Our Afternoons

April 11 2012

Here is the way most of this stay at home Momma's afternoons are spent. Outside after my little boys wake up from naps, in cars, in wagons, on tricycles. It is the life. Spending moments, soaking up their little smiles, and loving watching them both learn new things along the way.

Noah lately has been asking constantly to ride his "tri cycle" (the word is drawn out and very southern when he says it)

Here are some of his Noahism lately:

- He wakes up from naps these days yelling: "My eyes awake."

-"Dad, listen to me." (We are working on the interruption rule, and how that works when adults are talking. )

-"No, I don't want to." (To which I explain to him, that is not how obedience works, it doesn't matter if you want to or not)

-"Mom, I'll go see if Luke needs help." (he is so into helping his brother when Luke is pulling up on things or can't reach a toy, or whatever, Luke "needs" his brothers help...........this makes my heart happy.)

-He loves the mickey mouse Hot Dog Song, and dances and bounces all over the kitchen when it is on.

-While riding his tricycle, I asked him what he was thinking about, he replied, "This is great."

-Whoopsie Daisy (thanks to Gigi, he says this whenever appropriate)

-At Tjmaxx ( I have to take them with me when I try on clothes, in the dressing room, there is just no other option) I tried on a shirt, and asked Noah what did he think, he replied, "Mom, It's not cute."

- "Ahhhhh Home Sweet Home"

-He tells Daddy, "Your a sweet boy"

-And my favorite, (a convo btw Drew and Noah) Drew was on the phone and Noah needed his attention,

N: "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy"

D: ( in a hurried voice) "Noah wait just a minute and i will be finished."

N: "Daddy, you be nice to me." (Noah's feelings were clearly hurt)

D: "oh, buddy I am sorry, Will you forgive me?"

N: (with out any hesitation) "Dad, It's no problem."

I Just love those two

This was one afternoon as I was finishing my bible study, and we where waiting for Noah to wake up.

He has the life, just sitting in his car waiting on a gerber puff to be put in his mouth. Just like a little bird.
