Funny Moments

One of the things I just love about Hayden is that he makes me laugh just doing his "Hayden thing". He's not trying to be funny, or entertaining, he's just Hayden. But he cracks me up! And what's funnier (at least, right now) is that hehates being funny! So he gets really annoyed when you laugh at something, which, unfortunately, only makes me giggle more.

So the other day, I was sitting on the couch, doing some paperwork and catching up some things that were being very neglected. The kids had been bugging me for.ev.er to let them watch tv and it was not happening. I was very much enjoying the Thomas Newman station on Pandora. (Did I tell you we have Pandora now? We do! I'm ecstatic!!) Anyway, Hayden came over and sat down right next to me (no personal space for that child) and then lays his head on my shoulder...

Hayden: I loves you
Me: I love you too buddy
Hayden: No, I loves you mom
Me: I love you too. What do you want?
Hayden: I loves....Oh! Nevermind. (((gets up and walks off and then I hear...))) Sorry Kenzie. No tv.

Later that night, I had relented and let them watch some of the the 2nd Hobbit movie before bed, and Hayden was, of course, sitting right next to me. About halfway through the movie I look over and he's starting to nod off on the couch.

Me: Buddy, are you asleep?
Hayden: Nope.
Me: So you're awake then?
Hayden: Nope.
Me: Well, what are you? Awake or asleep?
Hayden: ((big deep breath)) I don't know.

Five minutes later he was snoring. Lol! And when Brian woke him up to go to bed, he was so upset that he missed the rest of the movie. All the way upstairs he just kept talking about missing the dragon - he loves the dragon. It was about the cutest thing ever!


I do have to tell you another quick little story, but it's about Kierstin. Over the weekend, Kierstin was playing with one of the neighbor's kids (and by playing I mean making those rubberband bracelet things) & I overheard them having "girl talk" (as Kierstin calls it). Her friend was going on and on about One Direction and which boy was cutest and which one she liked more and asked if Kierstin was going to watch some One Direction show/movie thing that was on tv that night. Kierstin told her no, probably not, and her friend had to know why she would miss One Direction (gasp!!). Kierstin cracked me up!! She (very matter-of-factly) said "I don't really like them. There's a lot better music than them. Plus Cosmos is on."

Every other girl her age is obsessed with the boy bands. It kind makes me reminiscent of when I was her age and New Kids on the Block (you know, before they joined together with the Backstreet Boys and became NKOTBSB....which is weird, btw) were super popular. But all of her friends talk about them all the time. And Kierstin just sits there like she has no idea why. She would rather watch Cosmos instead. And if you talk to her anytime in the near future be prepared for her to educate you on everything she's learning. (Just thought I should give you a fair warning.)

But alas, lovely people, It's almost 9 so I should go be productive. I hope you're having a wonderful day!!

Much love <3
