He was a mean knight...

Oh Robby, Robby, Robby, Robby! Oh how I love that boy. He's hilarious. And he just gets funnier and funnier the older he gets.

The funniest thing lately is just how much he moves his mouth, head, and shoulders AND hands while he's talking! Super animated! It looks like he's chewing the words out of his mouth.

He's been so super into imagination, making up stories, and just overall talking non stop. The other day our friend Maeris, or as Robby says, "Sister Maeris" and her boy Kingston were over (she's his nursery leader and our awesome neighbor friend) and Robby would NOT let me have any kind of conversation with her. I could not finish my sentence because he kept yelling, "Sister Maw-wis! You want to hear anoder funny story? Ok..." and then go on and on about nothing but it was funny.

At one point during their visit Robby stops playing and says with a big smile on his face, "That makes me happy you are here Sister Maw-wis." It was so sweet.

Here he is showing her his card he got from his Babu & Dedu (my parents) for Valentine's day... he's "reading" it to her, but not really...



Translation: "It says Bab... u... and Dyed... u... and the funniest story in the whole world. So I found it. Right heeere. It says... ?? the King and a Knight and a Princess. Oh, and the knight... he was a mean knight..."

And then my camera cut it off but can you just see the expressive-ness of that face? I'll try to get some stories of his on tape but he usually stops when I pull out the camera... I was trying to sneak up on this conversation and it worked but then my camera failed me.

I had some funny Robby stories to share but can't remember them right now! One thing he said that was funny was when he told us, "I'm gonna marry Daddy. Then mommy." Oh, ok. That'll work out I'm sure. But it was very sweet.

Today when he was building a "nest" with rocks outside in the grass and he said it would be a home for someone... "for Jesus.... when he's a little baby..." And he's always asking me to get out the "Activity" aka, nativity, to play with.

Robby likes to watch tv. Yes he likes to watch a good "ho" (show) every now and then... or several times a day... ah we go through phases where I'm a lazy mom and let him watch lots of tv and times where we watch less but still... anyway the point is sometimes, usually in the afternoon, when he's relaxing with a little "ho" he will ask me, "Mom, can you get me water-juice, milk, and cheese crackers?" So I always water down his juice and we call it "water-juice" and then he also wants a cup of milk and cheese crackers are Cheezits.

So I talked about our nap time issue... today we wore ourselves out playing with a friend outside all morning and he fell asleep listening to Backyardigans music which was good cause I needed him to take a nap but then it was hard cause I wasn't sure how long to let him sleep cause I didn't want him to be up all night! I just love how sweet he looks while he's sleeping too... it's so hard to wake him up!


He's often sleeping sideways like this... doesn't look very comfortable...


Love his little face....

But I took a chance and woke him up and luckily he was happy! Also I opened the blinds so he could see that it had started snowing and he thought that was funny...

so we sat on his dresser and watched the snow for a while...


and had a little photo shoot with him making some funny faces...

Tonight while I was having a blast at a Stake Scouting meeting, and Rob was working late, my wonderful friend and visiting teacher Erin was nice enough to come and play with Robby. I came home to find they had had an awesome time playing...



Here's Robby as "Awesome Man" as he called it....


Yes, Robby, you are an awesome little man! :)
