Funny Things

It has been awhile since I have blogged. So many cute and funny things have happened.
The boys are starting to really enjoy each others company, which is heartwarming to me since I was questioning if this would ever happen.
The other day I laid Kyle down for his midmorning nap, about ten minutes passed and Conner looked around noticing that Kyle was not in sight. He then asked me, "Where’d Kyle go?" I told him that Kyle had laid down for a nap. He started to cry saying, " NOO Peanut, Peanuttttt. I need my Peanut." I reassured him that Kyle would be up in awhile and smiled inside.
Kyle is really coming into his own. He is a much softer spoken child which is such a contrast to Conner that it has taken a little longer to learn all about him. He loves to be cuddled and held all day. He adores his brother and daddy. The other day we were outside at B's house and Kyle walked over to Conner and tried to hug and kiss him out of the blue. Of course it was more like a wet lick than anything, but Conner laughed and returned the kiss. He tries to do everything his big brother
does.
One more quick story is as some of you know Conner lives and breathes dinosaurs. About a month ago the costume express catalog came in and I was flipping through. There was a page totally devoted to Dinos. I showed Conner and asked him which one did the want to dress up as for Kyle’s party and Halloween. He pointed to the T Rex. I really like to Triceratops and tried to steer him towards it. I thought the t rex was so common. He kept telling me however he wanted to be a T Rex and would walk around roaring like one. Well, I ordered the triceratops anyway thinking that I dino costume is a dino costume and he will be excited anyway. Two weeks went by and the costume arrived. I told Conner to come here his Dino costume was in. He was soooo excited jumping up and down and roaring. I opened the box and began to unravel the triceratops. He took one look at it and big tears rolled down his face. He said, "No mommy, T Rex, T rex." He would even put it on. He cried and kept saying, "I be T Rex." I felt terrible. Even though I didn’t want him to think he can cry and get what he wants I returned the costume and ordered the T REx. I mean, he DID tell me all along he wanted to be a T REX!!!!
