what Stephen said

Henry: "hey mom, do you know what Stephen said?"
me: "no. What did Stephen say? Did he say he likes you?"
Henry: "no. Hey said 'hey!' I think that means he likes me"

by any other name

Henry: "Mommy, did you know that Mr. Pinne's middle name is Henry?"
Me: "Yes, I did know that. His name is Franklin Henry Pinne."
Henry "Franklin Henry Pinne?"
Me: "Franklin Henry Pinne."
Henry: "I think I want to just call him Henry."
Me: "You should probably just call him Mr. Pinne."
Henry. "Flapjacks."

Girl can crawl

Elizabeth crawled today. I put her down in the living room after I fed her and then went to the kitchen to feed the boys breakfast. She'd had enough after about 20 seconds of screaming and decided to take matters into her own hands. Next thing we knew, she was in the kitchen doorway. She's mobile!

LOVE

Elizabeth gave me her first intentional love this week. Snuggled her head into my shoulder when I was carrying her. Wow. So sweet. sob sob.

Live Long and Prosper

You know when the computer asked Spock how he felt and Spock said, "irrelevant"?
Tyson: "I really feel like Spock and I bonded right at that moment."

Also, he asked if we could name our next son "Logic"

Austen's Day

Austen's class was lining up for PE and he said, "Mrs. Pinne I really want to hug you but I'm kind of shy."

She told him, "Well, come here and I will give you a hug."

He proceeded to give her a big hug right there in the hallway in front of the other kids.

She admitted to me she had tears in her eyes. So very precious!

So grateful for my kids' teacher, she loves those kids SO much!

P.S.-Austen is NOT shy!

P.P.S-Austen has a crush on Kaitlyn. He told her and her dad that he likes her dress (dad is a little worried, apparently)

P.P.P.S. Henry waits at the door every day waiting for Kaitlyn too.

He works alone

Austen forgot his lunch yesterday so Ty gave him Henner's and brought Henry home to eat lunch here. Henner was not happy about this so on the way home for lunch Henry is thinking of ways to retaliate and he says "I think I'm gonna erase Austen's game with the 4 and the 3 (43)" The meanest thing he could think of was erasing Austen's mario game! Dad asked him why "because he took my lunch" So Ty told him that he gave Austen his lunch and that he can eat Austen's when he gets home. Henry: "I can eat his lunch!? I guess I won't erase his game with the 4 and the 3"

This is what I imagined he would have looked like.
Henry/Incrediboy/Syndrome: "I learned an important lesson: You can't count on anyone. Especially your heroes."
