and... it's outside. I'm probably the only mom on the planet that has this crazy outside toy/inside toy rule (the inside toys stay inside and the outside toys stay outside -- it seems even more ridiculous when I type it out)... Noah knew I was too busy to notice... he's too darn smart! and so stinkin' in love with this gorilla...

"Awww, Man!"
The following story happened in our car this morning.
Me - "Hey boys, I talked to Gram last night and she and Grandad are going to be here for BOTH of your birthday parties."
Carter - "Awwww, man"
Me - "Carter, are you excited that Gram and Grandad can come?"
Carter - "YES!!!"
Riley - "Carter, you don't say 'awww, man' when you are excited, you say 'YEAH!'"

A Buffalo named....
"Hey Carter, does your bison have a name?"
"Yep."
"What is it?"
"His name is Donkey."
"Your bison's name is Donkey?"
"Yep, but he's a buffalo."

HA!
This one is for Grandpa!
Background info - I often tease the boys... telling them they can't grow up. And, my dad retired last year to go back to school... and get his doctorate. So... it's not really retirement as much as a career change... Don't ask what it's in... he will have to post that in the comments since I can't remember (sorry Padre).
Me: "So I made a decision. There will not be any growing up in this house."
Riley: "But I want to go to college. I want to go to Texas Tech college" (sorry babe, that's what he called it)
Me: "You don't want to do that... it's a long way from Gram & Grandad's house. And, when you were little Grandpa agreed to pay for college if you went to the U-Dub (University of Washington)."
Riley: "When I grow up I want to live in Seattle so I can see Grandma all the time and go to college and graduate with Grandpa.... and you can come visit"
Me: "Well, you won't be able to graduate with Grandpa because he will be done by the time you get to college."
note... this is the same child who just a few weeks ago told me he wanted to live with me forever... I should have known that you throw Grandma in the mix and I quickly become CHOPPED LIVER!
