He cracks me up...

A few Riserisms to lighten your day... well, at least they crack me up...

The otehr day while playing in the tub with some glow bracelets left over from Halloween, he asked me to put them on him... I put some around his neck, his wrists and on his ears. I told him that he looked great. Then He called to Karl to come and look at him. Karl came in and said "Wow... Who are you supposed to be?" Riser Thought a minute smiled and said "Barack Obama!!!" Hmmmm not quite sure what he meant there....

As we were getting in the car the other night He looked at Karl and said "Dad, lift me into the moon!"

We called my mom the other day and He excitedly took the phone and said "Hello Grandma Marlene!! Are you at your house? Are you playing with Thomas the Tank Engine and Henry?" ...Really, who wouldn't want to play with Thomas and Henry all day?

At family dinner a few weeks ago, Riser was having such a great time dancing with his cousin Kennedy (who he loves). His cousin Matthew thought it looked like a lot of fun too, and tried to join in... Riser didn't like that and had a complete melt down. Karl took him in another room to calm him down and talk to him. Karl: "You really like dancing with Kennedy huh?"
Riser "Uh huh"
Karl "But You need to let Matthew play too."
Riser"NO!!"
Karl "Riser, Matthew likes to dance too."
Riser "Daddy, you dance with Matthew and I will dance with Kennedy"

Anyway, funny boy... hope we made you smile!

I love the things kids say...It's always very logical in their minds.

Just got the naughty and nice-o-meter. Brooklyn is mostly nice and Rylee is mostly naughty. No surprises!
