So I haven't done a kid update in a while
and thought I'd take a minute or two to write some of the odds and ends of my
two sweet kids the last few months. Noah is doing the same. Still
infatuated with Cars and is super smart. He loves going to the at home
preschool and he has suddenly turned into quite the show off whenever we run
into any of the girls from his preschool class. He see's two of them at
church on Sunday and always has to show off when we walk by them! He
is a sweet kid and is a good boy!
Some funny things he's said recently:
First a
conversation between Noah and Mommy not too long ago.
Me: "Aww, that is so sweet. Can I be your best friend forever and when you are 16?
"Noah: "Umm no...only when I'm just a little kid."
Ha ha...I couldn't help but
think to myself...well at least I know! :)
Then one time Noah and
I were talking and he figured that he would probably have his own kids when he
was big. And he told me, "I will have my own kids and I will try to
teach them to be good." I don't know it was just kind of heartwarming
to me. That he somehow figured out in his short three years of life that me and Tommy are
really just trying to help him be a good person. :)
Also, he has a
nickname for me right now and it cracks me up. He calls me it ALL the
time. I have been nicknamed by my son....Mama Goose. :) He calls me
Mama Goose all the time and I just let him because it's kind of cute. Not
sure where in the world it came from or where he heard it, or if he just made
it up himself! But that's my nickname. :) I sure love Noah and he is the
best 3 year old boy I know!
Then there is my sweet Makenna. She is starting to talk a lot more! In fact it was SOO cute. Today she purposely went and hit Noah on the back (well that part wasn't the cute part) :) But after I scolded her she turned to Noah and said, "Sorry (sawee)," and then went and gave him a hug. It was SOOO cool. I didn't even tell her to say sorry. But I guess her big brother apologizes enough to her that she figured it out and when she is supposed to do it. And she kept saying sorry and giving him hugs. I loved it! She is so much fun. She can say mom...but insists on calling me daddy. Not sure why! ha ha. But she says mom, daddy, no, yes, food, cold, ball, cracker, shut, book, and a few more. She understands pretty much everything you tell her and when she is not using selective hearing she will gladly give you hugs and kisses. She is notorious for coming and giving you kisses when she is being bad. For example, we have our Christmas tree up and she will go and try and touch the bulbs. We will tell her, "No Makenna." She will smile, walk over to us, and give us a kiss. Then she will go back and touch a bulb again. ha ha. She's funny that way! She is very easy going...but the things she chooses to be stubborn about she will fight tooth and nail for! :) She just had her 15 month check up and weighed a little over 20 pounds. She was just below average in height and weight. She is healthy and happy and we love her!
I just love when these two get along. Surprisingly...and at such young ages they already fight! I really didn't expect that to happen for many more years! But they do love each other and do have a lot of fun together too. It cracks me up though because if Noah tells Makenna not to do something she gets SOO mad. She will yell right back at him and give him a dirty look. But if me or Tom tell her no, she either listens (or smiles at us and does it again). :) But man does it really tick her off if her brother tries to tell her what to do. It's wrong...but it cracks me up! I sure love these kids!
