Three Things Bohdin Likes

We were driving to Costco yesterday and I mentioned that Daddy would be home the next day but possibly after he went to sleep. I asked him what he missed about daddy. He said playing. After a long pause he said "There is something I like more." That something is candy. As we kept talking he said "What I love about Nyla is when she runs. That makes me want to run." (The two of them have had a blast this week running around the house) Bohdin went on to say "I like 3 things - candy, tv, and Nyla." Neither Buddy nor I made the original list. He did later revise it to include both mommy and daddy on the list for a total of 5 things he likes. He also changed tv to Tom and Jerry. He is in love with that cartoon right now.

We were leaving Costco and I noticed that Bohdin was still chewing his last bite of food. When I noticed I apologized and told him that we could sit down and wait while he finished eating. He said "No. I can keep walking. I don't need my feet to chew."

Buddy's grandmother made the kids two dolls for Christmas. Nyla has really enjoyed playing with them. Yesterday she layed on them, carried them, and then tried to cut the hair with a knife.

 
 

I don't really know what is going on in this picture. Just lounging.

We were running late this morning since I was meeting somebody at eleven. I asked him if he could pick a book up for me at the library that was on hold. I didn't want to unbuckle Nyla and then rebuckle her. Bohdin knows where the reserved items are held. The library labels the books with a piece of paper with the patron's last name rubber banded to the book. I told him the letters in our last name and then Bohdin says "Write it down so I can match the pattern". When he said it again I said I couldn't do it while driving. "I didn't mean while you are driving. I meant when you stop the car." I did end up going in to help him. He couldn't find the right book. It was a difficult task since there are lots of books to choose from and he doesn't know that they are in alphabetical order.

We were going to stop at the comissary quickly after the library. Bohdin had found some change around the house and was going to use it to buy some candy. As we were leaving the library he noticed a Berenstein Bear book for sale that he had just enough money for. He decided on getting a book instead of the candy. He might want to revise his list of things he likes again.

We had to stop at the commissary for prune juice. Nyla has developed a fear of pooping and she needs to get the poop out. She drank a bit of juice before her nap. If that doesn't work we'll go to the store and get something else tonight.
