Conversation with Ethan

Ethan: Should we watch Tractor Movie, Mama?
Me: No, Ethan, we've already watched enough tv for today, maybe tomorrow
Ethan: Should we watch Tractor Movie?
Me: Ethan, what did Mama say, not today. We'll talk about it tomorrow
Ethan: Are you sure??? (sweet little voice)
Me: (chuckle, as I've never heard this question before) Yes, I'm sure
Ethan: This one's my favorite (another one I've never heard before)

Yes, this boy DOES love his tractor movies!! I guess there could be other 'trash' that he liked to sit in front of every day, but I still don't want him in front of tv for hours a day. Never the less, a funny little conversation. I've heard him describe a few things since this conversation this past weekend as "his favorite".

He has talked a lot about Dave's surgery. It's the cutest little thing when he says, 'Did daddy have surgeryyyy' (getting high pitched at the end of the word surgery). For those of you that don't know...Dave had Lasik done last week.

We're talking about converting his crib into a daybed to start the transition into a big boy bed. I want him to have time to warm up to the idea of a bed he can get in and out of by himself and then move him into a new bedroom before Baby this July. I don't want to wait until last minute and have him feel like he's just being shoved off for the new arrival. I already have my eye on some construction/tractor sheets and fun decorations to make his new room feel like he'll be king of his new bedroom!! He (hopefully) won't want to sleep in the nursery anymore once I get all the goodies to decorate. All in good time..but, hopefully sometime in Feb we might try out the daybed layout.

Nothing else really new here, Dave studies and I am busy acting as an incubator for #2. :) My 4 month appt is this next Monday - can't wait to hear the little heartbeat again!!

Here are a few pics from visiting the Rochford side last weekend.
