Should I continue.........

Hmmm, Let me first start with this thought.  There are few persons whom I've directed to get automatic emails when I post.  I have received great feedback on my posts, yet I have no followers??????  Sometimes I just don't understand my family & friends but I wouldn't trade them for the world.  Maybe if I cut them off from the auto emails they will get curious and come find me.  Until then I guess I'll just keep talking to myself!

Bedtime continues to be a struggle with our little one. Last night he told my hubby that he couldn't go to bed because the ants would crawl up and get him.  You would think that being a little boy he would like bugs, but oh no, he is just the opposite.  He runs from them. 

Recently he has started having growing pains so we must put the "magic wash cloth" on his leg to minimize the pain.  I'm still really not sure if it truly hurts or if this is just another excuse for him to wonder down the hall because

Mom, I need to tell you something

Either way the "plain jane wash cloth" that we have been laying on his leg is doing the trick.

A few nights ago we went thru the same routine of trying anything to get out of bed and not go to sleep.  I explained to him that he was not allowed to get out of bed anymore unless he needed to potty or it was an emergency.  I continued on with what I was doing and a few minutes later I hear him talking.  I listened & the hubby went to see what he was doing.  Sitting in his bed,  waving his body from side to side, singing his first and last name.  He just looked at him and smiled.


While playing Cover Orange the other night he was yawning.  Of course, I asked him if he was tired.  His response

No, Mom. My mouth is just getting bigger, like yours

I'm not sure where these statements are derived from but they sure are entertaining.  Funny thing is had someone else made that statement to me I might have been offended. I really need to set my camera up on a tripod with a shutter release so capture these silly faces that are made with these comments. 

We contemplated enrolling him in rec soccer this past month and decided that he should probably go thru a tots kicking class first.  Unfortunately the closest class available until he turns 3 1/2 is 20+ miles away from our home.  So we are still in debate on whether or not to join.  Any who, the hubby says to him last night

can you hurry up and turn 4 so we can play some soccer or better yet can you pretend that your 4?", in which Alex responds "shore, I can."  The hubby says "so when they ask how old you are what are you going to say" Alex responds "this many" (holding up 3 fingers)

You probably had to of been there, but it was another priceless moment! 

Well since I've been rambling to myself for 20 minutes I suppose I should go do something productive!  Til next time!
