Zayden Funnies

I haven't had a chance to write all week, and I know I have forgotten so many funnies, but here are a couple I remember that he has said/done in the last couple of days.

Today, he said, "Can I go outside and ride my bike?". It was after his bath and he was wet, so I said, "No, it's cold outside." Z says, "Can I go out FRONT?" I laughed and said, "no, it's cold out front too." Than Z asked "why is it cold?" (he is asking the why ??'s all the time now), and I said, "because winter is coming". Z says, "where did Winter go?" All I could do is laugh, because honestly I don't know where winter goes before it is coming. :)

Z is so literal right now. I think I have told him before that Ivy has spit up or something. Well, Ivy now is drooling a lot, so when Z looks over at her and sees the bubbles or the drool he'll say, "mommy, Ivy is spitting out!" Which really that IS what she is doing.

Zayden loves to play football and asks me to tackle him all day long. Today he had his football and his helmet on and he kept falling down, so I asked him what he was doing and he said, "I'm tackling myself"

Also today once when he fell down he said, "I fall down.....I broke my crown!"

Okay, that's all I can think of for now!

Zayden Funny

Me: Do you remember what we did yesterday?
Z: We went to the park.

Me: No, we went to the hospital and saw the doctor.
Z: The doctor was a guy.

Me: Yes, he was a guy. The doctor was nice to you.
Z: Yes, he was nice. He did not hit or kick me!

Eggstatic!!!

Zayden had his egg challenge today, and I am so happy that he has grown out of the egg allergy!!! Hooray!!

It was such a long test. He had to have a little bit of a powdered egg substance mixed with applesauce, and then wait 15 minutes, and then have a little more egg/sauce combo, wait 15 more min, and then more of the combo. He had 10 portions. He ate a total of 4 apple sauce containers and the equivalent of 2 eggs total.

He had no problems, and he was so good the entire 4 hours we were at the clinic!! We played a lot of football in the hall. We also read and walked around a little, while we would wait. I was so happy he was willing to eat all the sauce/egg combo without any fight at all. If he wouldn't have completed this the allergist wouldn't of let us eat eggs for another year! The nurses kept commenting on how Good Zayden was while we were there.

Our main nurse even said that Zayden was doing better than most 5 year olds she sees. I'm so proud of my boy!! He isn't supposed to have any more egg today. However, tomorrow, I am going to make him French toast for breakfast, and then probably some scrambled eggs at some point during the day!!!

Now if he would just grow out of that darn dairy allergy!! Doc said he may grow out of that one by the time he is 4. We are hopeful!!!

The day has come.....Ivy has moved out!

Last night was Ivy's first night out of our bedroom. It was bittersweet. Yes, she is just down the hall, but she is no longer the tiny baby that laid next to me in the bassinet for 11 weeks. She actually did great in her crib last night. She only woke up 2x, which is about 5x better than the three previous nights when she was up ALL night!! She looks so tiny all alone in that big crib.
I go back to work in 8 days. ugh!! I wanted her to be comfy in her room by then. The good thing about her being in her room is to have our room back. Last night I was able to read in bed with the light on, and not have to tip toe around.
I do miss her though. *sniff*

Zayden funny:

When I typed "comfy" just now it reminded me of something Zayden said yesterday. I was on the couch nursing Ivy, and Zayden sat on another part of the couch (it's a sectional).
He said, "Mommy sit over here". And he patted on the cushion beside him. I told him not right now, and then he said, "There's more room over here......It's comfy!". It totally cracked me up.....just because it was so random and must be words I use er something.

Impersonation

Weeks ago when Obama was still duking it out with Hillary, Zayden would pick up his microphone and say, "I Barack Obama", and crack me up every time. I tried a couple of times one day to get him to say, "I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message." However, he just ignored me so I dropped it (weeks ago!). Well, I don't know if he saw a recent commercial that sparked a memory or what. Yesterday out of the blue he picked up the microphone and did this:

Also, if anyone should ask him who will be the next president his reply is always, "Obama....Yay!!!" :D

Thank you Ivy!

Ivy,

You may not take the longest naps, and you are far from sleeping through the night. However, I want to thank you for ALWAYS waking up with a smile. Even when I am completely worn out and you are crying for me to come get you, when I look down at you and say "hello", and your face lights up with that beautiful big smile with all those dimples I feel so refreshed and lucky!! So, thank you so much for smiling at me! :)

Love Always,

Your mama

He did me proud!

Today my mother in law watched the kids for a short time, so I could run to the gym, which was very nice! Mother in law admitted to me that when Zayden woke up she said to him, "Are you grandma's boy?", and Zayden said, "No, I am mama's boy!". She said she kept asking him if he was sure he wasn't grandmas boy and he insisted he was MY boy!! :)

And a couple recent funnies:

A couple days ago at dinner out of the blue Zayden says, "I'm like a rock star!". I look over at Brian, and he says he didn't learn that from him, and I say me either, then I just look back at Z and tell him that I agree, he is like a rock star!!

Yesterday I was sitting with Ivy on a blanket, and I was holding her in a seated position. Zayden pulled the blanket up and brought it up around Ivy's back and around her shoulders, and then said, "This is Ivy's cape". I guess he realizes already too that she is a super hero!

Today Zayden put a bucket hat on Ivy, stepped back and looked at her and then said, "Ivy is the muffin man!".
