Lately I’ve strayed from talking a lot about the kiddo. No specific reason, I think that the recipes, giveaways and SAHM posts have just taken over. So to make up for this oversight, here’s my list of the top ten ways the kiddo puts a smile on my face.
- He wakes up talking to Elmo.
- When someone sneezes or coughs he says “You’re OK momma?” instead of bless you.
- He narrates what he does, whether it’s running (I running!) or dancing with Elmo (Elmo dancing!).
- He loves to eat with a fork. Even if it’s a muffin at breakfast time. He’ll shout “Need fork!” until I produce the magical utensil.
- He sings “Momma’s car go beep-beep” when I lock it.
- He yells out “Go potty get CAAAANDY”, in the middle of restaurants.
- He’s a good little helper and “cleans” the table, floor or couch with his napkin (which usually ends up in a bigger mess).
- He loves to color and he’s so proud of his creations, especially the big, looping circles that he just figured out how to make.
- Everything is pink. And if it’s not pink, it’s red. If it’s not red, then it must be yellow. If you tell him differently you are met with a blank stare that says, “Momma you just don’t know what you are talking about”.
- He goes to sleep talking to Elmo.
- Ok, just one more. He gives the best hugs and kisses on the planet. These magical hugs and kisses wipe away the worst day and bring tears of happiness to my eyes. How did I get so lucky to have such an amazing little boy?

SO cute! My son is just getting to the “talking” stage, and it’s so much fun to try to decipher what he’s trying to say. #6 made me laugh, because I TOTALLY understand!
LOL! My 18mo is all about a fork & spoon right now too. It’s a combo of good & bad:)
LOL! My 18mo is totally into the fork & spoon stage too. Sometimes that’s good & sometimes that’s bad:)
He sounds like a cutie! I love the “Need fork!” That’s so funny! My oldest daughter (no 4) LOVED Elmo. My 2.5 yo never got into him. I was kinda sad.Especially since I have a ton of left over Elmo stuff! I swear Elmo is who taught my first daughter her colors and letters!

*grin* Thanks for giving me a smile! That was a super sweet post. I know my daughter babbling as she wakes up brings a smile to my face. I can only imagine how cute it is when it’s an actual conversation!
