Why???? Because I did!!!!

Cullen often has certain things he will say for a week or two, then find something else to say. Lately he has chosen 2 new things to say....and they seem to be sticking.

Cullen seems to like to start off a converstion, or any sentence as far as that goes with, "SO". It's "so Mommy..." or "So, I just finished breakfast" etc... It reminds me of when I used to say "So let me tell ya". That was a key phrase of mine when I first met Trent. He pointed it out all of the time, but I don't think I say it anymore. I wonder if I shortened it to "SO", because Cullen would have gotten that somewhere.

The other choice phrase of his is, "Wanna know why? Because I did". For example I had the boys outside yesterday. Cullen said he wanted to get some toys so he comes back outside with a few toys and said " I got these toys....wanna know why???" I asked why thinking he was going to tell me why he chose those particular toys but, no he answers, "Because I did". This is the standard answer these days....it might vary to "because I am, because I do, because I wanted to"...either way, it always starts with because, and ends with no actual reason or answer. Half of our conversation end up here,lol. It's actually quite cute, and his logic often makes me giggle.Oh, to be 4 and not need any other reason to do anything, other than just "because"....simple and honest. He doesn't need to be any other way. I'm sure wishing these answers were acceptable as an adult.

This weeks changes.....

Now that the current teething is taking a break Quade has been all smiles...and giggles!!!! It's nice to see. He's had a bit of a hard road....for those of you who really know him with refulx, bowel issues, being constantly sick and teething for over 4 months. I've been waiting and hoping that he would become the happy litlle boy I knew he was :)

He's now off the prevacid, he has 2 teeth....and is super happy! It is funny what little it takes to make him laugh. cullen makes him laugh, playing peek-a-boo makes him laugh, he loves to be tickled and pretty much any funny look or sound will make him laugh these days. Even the animals walking by him makes him laugh.

Cullen has a little friend in the neighborhood...they stopped by yesterday when we were outside playing, and had a water fight. I like his mom too, so we will have more playdates I'm sure. This is why we moved! We wanted to give the boys the kind of place that they could play with and make friends, and know the people in the neighborhood.  It wasn't possible at the our other house. We so made the right decision.

Over the last couple of weeks Cullen has shown that he has one of mommy's behaviours...making songs for everything!!!! Yup, he walks aroung singing about anything he can think f. He even sang about the moldy smell at the superstore while getting groceries,lol. That's my little man!!!!
