Family Alive

Just some cute remembrances of my sweeties.

Josiah says “Hop-copter” for helicopter… “Hawold the hop-copter” is Thomas’ friend, Harold the Helicopter.

He likes to say, “I want somethin’ hungry,” at which time he’ll make his way to the fridge, open it and browse, saying, “Hmm…”

Yesterday I was resting my head on the couch with a headache, and he said, “I wanna come snuggle wif you.”  He crawled up on the couch, clambored over me, and sprawled himself on me, with his head on my chest.  I reminded him how he liked to do this when he was little and how much I enjoyed it, he said, “This makes me so-o-o happy.”  Ahh… me too, sweet boy.  Me too.

As he was riding his car down the hall way, he stopped suddenly and said, “There’s a princess in my way!”

And a big milestone… today he pooped on the potty!  Woohoo!  This is so exciting to me because it’s the first step to no more diapers in this house!  (2-25-09, 2 years, 7 1/2 months old)

And after Analise asked if she could have a piece of her Valentine’s chocolate after naptime and I said yes…”Mommy, you’re the best.”  Aw.  I was happy to hear that, and sure that it didn’t have anything to do with the chocolate.  She went on…”And Daddy’s our hero.”  Aw, so very sweet!  I love that she sees him that way!  She went on…”Because he kills bugs.”  I’m still laughing.  He is indeed our hero, and not just for the good bug-killing 🙂
