What would you do if your DVD player stopped working 4 hours into an 8 hour car trip? If you're a 3 year old, you would turn everything you say into song...today's tune is from a Dora DVD...take it away Harrison!! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
I can't imagine where Harrison would ever get his stubborn attitude sometimes!?! For those who haven't known me for too long, to say that I was stubborn as a child would be putting it lightly. I wasn't too big on people telling me to do things. Ha. Funny how the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!! Harrison was not happy about me telling him that he had to take a nap today so he said, "fine! But I'm not sleeping in my bed!!". I told him that he could even sleep in my bed if he wanted to...he wasn't interested so I said "fine" and walked out, fully thinking he would move after I walked away. I guess he really showed me!
So long as he sleeps, I guess it doesn't really matter what he chooses for a bed!
Lately Davis has loved playing with balls. If he sees one on the floor amongst other toys, he inevitably goes for the ball. I realized a few days ago that he was trying to throw the ball like Harrison. It cracks me up because he always throws it behind his shoulder...I think we needs to work on our technique...
We took the week to come to Alabama to visit my bestie, Teresa and my sister. Harrison has been having so much fun hanging with his buddies that he doesn't get to see very often. I have been trying to take pictures throughout the week but it's always so hard to remember. Harrison & Madeline posing:
Davis and his sweet friend, Paxton. Davis just crawls all over the place and gets into everything. It was amazing to see the difference in boys vs. girls because Paxton would just sit happily with her toys, smiling and dancing.
When visiting with the kids, its always hard to really try and catch up since we spend most of the time mediating and chasing, but we had a great time! Next up was visiting my big sis in Tuscaloosa. Harrison just looks up to his cousins so much so it's always fun to watch him run around with them. This first picture clearly shows the theme of our visit...
This is a picture of the boys at a restaurant watching a video on my iPhone. My nephew, Trey, got an itouch for his birthday so both Jack & Harrison wanted to play games just like him. Julie also has an itouch so the boys would walk around with our iPhones/itouchs, making sure they were all playing the same games. Thankfully the games they wanted to play were all free. I felt like it was a glimpse into my future since boys love video games so much. Hopefully I have a few more years before I have to really start dealing with the video game craze! The other funny event involved the water squirter...see below:
Harrison & Jack discovered that when you put your hand over the bottom of the squirter where the water come out, when you push down the handle, it will make a "tooting" sound. They thought this was hilarious! I can tell you that my sisters and I never would have played this game when we were little!! Crazy boys! Overall we had a great week, it went too fast as always! I will end with a cute video of Davis motoring around the pool. We went with Julie and her boys and he loved that he could touch the bottom of the kiddie pool, so Jr would walk around the pool, chasing the toys...
