Thursday

It seemed like on Thursday there were a few things in a row that I just thought were so funny and wanted to record somewhere. So here ya go.

Rylee needed to go to her 15 month appointment (I know seriously!! When did she get to be 15 months!) Cade was not really acting tired and did not want to be napping. ( I think it is almost time to give up my, I mean his, naptime ;) ) But I pushed the issue and he finally went to sleep. This meant that I needed to wake him up in order to get to the appointment on time. Rylee and I went in there to wake him up. I put Rylee in his bed which usually he loves. At first he was understandably confused and annoyed. I thought it would wear off. Nope. He then insisted that we leave because he was not done napping. So I left the room with the lights off and the door open thinking we would just get up in a minute. He then insisted that I shut the door. I really thought he would take a few minutes to wake up then come out. I went back in and he and totally gone back to sleep. My 3 year old was wanting to sleep more. I thought it was so funny and so out of character for him. And a little early don't you think?

I think I need to subscribe to a car magazine. Seriously. At her check up and we had to wait a little longer than usual for her shots (double fun-waiting and shots). Cade saw the pile of magazines in the little room. He saw one with cars on the cover and asked to look through it. He looked through every single page and narrated it as he went along with wows and oooohhhhhs. If he accidentally turned a couple pages at a time he would go back and make sure he saw those pages too. And then when he finished that one he asked for another one. And did the same thing with a second car magazine. He was totally content. And no smutty advertisements! I was a little worried but it really was all car stuff. How boring. But he was totally into it. Loved seeing the race cars, convertibles, the engines, racetracks etc. So if grandparents need a Christmas idea.....

You know how as a mom you doing silly/embarrassing/out of character things sometimes just to keep your kids happy or to get through a situation? In this same appointment (remember we had lots if waiting) Rylee was putting her mouth up to the wall and making a funny noise. Then she would look to me so I would do the same thing. She would squeal and giggle. Then we would do it again-her, me, lots of squealing. As we were doing this Cade looks up from his car magazine and said, "Mom stop it. It is only funny when Rylee does it." Thanks Cade for pointing out the obvious. If only he knew all the times I did random funny things just to keep him happy.

Those were my thoughts for Thursday :)
