A Glimpse Into Our Day

I just had to document this funness!

 "Mommy, will you take a picture of me with my Toy Story friends and my Toy Story blanket?"

"Oh mom, we forgot Woody!"

"And Bullseye needs to be in it!"

"Bonner, do you want to be in my picture?"

"Sure, Ian!"

"I need Abby!"

Ian: "Oh mom, my Chuggington friends need to meet my Toy Story friends!"

Bonner just jumped in the picture and thought it was hilarious!

Ian: "And my favorite bunny!"

Bonner: "Take a picture of Ian and I will sneak in again!"

I kid you not - after I took all these pictures, Bonner actually asked me, "Mommy, what is film?"  I thought to myself - "It's what we used to use to capture these crazy pictures - thank goodness, we don't have that anymore!"

Bonner-Lingo

• "Ready, Steady, Go!" (instead of Ready, Set, Go)
• Me: "Do you think you can spell D-O-G?" I coaxed her by sounding out the letters and she said, "D" - "O" - "G"!  I excitedly replied, "Bonner, that's great, you just spelled DOG!" She said, "Well, then let's spell PUPPY!"
• "I can read this book, mom!  It's called The Very Hungry Callapitter" (instead of Caterpillar)
• Bonner: "Mommy, can I help you make the sandwiches?" Me: "Sure!" Bonner" "When I grow up, I want to be a mommy that makes sandwiches!"

Ian-isms

• Bonner had a runny nose so I was giving her some medicine one day.  Ian said, "I need some medicine, too, mommy.  I have the 'achoo's'!"
• The children have been playing school together alot lately and I just think it's really funny that Ian puts on the high-heeled shoes and calls himself "Mrs. Neely!"
• Ian: "Why can't we see Jesus, mommy!"  Me: "Well, Ian, he lived many years ago and died on the cross for us, remember?  Now he is in heaven!"  Ian: "How did he get to heaven?"  Me: "God, his father, took him out of the tomb, remember?"  Ian, obviously not satisfied with my proper answer said, "I think God sent a cloud down to him and he rode the cloud back up to heaven!"
• Ian asked, "How did God make us?"  Bonner replied, "He just gave us a head and a body and arms and legs and feet and socks!"
• Ian was in the bathtub the other day and he did not want me to wash his hair just yet but he wanted more water in the bathtub.  I said, "Ian, you have 2 options: 1) I can wash your hair and give you more water or 2) Gigi can wash your hair in a few minutes and give you some more water. I'll let you think about it while I check on your sister."  I returned and asked him what his decision was, "Mom, I have a great idea, you give me more water and then Gigi can wash my hair.  You need to learn to share!"  (Nice reasoning from a 3 year old)
• Ian has this little Melissa and Doug wooden boy that he can dress up with all the sports outfits.  He had it out the other night and he asked me, "Mommy, what does he need to play cocky?" (aka "hockey")
• Ian slipped tonight putting on his pajamas and his knee came down on a little plastic Elmo.  He immediately asked for a bandaid so I got one (placebo).  After I put it on his knee, he said, "Mommy, I changed my mind.  I don't want to be a Cowboy when I grow up, I want to be a dentist and help people's knees!"  I said, "Ian, dentists look at your teeth and doctors look at your knee." He said, "I just switched it up!"
