Rally Diapers!

We were watching the game again tonight, and Gabe was enjoying himself right along with us. He found a diaper (it was clean) in a basket in the hallway and brought it out to the living room. He was standing in front of the couch waving it around just like the people in the crowd waving their rally towels. I asked him if he was waving his rally diaper, and he got so excited! He whirled it even harder and smiled from ear to ear! Too bad we didn't get video.

Here are a couple recent Ladan conversations:

Yesterday
We were getting ready to take the boys to Parents' Night Out, so we put a fleece top on Ladan. Chet told him he was a cool dude. He came to find me and said, "Look, Mommy, I'm a COOL DUDE!" There's obviously no lack of self-confidence here.

Last Night
Earlier in the evening, I explained to Ladan that Horseland would be on in the morning (it's his favorite Saturday show). Fast forward a few hours... I was getting Ladan settled into his bed for the night...

Me: See you in the morning.

Ladan: And then we'll wake up? And we can watch Horseland... and you'll tell me it's not on yet?

Ha! This DOES happen just about every Saturday. On Friday night I tell him that we'll be able to watch Horseland the next morning. Morning comes. Ladan shoots out of bed and shouts with his arms pumping in the air, "I'm ready to watch Horselaaaaaand!" And Horseland isn't on yet (it doesn't show until 11:30)... so he has to wait. The good news is that he didn't wake up until 11:15 today, so he only had to wait about 15 minutes. Not too bad!
