Rowen News

Rowen in growing up so fast! He is, for the most part, a very good little boy, very well manored and sweet as can be but he can be quite bossy and demanding at times as well. I thought I'd share with you a few of his new sentences that he has been using quite frequently:

*If we ask him to do something like help us pick up his toys and he doesn't want to do it we usually take him by the hand and move him in the direction of the toys, or whatever it may be...he says "NO, LET GO OF ME!"

*If he wants candy or fruit snacks before dinner and we tell him that he can't have any until after dinner...he says "NO, I HAVE SOME." Which leads to "NO, LET GO OF ME" as we are taking him off the step stool he has moved under the snack cabinet.

*When he has pooped and needs to be changed, I ask him if he pooped...he says "I NO POOP MOM, NO NEED DIAPER CHANGE." You probably know what that leads to...I usually have to chase him and pick him up to change him and he proceeds to say "NO, LET GO OF ME!"

*Rowen often gets things reversed. When he wants me to hold him he says "I HOLD YOU, MOM, I HOLD YOU" or when he wants to help me with something he says "I HELP ME, MOM." He is such a cutie.

*A few other things he says almost every night are: "Mom, I go swing", "Mom, I go outside with Facie", "No Dad, that's my Mom", "No, No, Facie, my fries", "Mom, where the titty go...the titties gone mom, where's she at?" (meaning the Mya, the kitty) He also gets very disappointed when Papa or Uncle Travis leave. He will tell pout and come to me the next day and say "Papa don, Mom" or "Trabis, don, Mom". When I tell him that they went back to Kansas he brings me my phone and says, "Call Trabis!" It's pretty cute.
