Often said at breakfast time: "I love you when you make dinner".
I wonder when he will understand that breakfast is always in the morning, lunch is always in the afternoon, and dinner is always in the evening.
He has become my personal little cheerleader. I often hear him tell me "nice job, Mommy!" This phrase comes out of his mouth with so much enthusiasm and it's usually not when I do anything extraordinary and amazing. It's always when it's something completely normal, like putting on my shirt and pants or washing my hands before dinner.
For some random reason, he can't pronounce the letter 'G'. We notice this a lot lately because the grapes from our grapevine are now ready to eat. The kids are addicted and we hear this all throughout the day, every day: "mmmmm... I love these dreen drapes! Do you love these dreen drapes? Why don't you eat some?" He says this to whomever he sees enter the kitchen or backyard (the backyard is where the grapevine is).
We took the kids to Wheeler Farm the other day for a storytelling event. After the event was over, we stayed and strolled around to look at all of the animals. Usually we do stuff like this during the day but this time it was in the evening and while we were there it started to get dark. This is really gross and something we've not observed there before, maybe because we always go during the day, I don't know. Anyway, this time we noticed so many rats. Big fat rats! It grossed me out, I'll be honest, but Jaxton was so excited about this and when he saw one he clapped his hands and said "Look guys!... Rattles!" and then he giggles. Mitch and I laughed and we now refer to rats as rattles.
