak:

"I don't member" - when asked a question
"Mom, you cute."
"In the garjub?"  (garbage)
"Knock knock, mom"  who's there? "eyeball in the car" .... I know - hilarious.
"Knock knock, mom"  who's therr?  "well....don't member."
"knock knock, mom"  who's there?....okay I'll spare you.
Are you a big boy, E? - "Almost"
"I not mister...I E.M.R."
 
I can't even begin to tell you how great he speaks, the vocabulary he has, nor how capable he is!

Some of his greatness:  Officially potty trained (a few months ago to be honest); can count (with fault) to 20 ish; likes to sing Wonderpets theme song (if you don't know it, spare yourself); absolutely LOVES to dance, and has pretty stinkin good rythm at that; can't get enough of his cars and trains and blocks; He is a monkey in general.

I know I am missing stuff, but it's not that important.  He is fantastic (despite throwing fits), loving (despite picking on small animals), and snuggly (despite only holding still for 3 minutes).  I absolutely ADORE him (despite that he won't stay little!).

Such a big little boy! And even if he does tend to recycle jokes, there is no denying he has a great sense of humor!

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Caught Bare Bottomed.

Yesterday I went to retrieve my kids from playing in the backyard with the neighbors....When I round the corner I behold my 5 year old daughter with her shorts baring her bottom to the 6 year old neighbor boy. Me:  M!  E!  It is time to go home. now! M:  E did it too! (while sheepishly pulling her shorts back up and E snaps his head around to look at me with big eyes and "O" mouth) WHY?

back to school

We had a great trip up to Idaho for a family reunion (J's side of the family) after a short camping trip with some of my family in Iowa (not family from Iowa, just where we met up). We've been pretty busy and summer has disappeared. It didn't help that I had summer classes,and only 3 weeks off. We got to do some rough scouting in Colorado, to see where we might likely live when we finally move. Quite a few good stories, but I split them up. When we were in Colorado Springs we decided to go to Seven Falls - where they told us the Mountain elevator is broken, so they will take $1 off our admissions. We agreed, not minding 185 steps....wait, what did J just agree to? So we went to climb said stairs, which were small, and steep and seemed to go on forever; about half way up - the first set of stairs - M gets tired of climbing (we saw this coming,and I didn't blame her, I was tired too!) so I take E from J and J picks up M (he's stronger after all). We push ourselves th...
