Random

The kids do and say so many random things.  I try to write them all down so I don't forget.  They are hilarious, innocent and a little crazy.  Here are a few of the most recent conversations.

After last week's soccer game Ryan showed me this gatorade and said "This isn't just any gatorade, Parker gave it to me."  It was so sweet.  He seemed so proud of that drink.  He put it in the downstairs fridge for safe keeping.

After breakfast one morning, Ryan said "How many teeth do you have Leah" and Leah said "Probably a ton" to which Ryan replied "just like a shark?!".  I love their conversations.  

After I got done tucking Leah into bed she looked at me very seriously and said, "Moo-ma, can you peek out the window and make sure a giant isn't eating our house and that the puddles are still there?"  I checked.  No giant eating the house.  

Out of the blue the other day Ryan said, "mommy, I have a good idea. I'm going to share my money with you so we can go on more vacations. I have $28.44, and you have even more than that. We can go to Mexico, that is my favorite. You can think about that."  It was so incredibly sweet.  He asked me how he could make more money so we could go on more vacations.  He wants to go on a vacation so bad.  I love vacations too and I love spending time together.  I hope we can go somewhere next year.  I'm saving and so is he!, 

Lastly, Ryan had his first cavity filled today.  He wasn't looking forward to it and admitted that he was a little nervous, but I think I was more nervous than him.  The dentist said it was a really small one, so no numbing was needed.  He also said that he was most likely "destined" to have a cavity, he has been saying that for years.  He said that the tooth was most likely weakened due to having a fever when the tooth was being formed...he basically told us it wasn't our fault.  It made me feel a little better, but I was still sad.  Anyway, on the way in the door Leah asked Ryan if he was getting a shot.  He said, "NO!  This is the dentist, not the doctor!!"  I was so glad when he didn't need a shot to numb his mouth.  He sat in the chair and was so brave. They tried to force xrays.  Seriously, force.  I almost stepped in.  They just tried 2 weeks ago.  It didn't work then, not sure why they thought it would today.  That was probably the worst part of the visit.  Brave kid.  He was happy to get his prize.  He picked a Packer pencil and Leah picked a pair of princess sunglasses  that make hills.   Here's to no more cavities!!
