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!

A Hand to Hold
The other night my sweet boy Carson had a bad dream. He asked if he could sleep with me and I carried him to our bed half asleep. He snuggled in and just as I was about to drift back to sleep he whispered, "Mom?" I think I mustered up a "huh?" and he so sweetly whispered, "Hold my hand".
I'll happily hold your hand anytime sweetie!

Snow Play
Having 12 days off to play with my boys is amazing! Brett surprised me at took the same days off so we could spend it together....unfortunately someone has to be on the other side of the camera. Could have been a great family picture!Sunday, December 27, 2009
Merry Christmas From Our Family To Yours!
Due to the blizzard conditions on Christmas Eve, we opted to stay safe and warm in the comfort of our own home. We'll be celebrating with Grandma & Grandpa Kopke on January 2nd instead.
The boys enjoyed telling their "Elf" goodbye before he headed back to the North Pole.
It looks like the boys were good and the "Elf" reported mostly good behaviors to Santa.
Christmas morning with presents galore!
Collin loves his new Radio Flyer bike from Santa.
Yes! A double dump truck!We hope that your holiday was as joyful as ours. We are truly blessed!
The Springers
