Is that a Staple in your nose?

I sometimes wish I was a great journaler (I know the word is probably journalist, but I'm not talking about being a writer but one who actually writes in their journal...) I've thought about carrying around a recorder with me all day just so at the end of the day I can write down all the funny things that come out of my 3 year olds mouth. He uses words and phrases like "I generally don't" or " I suppose it would be" or "If I must" or "beep I'm not here right now. Leave a message." He talks like he's an adult and I really think he thinks he is... The other day we were having new carpet installed- woo woo- and he insisted that he needed to help the carpet guys. I kept having to call him back into the family room so that they could actually do their work. (The estimator guy told us he wouldn't charge us for his assistant (Ty) who helped him with the measuring tape and knowing which room was which. Anyways so back to the carpet guys. T was talking to one and I over heard him ask the guy if he had a staple in his nose? Apparently the guy had a nose ring and T thought it was a staple as the guy was using a staple gun on the carpet. It was hilarious. T kept telling him that he should be more careful with the staple gun that it was dangerous and if the guy wanted T could show him how to use it properly so that he wouldn't get anymore staples in his nose. Oh how I had wished I had that conversation on tape. It's definitely on my top 20 replays in Heaven!

Awesome! I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever need handy man advice. Ty is my man! What a fine future son-in-law :)

It's great to read your updates and sounds likes things are going well. Ty is getting so big and grown up, where does the time go?!?!
