Wedgie!!!

Last night Will and Raleigh came in, hiked their pants up real high and paraded around the house with their self inflicted wedgie. They were really proud of them...so I took pictures! I'm sure that one day they will really appreciate their mama taking so many pictures of them and documenting this time in their lives. They'll also appreciate the picture I took of their bottoms. They were SOOOO thrilled to turn around, shake their bottoms at me, and sing! :)

My boys and food

I've written many times before on the differences in my boys and food. Basically, Raleigh likes to eat and Will really doesn't.
Now, Will eats french fries...and junk....and apples/bananas on a regular basis, but thats it. He likes hot dogs, pasta, and chicken nuggets okay. He recently started eating chicken legs, which is a miracle. He eats no veggies. He won't eat eggs or any breakfast meat.
Raleigh, on the other hand, will eat almost anything. He is easy to please...just like his daddy.
Tonight we had meatloaf, rice-a-roni, and mashed potatoes. Ral was pumped and enjoyed 3 servings of meatloaf. He sang my praises, telling me "You're the best chef in the whole world, Mom. You make the best food. You are so good I can never replace you."
Will instantly proclaimed, "But I don't eat meatloaf!"
I gave Will one bite of meatloaf to eat in exchange for a piece of chocolate pound cake. He began whining instantly. He ended up in the floor pitching a fit telling me that the meatloaf would make him sick and that it would kill him.
He finally agreed to the one bite. As soon as it hit his lips he started coughing and gagging. It took 2 bites to get down one bite of meatloaf....and coughing/gagging until he was red faced.
But...he did it!

Coffee

Will loves to drink my coffee. Always has....always will I guess. He used to drink it, smile, and proclaim, "Mom, I a little rat!"

Now he is into coffee breaks. He had a mug of water the other night and Mike took it away b/c it was bedtime. Will began to break down into a 10 minute fit that consisted of him crying about Daddy "ruining my coffee break."

Just a while ago he got my cup of coffee, sat down and told me he was having a coffee break. He then told me that the coffee has a familiar flavor.
Wondering what that could be and where he learned those words, I asked him what the familiar flavor was. He put his chin in his hands like he was thinking, looked at me and said, "Monster Slime. Mom. Monster slime."

Speech

Will says a few things in a "different" way. My favorite is when he yells for Raleigh and says, "Bwu-der!"
We have a guest guinea pig this weekend, in addition to Pepper, named Saturn. Will makes this into a 3 syllable name, "Sat-ur-ren"
I'm making yeast rolls tonight that Will is calling, "Easter Rolls" !

Sometimes when I say things to Will, he really acts like he has no clue what Im talking about. When I ask him if he speaks English...he always tells me no! :)

A sweet sound

Will asked his brother to read a book. Ral is doing a GREAT job of reading it to his brother. In fact, Ral said he wanted to read the whole book before he plays x-box today!

Cold, cold, and colder

Matching Jammies

wow...are my boys cute or what??

Playing

The boys were playing restaurant yesterday. Ral created a drive through. He wanted to make sure that people who didn't have money would be able to get food as well. We were pondering names for the place when Will suggested "Chez Platypus" Yeah, we watch a lot of Phineas and Ferb. I suggested "Chez Raleigh" but Ral got on his headset and said, "Welcome to Chez Raleigh, may I take your order?" He informed me that it didn't sound good so they decided on the Crusty Crab.
Ral didn't like me taking his picture, so Will stepped in as his bodyguard to protect him from the photographers. Ral informed me, "And mom...don't put this on your blog, either!"
So...here I am putting it on my blog.

Singing

Will loves to sing. Just a few minutes ago he headed to the bathroom with his usual, "Mom, call me when I'm done!" Now he is singing JINGLE BELLS and clapping while he is on the toilet! :)

Go BUCKEYES!!!!!
