I just wanted to write down a few of the funny things Benjamin has said or done lately. He is so quick witted which makes for a lot of giggles and a lot of creative discipline!
* Over Christmas I told my sister I couldn't help with her dog because I wasn't a "dog person". So a few week later when I asked Benjamin to help his brother learn to walk he told me "No, I can't.....I'm not a walking person."
* he calls the onion rings from Burger King "ugly rings"
* our new bedroom routine consists of me saying "I love you to....." and he says "the moon and back, with all my heart, and soooo much" And I say, "nope, only a little bit" and he says "only a lot!" and I say "yep, only a lot!"
* anytime we go shopping at thrift stores he asks if we can "find some guys" He's always hoping for a new Kung Fu panda figure or a new bug from Bug's Life
* anytime he wants to do something fun it is always "after naptime...." or "if I take a really good nap then we can....." Apparently he thinks the secret to getting Mommy to do what he wants is to take a really long nap. And quite frankly, he may be right, ha!
* one day he had already had his afternoon snack but when Jonah was eating his crackers, he asked for some. I told him no, we would be having dinner soon. He asked and asked and I kept saying no, you are not going to have another snack. He got quiet and then said, "Crackers are food. Crackers are food, not a snack. Can I have some food?" Oh mercy.
* At the furniture store I told Ben not to climb on the rocks by the pond. I told him the sign said "Please do not let children climb rocks" He thought for a second then said, "I know! I can read. It says children you can climb the rocks. That means we can."
* A few days ago he told me, "I'm four. I'm 4 years old. Going on 8." (He's 3)
* He went potty a few days ago and I heard some strange electronic sounds coming from the bathroom. I went in and found this...
