Quotes from the boys

Nolan (3) talking to Nash: "But not Mommy.  She might bonk her head.  She's a pwincess."

Nolan and I were laying in bed one night after reading a book.  My stomach starting growling.  Nolan gasps and says, "I think there's a baby in there again."

Quotes from the boys

Nash (5) and Nolan (3) were playing cars.  There was a lot of shooting and crashing going on.  Nash yells, "Finn McMissile...he's dead..oh no..wait..look Nolan..he's alive..he's not dead..he's not dead, I checked his tailpipe!"

After reading a book in bed with Nolan, I asked him if we could pray.  I started to pray and usually he will repeat me.  This time he said, "No mom, I'm da leader."  And then, the sweetest prayer..."Hey God.  Thank you for all my family.  Thank you for my friends.  Thank you for shirts.  Thank you for the MS walk."  Melted my heart!  Since then, most of his prayers start out like this..."Hey God.  Thank you for Monster Jam..."  So cute!

Nash: "Mom, your brain must be this big." (holding fingers together the size of a golf ball).  "Because it can only hold one idea at a time."

Quotes from Nash

If you have every watched "Super Why" you might appreciate this one.  I asked Nash to finish his mac n cheese at lunch the other day.  He said, "I can't Mom.  In my story it says Nash will only eat grapes and crackers.  :0)  Nice try Buddy.

Nash likes to ask me if I know why certain things are called what they are called.  He asked me the other day if I knew why a driveway is called a driveway.  He said "because you drive on it and it's a way to get to your garage."  I told him he was so smart and asked how he knew that.  He said "I just learned it myself.  God made me this way."

Post It Notes and Quotes

**I finally felt Hiccup move for sure on Thursday, March 1 at 17.5 weeks.  I kept thinking I should be feeling movement earlier than that but maybe I was just anxious.  It's one of the best parts about being pregnant in my opinion.  I still don't feel the baby move a ton, but every once in a while I can tell there's some action going on in there.  This week Baby Center says baby is the size of a green pepper weighing 7 oz.  I feel big compared to where I think I was with Nash and Nolan.  I'm blaming the Girl Scouts.  And I have candy cravings again like I did with Nash.

**I have to share some cute quotes from Nash recently.  He comes up with the funniest stuff...

Nash:  Mom, Nolan calls me Dash
Me:  I know, isn't that cute?
Nash:  Mom, it's not cute.  Baby animals are cute.

Jason and the boys were playing Hide and Go Seek in the house the other day.  Jason found the boys pretty quickly one time.
Nash:  Dad, you are a really good finder.  Did you smell us?

Silly and slippery

Nolan

Everyone has been commenting lately about how chatty Nolan is becoming.  His vocabulary has expanded and he is voicing his opinion.  He's a pretty happy guy!  He's social like his brother and says "Hi" to most people we pass by.

Nash

**Nash spent the night at Nana and Papa's one night.  He had told me he wanted me to pick him up in the morning.  The next morning he told Nana that I was planning to pick up him pretty early.  Nana told him she was sad because she wanted him to stay longer.  He said, "Nana, I don't want to see any tears."

**Nash was talking about turning 4 and then we started talking about my age.  He said, "I will be your age some day."  I told him he had to graduate from high school and college first.  He said, "I want to go to High School.  I'm gonna need a pencil."
