Weston: Mamma, I need to talk to the baby. Open your mouth.
Me: *opens mouth wide*
Weston: *shouts into my open mouth* BABY! CAN YOU HEAR ME? I'M YOUR BIG BROTHER!
Me: I think he can hear you better if you just talk to my tummy.

Mike put Weston in time-out for not listening. Then he came and put me in time out for online shopping.

At night, before bed, we go upstairs and check on the sleeping boys;

Weston is always asleep in the same position he was in when we turned the light off. Snug in his bed, cuddling George.

When we check on Dallin, the air vent is pulled up out of the floor and who knows what toys have been stuffed down there; the wipes are all pulled out of their container and they are in piles all over the room; boxes of old clothes have been pulled out of the closet and are thrown all over the room; the bed has been pushed away from the wall and Dallin is asleep under it.

Weston: Mom, why do you lock the door when we leave, but if daddy is home you don't lock it?
Mom: We lock the door to keep out bad guys. If daddy is home, he can beat up the bad guys.
Weston: *swells with pride* yeah!

A week later, while leaving daddy at home:
Weston: Don't forget to leave the door open so daddy can get the bad guys.

A week later, daddy isn't home:
Weston: Mommy, I don't see any bad guys. Would you leave the door open?
Mom: Sorry bud, I just don't trust George's ability to fight the bad guys.
Weston: *disappointed* aww

We have been showing Dallin videos of the Olympic gymnasts because we think he is a budding gymnast. Now when he jumps off the bed/couch/dresser/etc, we say "stick the landing" and he puts his arms up.

Weston: Daddy, you need to go to the office so mommy can have money!
Daddy: Huh?
Mommy: He thinks if you work from home you are not making any money.

We had dinner out at Cafe Rio. They have a big bowl of mints for after dinner and Weston asked if he could have one. I said, "Sure. Go and get one."Weston replied, "I can't go by myself! People will think I'm an orphan!!!!"

Weston asked the other day what "mighty" means. I said it was something "big and strong". This weekend we had a big storm come through and it broke trees and knocked out power for 3 days. Weston keep referring to the "mighty storm".

"no somersaults at the dinner table."
