The Boy Who Cried Toot

The other day Brayden and I were playing in his room when all of a sudden he stopped.  He looked at me and said something that sounded like "tut."  I was confused, until he farted and I then realized he said toot.  Since that night he has been announcing his moments of gas, either prior to or just after they occur.   Where did he learn this from?

There is no crying in my world

Several weeks ago we went to Pasta Too for dinner.  We had a large party and had to wait to be seated.  While waiting, there was another party with several kids sitting next to us in the entrance.  The one little boy was probably 3 or 4 and he was hungry and not wanting to wait any more.  To show his displeasure with Pasta Too this little boy began to cry.  After a minute or two of crying, Brayden looked at the boy and then looked back at us and made a sad face and started mock crying to make fun of the little boy.   Brayden still does this to make fun of his little brother.

Confused Little Boy

The other day I was going to the bathroom while seated and Brayden walked in on me.  He walked past me to go over to his bathtub and as he past me he looked at me.  He pointed towards my crotch and then threw his arms up in the air and with a very confused look on his face asked "pee-pee?"  Maybe we should start explaining potty training better.

Dreaming of Monkneys

The other night I go into Brayden's room to check on him before we go to bed.  I find he has rolled off his bed and is asleep on the floor.  So I pick him up and lay him back in bed.  As I do this he blurts out "monkney," never waking up as I lay him down.  Needless to say the little guy is a big fan of monkeys.    

Man of few words, but many hand gestures.

Second Story...

The other night I was bathing Brayden and after his bath I was drying him off in front of the toilet.  He pointed to something and said "Mommy."  I was unsure of what he was talking about so I asked him to repeat what he said.  Again he pointed to something and said "Mommy."  I finally figured out he was pointing at the plunger.  I asked him if Mommy uses the plunger and he said "yeah," and moved his hands up and down furiously.

Just the Beginning

I hate blogs and everything about them, but I have 2 little boys that make me laugh and some of these stories need to be written down for people to read.  First story....

A couple of days ago we asked Brayden what he wanted for his birthday.  He quickly answered "choo-choo," we prompted for another answer and he responded with "mac n cheese".  After asking him for his next birthday request he said "water," we said why and he said "iced tea." So to summarize he wants a train, a boxed dinner and water to make iced tea.

That would be a sweet 2nd birthday if he gets all his wishes.
