My Sweet Boys

Things I want to remember...

Nathan (age 4yrs 4mo): Mom, when I grow up I'm not going to get married.

Me: Oh, what are you going to do?

Nathan: I'm going to drive a garbage truck and be an ice cream seller. I'll be busy.

Kyle (age 6yrs 8mo) made a game. He cut out the track and wrote directions.

Nathan Loves Daddy

Nathan and I were in Wal-Mart this weekend. Father's Day is nearing and there were trophies out. Nathan saw one of the trophies and ran over to it. Here is our conversation:
N: "Mom, look a trophy!"
M: "Yes, put it back."
N: "What does it say?"
M: "It says, 'Best Dad Ever'"
N: "I have the best dad ever! Dad need this!"
We, of course, got Dad the trophy and Nathan couldn't wait to give it to him!

Kyle makes dinner!

Last night Kyle made dinner for himself and Nathan almost by himself! It was tortilla pizza. All I did was open and season the tomato sauce and put the pan in the oven!
Kyle is 6.

Nathan at 3.5 & Kyle at 6

Nathan is 3.5 years old and calls pennies circus money because the Union shield on the back looks like a circus tent to him! He calls dalmatians fire truck dogs. His favorite story is "Jack and the Beanstalk." When he asks me for a snack he asks for it by shape....eg "I want a cookie that is a circle." "Can I have a snack shaped like a door?" It took me a while, but this is Club crackers!

Kyle's birthday was yesterday. He has been asking since Christmas, "How many days until my birthday?" He was very excited! Kyle had a great birthday and enjoyed every aspect of the day! This morning he almost cried because it wasn't his birthday anymore and he has to wait 365 days until his next birthday.
