Thankful Thursday

This week I am thankful for the way Bryson talks! I love it! It is so fun to watch his expressions as he is trying to explain something to us. He is starting to talk in great detail now but sometimes he can't figure out a word to describe something so he acts it out.

The boys have been asking him to repeat a word that he says and I couldn't figure out why. I wasn't sure if it was his facial expression or just the way he said it.

"Bryson...say broken!"

He would say it and they would laugh. They were getting so tickled their eyes were tearing up. I hid and watched to see what was going on. Then I heard one tell the other what it sounded like. I would have never figured it out if I had not heard them say it, but it sounds like he is saying a bad word. And to a 3rd and 6th grader, that is the funniest thing in the world. Boy humor. So I put a stop to that real quick.

My favorite thing he does now is when he wants the boys to play with them and they are watching T.V. and ignoring him. "Bane! Baynen! Pay wiff me!" He walks up, turns off the T.V., and then stands and watches them. They start hollering for him to turn it back on, and of course, he stands there, throws his head back and laughs at them. It can be very entertaining.

Some other things he says now are:

Weed-eed-eater......that' when daddy uses the weed eater. It's like he is a scratched record and gets stuck when he says it.

Weedo.......weirdo (gotta love the influence of older brothers.)

"I like Ci'mon lattes too mommy!".....that is what he tells me when we go by Starbucks, as he bobs his head up and down trying to convince me to stop because he likes Cinnamon Dolce Lattes.

"Dats Hanna Tanna mommy! I lytch Hanna Tannah!" .....that's I like Hannah Montana.

Why is it when you try to remember stuff they say so you can write it down you draw a blank? I need to start carrying a note pad in the car with me because that is usually when he is talking and cracking me up!
