I had to write these down, as I don't ever want to forget how cute
the boys are at their current ages: Calan, 4 and Finn and Patrick, 2.5.
Recent quotes:
"I
want to go to little tiny 'nastics" said Finn when we were getting
Calan ready for his gymnastics class. Or as Calan says, "big boy
gymnastics".
Calan received a Target giftcard for his
birthday and we went to spend it on Thursday. The toys he chose were 2
baby toys for aunt Abbe's baby and all he wanted for himself was a pair
of ninja turtle socks. So darn sweet!
Finn is being
potty trained and wearing underwear these days (and doing just great!).
When I asked Patrick if he wanted to be next and get some big boy
underwear, his response was flatly "No." Stubborn little thing!
Patrick
is beyond clever and articulate. Just this morning (Monday), as we
were driving to preschool, while stopped at a red light and upon seeing
the cars in the right lane turning right, Patrick noted: "you can go,
mommy. The cars are moving." He's 2.5 years old. I had to explain
about turning right on red to a 2 year old. Wow.
Finn's favorite thing to say is:
"I'm mommy's angel." And " I was in mommy's tummy" Can we say mama's
boy anyone? The youngest (even by a mere 2 minutes) sure does know how
to steal his mama's heart!
