I was vacuuming the living room last night. M says "MOM, I can't hear the TV!" I apologized and told him I would hurry but I had to clean the floors. When I was finished he said "this looks great! good job mommy! You did a good job!"
J's new thing is "leave me alone!" any time I'm scolding him for something.
M's is "just a minute..." When I need him to do something. And I'm really trying to give him that minute and remember I don't always want to do something right away and he may not want to either.

S always calls me in after bedtime to lie down with him. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. The other night he's laying on top of his fleece blanket and he rubs his hand along it saying "mom, this is so comfortable... what to try it out?" It was so cute, that of course I lay down with him for a bit.

Me: S, can I have a kiss?
S: No. But I still love you, mommy".

The neighbors have their baby steers in the pasture coming up our drive way. They're pretty much all black and white or just black. Except these 3 brown ones, that are the most adorable things I've ever seen in my life. Even the boys are just in love with them. We were coming up the other day, just the boys and I on the golf cart and Matthew said he wanted the brown one. Last night we came up with DH and he said "daddy I want the brown one, actually, I think I just need all of them" So we stopped and tried to pet them, DH also fell in love with them and agreed we need cows! They love my moms puppy so in a desperate attempt to pet them, A was ready to sacrifice the dog lol. Sadie was not on board.

We drove by a cemetery over the weekend and Atticus asked what it was.
I told him when people die, a lot of times we put their body in the ground. I said Pete's brother was buried there. I explained when Pete's Mom died she was also buried in the ground.
He exclaimed, "What the heck?! Everybody is DYING!!!"

When we pulled up to the fair last night Matthew was SO excited! He said "I always wanted to go to a theme park! Can we go there?!" Idk how he even knows what a theme park is lol. But it was adorable. He told us all the way home how much fun he had. We pet all the animals and strongly considered sneaking a cow out.
Jack has started saying "Oh my gracious!" I die of cuteness every time.

When I told Cadence about the Peppa Pig tickets I told her with these tickets she will get to meet Peppa and get her picture taken with her. C: On the stage?!? Me: Um, no, I think it's in a different room, after the show. C: But I wanted to dance with her on the stage.
I may have to strap her to her seat to prevent her from running up on stage for this one.

peachsmama, it wasn't the State Fair, right? I think it got shut down temporarily after the accident.

T kicked me in the stomach (not hard and by accident). Just at that moment, my stomach growled. He said "oh no, the baby is mad at me. Does he bite?"

In the candy aisle at the grocery store:
*loud sigh* "it's just so beautiful!"
My kid likes candy.

While I was running yesterday Jack wanted DH to follow me with the golf cart. I thought they'd get bored and move on and leave me alone after a few minutes. Nope. Dh said Jack kept narrating what I was doing
"Mommy running" "Op, mommy done running, mommy walking" "Op, mommy running again" "Now she walking, mommy done running"
For the full 30 minutes. Lol. Op is his version of oh. I say it too apparently. Never noticed until he picked it up.

Matthew has started fibbing. He told A's mom this big story about a baseball game he played in? And last night told nana that I took him to the aquarium and he pet a shark yesterday. IDK if he just doesn't know what yesterday/today/tomorrow mean or if he's just making things up lol. It's pretty funny to hear though.

I had some blank Thank You cards out on the counter and M snatched them up. He scribbled in one of them, put some fake coins in it, and walks in my room to hand me the card. He says "Happy Mother's Day, Mommy!" I thank him and "read" his card then smother him with hugs and kisses. Rinse and repeat x3. I tell him that daddy needs a card, too. So he runs out to make one for MH. He returns in 2 minutes and walks up to MH with a card and goes "Happy Mother's Day, Daddy!" LOL.

I got teary-eyed when I saw a picture of one of our old dogs and Atticus came over, patted my back, squeezed my hand and said, "Mama? It's going to be okay. I'm going to fix everything."

C is wearing Darth Vader socks today. He's never seen Star Wars but wanted them because they were "cool". On the way home he said "my new friend doesn't like my socks because he's says Darth Vader's scary. But they're not real. They're just socks!"
He has such advanced reasoning sometimes.

Then we get home and Maxi is trying to steal his dinner and he says "ugh! He's a fucking cat!"😧
We now have a timeout rule that if either of us says it we get timeout. I know I'm the problem here.

Sitting in the car on our long ass ride today, listening to her kids songs. Row Row Row your boat:
....REAM.......REAM......Melly Melly Melly Melly.....REAM.
She sings the last word of each sentence (stream and dream) only, then merrily merrily. Over and over and over.
