Ryan Says

Ryan is hilarious.  Here are a few things he has said to make us laugh lately:

I asked Ryan if he wanted to get a shirt on when daddy was reading to him.

Ryan : No, I OK.  Daddy is hot for me.

Interpretation:  Daddy is keeping me warm.

Ryan went on a bike ride with Brett.  When they come home, Ryan told me that his bike ride was fun, but he fell "with style".

When he wears his favorite buzz pjs he likes to push the button on his shirt and say "come in star command.  Do you copy?"

Is it possible to freeze time?  I would like to do that.  Except for when he throw tantrums. I'll just fast forward those.

PLAYdough

Ryan had a friend over the other day.  It was rainy, so I had them play with some new playdough I had just bought.  10 colors.  Brand new. 

They started with two colors.  I gave them instructions to just put the colors together softly so they won't stick together. 

But for some reason both of the couldn't handle it and sqashed the playdough together. 

I was freaking out inside my head. 

 If you squash them, then they won't be their own color... we won't have 10 colors, we will have one. 

But then I saw how much fun they were having. 

So I just let go and let them go at it.

I was the one making things hard.

It was a good lesson.

Just FYI - a fun inside idea that I got from " 101 things to do with your kids" is to roll up foil into balls and throw it into something.  I had the boys roll the foil, too.  It kept them entertained for 30 minutes! 

 That is a long time for a little boy!
