3-Year--Old Thoughts

While watching a commercial for "Fishy Crackers:

Ryan: "Ryan really like fishy crackers"
Nana: "Oh?"
Ryan: "Ryan really like fishy crackers"
Ryan: "Nana and Ryan need to go in Nana's car to Wal-Mart to get some fishy crackers."
Nana: "Do you think so?"
Ryan: "Need to get fishy crackers soon"
Nana: "Okay. We'll do that tomorrow"

A day later...
Nana: "Come on let's go to Wal-Mart and get some fishy crackers."
Ryan: Smiles the biggest smile

------------------------------------------

After an hour to two of visiting at the hospital...

Ryan: "I a tired boy. Tired boy."
Me: "Well lay your head on Momma's pillow."
Ryan: Laying down on pillow, "I tired boy."
Ryan: "Tired boy time to go home."

Other things he's said recently:

While playing outside..."Daddy need to get camera and take pictures of Ryan outside." (He must be trying to take care of his momma."

While trying to remove my hospital wristbands..."Time for momma to go home."

With every evening visit to the hospital..."Time to go up the stairs and down the stairs and get some cossee (coffee)."

Last time I was in the wheelchair and we entered the elevator..."Ryan and momma go down the stairs and get some ice ceam." (We were on our way to the doctor.)

While on the way to the hospital..."Momma in the big house."

And here are some recent pictures...


The "surprise" snowball bush in our backyard. I think there are 2 or 3 along the back of the house. We were pleasantly surprised. We weren't sure what the bushes were, but now I think they might be able to stay and I'll incorporate them into the landscaping instead of pulling them out and starting out with nothing.

Playing outside pictures...

I'll do an Evan update tomorrow.
