Everything wrong

Tonight while we were getting dinner ready, I was venting to Dan about my crazy day (school-related issues). Isaiah said, "Mommy, why are you mad? Did Daddy do everything wrong?" Dan and I both lost it. Kids.

I figured out a way to make my life easier...

Sam is always on the move and always hungry. So I decided I could make my life easier by getting one of those kitty self-feeders and filling it with Kix, Sam's favorite food. Maybe then he would have a chance of satisfying his appetite.

Another one...

Last night I had both boys in Isaiah's room, getting them ready for bed. Sam was dressed in his pj's and playing around the room. While I got Isaiah's pj's on, he was watching Sam and saying in a somewhat annoyed voice, "Sam's always taking crayons off my weasel!" Of course he meant 'easel.' I laughed and asked Isaiah if he knows what a weasel is. He didn't. I was tired from watching them all day, and just said, "It's like a squirrel." Isaiah laughed because he realized he said the wrong thing. Life with a three-year-old...

Three-year-old chatter

Isaiah woke up bouncing and hyper this morning, which isn't a bad thing. It just means all is right in his little world. He started chattering about something that made me laugh. It went something like this: "Mommy, have you seen a movie about Goya? He's a talking frog. It's a mommy and daddy movie. Have you seen it? I saw it online." Online? That's the first time I've heard him use that word. And there were no pauses for me to answer his questions. It had me laughing... =) And his non-stop talking continued all day long.

Kids are different

Tonight during the last few minutes of the Steeler game, Dan and I were making some noise, and that's putting it mildly. Two touchdowns in 24 seconds is enough to excite even the most marginal Steeler fan. Anyway, Sam was screaming excitedly right along with us, while Isaiah was covering his ears, scowling, and saying, "Daddy, that hurts my ears!" Dan raising his voice pretty much never happens except during exciting sporting events (Nascar included, ugh!), so Isaiah really didn't know what to do!
