the joys of boys

Ok, so this is totally out of left field.
Yesterday my wife is changing my sons diaper, and he says, let me see my doop momma.
So she says, ok, he looks in his diaper and says, "it's Ginormous!" She responds, yes, it is.
Then he says It's a ginormous monster! to which she replies... Lol!!!!
later in the evening she is re-telling the story to me, and then he says, Mommy I think I dooped, can I see it this one is Ginormous too~! I bet it is, I bet it is...
I am cracking up and I say, uh, ok..?
so we change his diaper, it's not ginormous, and he says, I think the next one will be ginormous mommy.

What a riot!
This was not shared by anyone with Boys excpet fo rmy aunt pat, who had a stoyr about her son seeing his doop in the bath tub floating around and said, look mommy, boat!

Boys will be boys.

making new friends

We met some really nice people at our newly initiated parenting/tot group.
Lux liked all the kids, we were driving from the meeting spot to the lunch spot and we had a chance to talk in private. We said, so what did you think of the kids? he said, well they are a bit bossy, they are not like Javier. Then he said, yeah but they are gonna move away soon.

Awww so sad.
We were skyping with Javier the other day and he and my son were both putting their hands ont he screen to touch each other's faces. It was really hard to watch.

lately

So, recently my son has been blowing me away with his incredible skills.
For instance, the other day he said, "mommy, if we cant find all the pieces to the puzzle, we can just improvise!" Uh, what?
I just can't believe what come out of his mouth.
Also, yesterday, we were talking about the weather, I said, well summer is moving into fall, that's why it's a bit more chilly than usual. he said" Mommy, I love the fall, the leaves come down fromt he trees, and then you can pick them up and throw them in the air, and then you rake them up into the bags!" so I'm looking at him dumbfounded and realize that it's been a year since we did that! Then I say, "That's right baby, that's exactly what we do in the fall. Then he says, I know, mommy, I know.

The other night, I was laying in bed withhim, he was cuddling before falling asleep, he grabs my face to get as close as he could to his face and says, buddies, mommy, we're buddies. I said, Aww sweetheart, I love you, he says I love you too mommy, we're buddies, I loveyou mommy, then he starts kissing me on the face, he kisses my forehead, my lips, my cheeks, my earlobes, and my chin. then lays back on his back and sweetly drifts off to sleep.

You can't make this stuff up!
I was just covered in love at that moment. Amazing!

the result

Well the traveling went really well, he did fine he didnt start missing me until day 4 whcih is pretty darn good. 2 days after I got back, he had a meltdown, serious separation anxiety and that is to be expected. All in all the entire trip was fantastic. I got re-energized about Scentsy! and I am totally committed to making this business work!
I am focused on recruiting and building my team.

Scentsy is going to take us into next year with a lot of success, and a lot of happiness.

traveling

Well, in about a week I will be heading off to Salt lake city for 5 days to go to the Scentsy Convention.
I cant wait to see what Scentsy has for us and how this will help me build my business.
I am a bit worried about how my wife and son will do while I am gone, but I am sure they will have a great time.
I think it will be good for both of them to have several days without me around, so they can re ly on each other and grow together. Maybe they will be closer when I get back.

I am also starting a parenting group for my area. I am trying to find like minded people who are interested in making new friends and als having our kids connect. I hope some people start joining.

Maybe i am the only one who wants friends?
