Question of the day.

Questions, questions & more questions...Oh, the mind of a 3-year old is an amazing thing. Every day there has been a new question from our Mr. Porter.
This morning it was, "Why do I have little hands?"

How to make a birthday cake.

Porter & I made our very first birthday cake together for Daddy's birthday. Oh, what fun!





HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DADDY!!!

Good Question!

It was -17 degrees this morning...Brrr!!!
On our way to daycare Porter asked, "Mama, why do birds live outside?"
VERY GOOD QUESTION, MY SON! ESPECIALLY TODAY!!!
I think we've got a smart one on our hands...

Baby, it's COLD outside!


It was sooo cold this morning that on our way into daycare, we could see our breath.
Porter said, "Mama, why am I blowing smoke??"
Try explaining THAT to a 3-year old!

Just sing it!

Lately our bedtime routine has incorporated singing a few songs after we read books. The lineup usually consists of "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer," the Barney "I love you" song & "Happy Birthday." Each night, I ask before we sing "Happy Birthday" whose birthday it should be...usually I get an answer like Daddy or Mama or Papa.
Tonight when I asked who we should sing Happy Birthday to, Porter said "I don't care Mama, just sing it!"

Wings

Today Porter said to me, "Mom, can you make me some wings?"
I told him I thought maybe I could. But that it would take some time.

The next morning he said, "Mom, I could really use some wings."

Follow your dreams & fly away, my dear sweet boy...

Kissing Machine


Today, Daddy was doing the "kissing machine" with Porter as he often does...Both laughing crazily until Porter suddenly said, "Turn it off!"
