We were snowed in for a few days (due to what Oklahomans are calling the Snowpocalypse 2011). During this time, the boys and I spent almost a full week together. I honestly think that by day 6 they were tired of me and really missing Grandma and Grandpa. I thought I would list a few of the cuter things that they did during our time together...
I was putting Brooks down for a nap. He always wants me to make up a story, but he gives me specifics about what he wants. (Ex. I want a story about 2 reindeer and a moose. Or I want a story about a lion and his lion cub.) So, he tells me he wants to hear a story about a butterfly. So, I start out, "Once upon a time, there was a little caterpillar..." He says, "No, Mommy. It is already a butterfly, not a caterpillar." Seriously?!
At one point, it was snowing really hard outside. Brooks had taken a toilet paper roll and was running around blowing into it. He was looking out the window and said, "I've been calling the buffalo bison. They must be lost or in their homes all toasty warm because they haven't come to my house yet."
We took the boys sledding with some close friends of ours- the Howards. Ryden absolutely loved it. The next day, he had gotten the sled back out and was sitting on it when I came into the playroom. He was totally ready to go again!
We went to the Howards' to watch the Superbowl. We had a better time than any Superbowl party we ever had before kids. The Robinsons came with their 2 kiddos.
Brooks came running out of Haley's room screaming, "Mom, Haley's mad at me." When I asked why, he said, "Because she wants me to be the princess and I don't want to be the princess!"
