Toothpaste

January 26, 2005

Yesterday Eric went to brush his teeth before going to work and asked me where his toothbrush was (like I would know). Since I didn't know he went and asked Aeden, only to discover that there was a half a tube of toothpaste squirted out on the rug in the living room.

Bed!

Aeden made his bed by himself for the first (and last) time.

Altoids

January 18, 2005

Apparently I am being rewarded every time I poop on the potty. Aeden informed me that if I pooped on the potty I would get an altoid, and there was more for whenever I went poop.

Then, as I was eating an altoid and Aeden was sitting there chomping the altoids down as if they were, well candy, the following conversation ensued.

Me: Please get the altoids away from me, they are making me sick.
Aeden: No pick nose, get sick.
Me: Oh if you pick your nose you will get sick?
Aeden: Yeah, pick nose, get sick, need medicine.
Me: You need medicine if you get sick?
Aeden: Yeah eat those, all better.

Not feeling well...

January 14, 2005


Aeden: I no feel good.
Mommy: What doesn't feel good?
Aeden: I no feel good.
Mommy: What doesn't feel good? Is it your finger?
Aeden: I no feel good, I need cake.
Daddy: Well you can't get cake if you don't feel good. If you don't feel good you need lots of water and sleep.
Aeden: I feel good mommy, I feel good. I have cake now?

Blame it on the Earwax

I found this post on my other blog:

Blame it on the Ear wax
I noticed the other day that my son has a bit of earwax in his ear. Right where the little circle spot going into the eardrum is . It is just far enough in there that I can't reach it with a washcloth.

I would use a q-tip to get it out but this is the boy who will stick anything into an orifice regardless of whether or not it is a good idea! So, um, I won't be giving him any ideas.

I have decided to leave it in there. This way when he doesn't listen I can blame it on the earwax.

Me: "Boobutt, pick that mess up now!"
Boobutt: (continues on with his business, taking no notice of his mother)
Me: "Darn that earwax, foiled again"

What did I say?

January 8, 2005

Aeden: I sit on Mom's lap?
Me: No, I am going to type.
Aeden: I sit on Mommy's lap?
Me: What did I say?
Aeden: I say........yes!

Jokester

January 8, 2005

It is snowing today...a lot! Unfortunately, we had to go to the grocery store to get this weeks groceries (and milk), so we headed out this morning. Everyone went to the grocery store this morning.

It was so busy I had to put Aeden in the cart, against his will, because he kept walking off to "fix" things with his tools. It was just too busy for that. One dad even told his child to look at the good boy riding in the cart. I laughed.

So anyway, we got our groceries and while Eric was paying, I pulled Aeden to the side to get him bundled up. We started with his jacket. I was holding it up like normal and he was facing it. He went to put his arms in as if the jacket was going to go on backwards. After doing this twice, I exapseratedly told Aeden to stop.

His response: I just teasing mom, I just teasing!.

Tease

January 5, 2005



Just recently (like the last couple of weeks) I have started explaining teasing to Aeden. I will tell him that Daddy is just teasing him, and Aeden will say "Daddy stop tease me!" in a highly indignant tone.
However, Aeden gives as good as he gets in the teasing department and one of his favorite phrases is "Ha ha HA!".

No eat cookies

January 5, 2005

I made up some choc. chip cookies last night and Eric told Aeden he could have one after he ate his chicken. Aeden came in and told Eric not to eat his cookies.

Aeden: No eat my cookies.
Daddy: I will eat the cookies if you don't eat your chicken.
Aeden: No my eat the cookies, ha ha ha!
Daddy: No I will eat all the cookies, ha ha ha!

This continued on until both boys collapsed in a fit of giggles. You really had to see it to get the full effect. lol

Ages

January 5, 2005

according to Aeden.
New Year's Eve we were having a big picnic in the living room and Aeden was chowing down. Somehow we got on the topic of cakes, and Aeden was telling us how he was 3.
So I asked him how old Mommy was. He thought about it, and thought about it, then said "4".

Then we asked how old Daddy was. He thought about it and said "10, Daddy go to school". ROFL
I think I am going to have to start talking to Aeden about how when you are 4 or 5 you go to school, not when you are 10. :P

Later we were telling MIL about this and asked Aeden how old she was...apparently she is "5".
I thought it was cute that everyone was older than him.
