sometimes you just can't believe that their little brains click so fast. a couple days ago, thomas was watching a DVD and using the fast rewind button to watch one of his favorite scenes again and again. it was right before lunch and William was going to be home any minute.
Mommy: thomas, you know that is very hard on the DVD player when you do that. plus Daddy will be home soon and he gets really annoyed when you do that.
Thomas: when daddy comes home, I will not do it any more.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Here's another one from last night. They were having lots of fun playing toddler baseball right before bedtime. (i know, great "quiet down" activity dad!)
Daddy: ok thomas when the big hand gets to the 6, we are going to stop and go to bed.
Thomas: daddy, don't look at the clock!
---------------------------------------------------------------
We were both getting washed up one morning. Thomas decided for the first time, to try pooping by himself. he runs into our bathroom, onesie all unbuttoned, no underwear on.
Thomas: "mommy, daddy, I have a present for you! come look!"
He quickly darted out, bare butt flashing, back towards his bathroom.
I dashed after him saying: "Oh a present, how nice! did you go to the bathroom yourself?" (as fear of poop smears stabs my heart)
Thomas grandly gestures to the toilet and says:
"I went poo all by myself. you will be so proud of me!"
I couldn't believe how much he wanted us to be proud of him for pooping all by himself. of course i praised him profusely and then helped him wipe his butt.
can you believe that?? :)
