Carson & Collin

It's been awhile since I've updated everyone on what the boys have been up to. Other than pictures that is! Carson has said some pretty funny things lately and I know if I don't write them down I will soon forget them. As I always do.

Dozer

He told his daycare provider shortly after we got Dozer...."Dozer is part dog and part big. But more part pig." I think it's safe to say that Dozer's snoring/snorting/grunting was the reason behind this comment.

Missing Daddy
I asked Carson yesterday on our way to Walmart if he coudl hop on a plane and go anywhere he could, where would he go? He responded, "Where daddy is!" I think Brett would probably argue with Carson that Doniphan, MO is not a place you'd want to be. Or so I've been told!

So Many Questions

On our way to Beaver City today we drove past a funeral home that is being built. Carson asked me what it was and I had to explain in quite detail what a funeral home is after many "why & what" questions he proceeded to ask me, "Do you think they'll be finished with it before grandma dies?" It's questions like these that make me wonder what's going on in that little boys head.....lots and lots of thinking I believe!

This was from Carson's daily report at Krystal's last Thursday.
Today we had pancakes at lunch time. One of the kids asked if they could have that special dip to put on the pancakes (syrup). Carson nicely informed them, "It’s called syrup. Becuause you
put it on the pancakes and makes it all syrupy. Syrup. Syrup. Can you say that? Syrup." He was very nice (and informative) with his explaination. Sounded like a little grown up.


The Quiet One

Mr. Collin is not quite at his brothers level of communicating. Nor do I expect him to be. However, he is adding more and more words each day. He says things like ball, down, up, more, milk, Dozer, cheese, shoes, truck, car, choo-choo, hat, please, no, thank-you, bath, quack, moo, meow, kitty and oink. Still generally very quiet and only speaks when he wants to. I think that may just be his personallity. He likes to point to pictures in books, ride his tricycle, play ball with Dozer, and sleep with his pup-pup (another word!). He gets his lazy, I want to stay in bed all day, behavior from me....or maybe his dad! I'm not so sure!

Hi!
Looks like you guys had a great Christmas and Dozer sure looks like a lot of fun :-) I bet the boys are loving him! I love Carson's description of syrup - maybe he'll be a speech-language pathologist?!?! ;-)
