I have not been good about updating the site lately! I would like to share a few touching moments lately and also some funnies! I will post some pics sometime soon! Forgive any typos as I am tired!
A few days ago I was rocking Dane and we were singing some of his favorites, Deep and Wide, Twinkle, Twinkle and another song which he asks for nightly called The Dane Ryan Song (one that I obviously made up!). It is the most simple song, but says his name a lot so he really likes it. After several rounds of each song, I was quietly rocking my little guy. Several minutes passed and then Dane lifted his head and looked right at me and asked, "Mommy, God made me?" I was stuned and almost broke into tears. My little boy was actually prosessing this and thinking about it enough to pose the question to me. The day before we had been going through the list, God made....We had not discussed anything of the sort that day at all. I am amazed!
A funny:
On Friday we visited an ENT for a evaluation. As I suspected, he recommended tubes based on the pressure in Dane's ears and his infection log. On Friday night we went to eat with my mom, sister and grandparents. I told Dane, "Tell Poppie what you are going to get in your ears!" Dane looked straight at her and said, "Boobs." I thought the entire table was going to either spew the drink in their mouth or choke on the food. We laughed so hard!
Another cute story is that we are really working with Dane on responding to adults with "Yes/No M'am and Yes/No Sir." A few weeks ago Dane was answering my dad with, "Yes M'am." I would explain that PaPa was a Sir and that he should say Sir to him since he is a boy. The next day Dane's babysitter was taking her daily meds in the kitchen and in walked Dane. Dane asked her, "Bisa you take medicine?" She answered, "Yes Dane, I am taking medicine." Dane looked up at her and said, "You say yes Sir!" Theresa (Bisa) called me at work to share this story and we have all laughed multiple times about it!
Dane is so into make-believe right now. He loves to look for and "shoot" bad guys and monsters. He will run around and look for monsters anywhere he goes. He loves to take a flashlight into a dark room and seek them out. Being one of three girls, all of this type play is new to me. He loves to run around in circles and tackle Brad as soon as he gets home from work. He is still into Elmo big time and wants to watch at least one Elmo DVD daily (fun for me!??!!) He is really loving reading too. He will sit through fairly long stories and doesn't just care about the pictures, but wants to hear what will happen next.
Here are only some of the sentences my little man is saying:
"I a big boy."
"Mommy, you need a pankin (spanking)."
"Jesus is God's son."
"Mommy, what you and Daddy talkin' bout?" (anytime Brad and I carry on a conversation).
He knows that Mommy's name is "Whity" and Daddy's name is "Brad"
