So the kids have been saying some pretty funny stuff lately. Rowen lately has been not wanting to take baths and wash her hair so I explained to her that if she did not take baths she would get very dirty, smelly, and little bugs would grow in her hair…… Unfortunately now every time I comb her hair she asks me if little “buggies” are in her hair…With all the seriousness a 3 year old can muster. Very cute and makes me laugh as I explain too her that the bath made her hair very soft and clean with no “buggies”. And with this whole divorce thing she has been saying “I miss you” to both Mandi and I but I don’t think she fully grasps the meaning. I think she means it as I love you. But this night (I let them stay up since it is a weekend and it is now 10:30 ) it was great. She told me she misses (loves me since I have been with them for a long bit) me and right after told me in the most sad little high girl voice…”daddy…I miss you!…I’m hungry..my tummy hurts.” For those who do not know this is Rowen code for Hey dad….I love you and all but I am turning on the cute for some chips or something else nummy since I once again refused dinner that was not covered in cheese or ranch! heh
Kolyn on the other hand is a character as always. My sweet and rapidly growing up (mentally, physically and attitude) is turning into a big boy. He can grasp so many things now and explain to me the way things work with a general knowledge that blows me away. Lately he told me how he things a toaster, dryer and washing machine works and really he is spot freaking on. And his word of late is “busted”. “Mommy did you bust out of the “hospital”" (Kid’s don’t know what a rehab or recovery center is so it is explained as hospital…and really they don’t need to know the negative effect aspects only the positives) “Hey dad..did you bust down 405 to pick us up at daycare?” “Lets go bust to the store.” Unfortunately with Kolyn’s growing up he has lately become a very good lier in regards to hitting or shoving his sister. Usually it is Rowen who starts it..but I am trying to make him learn that he needs to come to me than resort to physical or anger in this regard.
Anyways those two sayings have been very cute in my mind. Buggies and Busted. Have not been posting much of the numerous things we have done lately such as SeaFair, Bumbershoot or the Fair but will try to be a better blogger than this once a quarter posting junk.
