blame shifting already

I just put Ethan in his room for his nap. He started yelling for me a few minutes later, so I went in and fixed a few of his complaints. As I was tucking him in again I smelled something, so I asked "Ethan, did you go poo poo?" He answered me, "yeah, but it's ok mom. It was your fault."

I have no idea what he meant by that but it totally caught my funny bone and I've been laughing out loud ever since.

And I posted this funny exchange on Facebook, but thought I'd put it here also so I can document. Yesterday morning as I was cleaning and trying to get his clothes on him, I yelled downstairs to Ethan, "Ethan, do you have undies on?". He yells back, "Um, no. Wait, let me check. Oh, I do!". That one had me laughing for the rest of the day.

It's still sticky

There are some things that Ethan cannot let go of. This morning as we were driving along our conversation went something along these lines:
E: mom. This is sticky.
Me: I look back and see that he is touching the buckle to his car seat. "Oh is the buckle sticky?"
E: yeah. It's really sticky.
Me: well, when we get there I'll get a napkin and wipe it up.
E: mom, can you feel it? It's sticky.
Me: I know it is, but I can't reach back there while I'm driving. Can you wait until we get there for me to clean it up?
E: mom, can you touch it? It's sticky.
Me: no, I can't touch it. I can't reach.
E: it's sticky.
Me: I know it is and as soon as we get there ill wipe it up.
E: ok... It's still sticky.

the TREE

We are thoroughly getting into the christmas spirit in our house! Ethan loves having the tree up. Little stinker won't even look at the camera unless I say, "Make a silly face". 

Museum trip pt 2

Children's museum trip

We had a blast at the children's museum today!

He makes me laugh

A few weeks ago while Steve was out of town, Ethan and I were being lazy one morning, snuggling and watching Mickey before getting up and in with our day. Out if the blue he says to me, "mom, I want hot coffee". I guess I didn't move fast enough; he looked at me for a while and then said "I'll wait right here".

So after I got up and made breakfast and coffee I gave him some. He downed it and asked for more. This child will drink anything. Eating us a totally different story :)

And a couple of funny conversations from last night. Ethan has a bad cold and was up sick most of the night. I guess at one point Steve went in to his room and Ethan said to him "dad, I threw up". Steve didn't see anything in the dark so he asked "where?" Ethan waved his arms around the room and whined "EVERYWHERE!"

After that I decided to sleep in his room with him. At one point I really had thought that he fell back asleep. He had been quiet for probably 20 minutes and his breathing started to even out. Then I hear, "what does throw up start with, Mommy?" "A T", I answered. He got super excited and said "a T just like T-T-Thomas!"

He was awake from 1-a little after 4 coughing like crazy. I really hope he gets a good nap and has a better night tonight. We sure had some interesting conversations during that time. He also repeatedly asked me what pigs ate. He was never quite satisfied with my answers. Stinker :)
