You are a songwriter now Colt!! I keep thinking to myself we need to record some of your "music." This would include songs like "Dog" and "Wiggle" that make absolutely no sense, but you sing them on your own little made up way :-)

We laid you down for a nap after we got home from church today. . about 10 minutes later (and I could hear you talking in there the whole time anyways) you came out and said, "I had a GOOD nap!"

I told you I didn't think you had taken a nap. . .

"I DID have a good nap?"

"No. . . go back to bed Colt."

"Awwww man. . ."

To stink or not to stink. . .

Papaw Randy relayed this story to me yesterday of the laughable events while Mommy and Daddy were out and about:

We had just laid you down for your nap and left to run some errands, when you ran out of your room here at Nana and Gramps saying, "DADDY! I have to potty!!"

So, Gramps asked if you needed any help. You said, "No. I'm fine. And Gramps. . . you may want to close the door because IT MIGHT STINK!"

Colt got wet "playing in rain" after church on Sunday with some other kids. He was trying to catch the rain dripping off the roof with a jar (sounds like a great past time for a 2 year old I know). Nevertheless, he came running in yelling, "MOMMY GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF!" I asked him what he wanted "off," to which he replied "the rain on my sweater!"

With this pregnancy I've been quite sick (again). One morning I was just crying because I felt so weak and couldn't quit vomiting. Colt came in and gave me a kiss, "It's going to be okay Mommy." Then I got sick again, and he just looked at me and said, "It's PROBABLY going to be okay. . ." Very reassuring. It is sweet to hear him pray for "mommy to feel better" though :-)

2 year olds say the funniest things!

1. On our travels up to WV we stopped for a bathroom break at McDonalds, while sitting in a booth enjoying our 3/$1 cookies ;-) Colt looked over at a table full of teenagers and yelled, "IS EVERYBODY OKAY OVER THERE?" That could possibly be my first embarrassing moment? He's so verbal!

2. At Mom and Dad's, while David was hunting, we were all sitting together finishing up breakfast. Mom asked Colt if he needed to go to the bathroom. Colt's response, "Well, that's a good question Nana!"

3. Today Colt asked me what I was eating. . . I told him I thought I might eat some cereal, or an apple, or orange, or banana. To which he replied, "THAT'S JUST CRAZY MAMA! You are soooo crazy!" hahahaha. I love it - all this talking (most of the time)!

"I don't know about that. . ."

This made me laugh out loud:

I was putting Colt to bed and he ALWAYS calls me back in to put socks on his feet. So, I thought I'd jump the gun and asked him if he wanted to go ahead and get his socks on when he got in bed. In his cute little voice with so much expression, he said, "I don't know about THAT Mommy." Wonder where he heard that phrase?

David took Colt to a new friends house last night. When they were getting ready to leave, David said, "Thank you and it was nice to meet you." Colt - who was more excited about their pet cats - ran across the room and landed right in front of the cat and yelled, "NICE TO EAT YOU!" Surprisingly the cat didn't even move? Go figure.

"MAMA! I HIT THE DECK!" was what was coming out of your mouth with much distress, all the while rubbing your little toe head. With some investigation I discovered you had bumped your head pretty hard on my DESK. We learned the difference afterwards :-)
