Fly on the Wall

Austin built a spaceship out of Legos.  He had carried it around with him all day. 

A:  “Mom.  Is Wocket from Wittle Eintines” (Translation:  “It’s Rocket from Little Einsteins”
Me: “Rocket?  Oh, cool.”
A:  “You sing it song?”
Me:  “We’re going on a trip in our favorite rocketship, sailing through the skies, Little Einsteins…”
A: “I sing you now.” “Mmm…mmmmm…mmmmmm.mm…rocketship…..mmmmmm…Eintines.”
Me:  “Good job.  Look at Rocket fly!  He can go to the moon.  He can go to the clouds.  He can go to Saturn.  Where else can he go?”
A: “He’s going to Target.” 
Me:  “Target?  That’s where he wants to fly to?”
A: “Yeah.  Rocket want to go Target!” 

Living the Dream!

Fly On The Wall

Preface:  We live in a wonderful community with a lake and boats for the residents to take out.  My mother-in-law lives in the same community and takes the kids out (Ty mostly) with her. 

On the way home from scouts this week: 

Ty:  “Hey mom, when the boat docks open, can I see if I can go out on a sailboat with Grandma?”
Em:  “I wanna go too!”
Me:  “Well, we can all go.  We all went last summer and had fun, or you guys could take turns with Grandma.”
Ty:  “Well, I get to go, because I know more about boats than she does.”
Me:  “Ty, you know more because you went more with Grandma last summer, but she can go too.”
Ty:  “Mom, I know more about boats, because I’ve been playing ‘Lego Pirates of the Caribbean’ a lot.”

Yep, he said it! 

Eavesdropping on the Kids….

Emma was on her hands and knees on the floor pretending she was an animal (which drives Tyson absolutely CRAZY). 

Tyson:  “EMMMMMA!  Stop!  You are NOT a dog!”

Emma:  “Well, you’re right Tyson.  I’m Not a dog.  I’m a horse!” 

She continued on………
