Jay and Owen Rate the Movies

We took the boys to see "Up." Owen gives it a thumbs down. "I don't ever want to see this movie again." He shouted this out in the middle of the movie. It was good for a few laughs from the audience. It was just too scary for him. Jay gives the movie a thumbs up. "I like it. I want some popcorn."

Owen Swallowed a Penny

Owen started coughing and crying. I knew he had a penny and I asked him if he swallowed it. He said no. I asked where his penny was. He said it was in his piggy bank. His piggy bank is not accessible to him since he was caught throwing it around the room. He admitted he swallowed it. He was crying and saying he was sorry. I asked him why he swallowed it. He said, "Because I got tired of holding it." He was upset because now he doesn't have any money anymore. I told him he'll get it back in a couple days.

Pick a Movie

Last weekend, we decided to watch a movie. I asked the boys to "pick a movie." Jay points to my chest and says, "I pick this boobie."

Speed Demons

The boys have a Mustang Power Wheels. The other day, Jay said he wanted it to go faster. I hadn't yet taken out the screw that lets it go into fast gear. Since he now knows how to steer the car, I obliged and took out the screw. He took off driving around the block with Owen. I struggled to keep up. They got too far ahead and my calls to them to stop went unheeded. They made it around the block and started around a second time. I caught a glimpse of them at the top of the street. Jay was "idling" while Owen was out of the car running up to a neighbors door. I yelled for Jay to wait. I hear, "Hurry Owen! Here comes mommy." Owen runs across the yard, jumps in the car and they are off again. I turn around and go the opposite direction and eventually catch up to them as they come around the block. Jay is banned from driving the car for a month.

Potty Trained

The boys are potty trained. No more diapers. Yahoo!!!!!!!!

Hugs

I asked Owen the other day why he kept coming into mommy's bed to sleep. He said, "So I can give you lots of hugs." That boy knows how to play the game.

Let's Skate

The boys wanted to make their own ice skating rink in my kitchen. They dumped sugar all over the floor and were "skating" in it.
