It's only the beginning

Benjamin is really starting to say cute things and I am really enjoying hearing what his little mind comes up with.

The other night while cudddling in the rocking chair before bed...
Me: " Benjamin we need to say our prayer"
Benjamin: "pray"
Me: Say "Thank you Jesus"
Benjamin: "tank you deesus"
Me: say "I love you Jesus"
Benjamin: "love you deesus"
Me: Say "night night Jesus"
Benjamin: "ni ni deesus"
Me: "Amen"
Benjamin: "Oh Man!" (just like swiper the fox says it on Dora)
______________________________________________
Benjamin has recently learned that he can say "yes" instead of "no" all the time, so yesterday he had thrown his food on the floor (which he has not done in a long time) and he got a spanking and then I made him help me clean up the food and put it back on the plate. I said "Benjamin we don't throw food on the floor because it's not nice and it makes a mess and makes mommy sad. So are we going to throw our food on the floor anymore?"
Benjamin: "Yes"
Me: "you mean No.. No I won't throw it on the floor"
Benjamin: "yes"

In all honesty he is just telling the truth because I know it is not the last time I will have to pick up food off the floor. :)

This morning Benjamin was awake in his crib talking so I went in to get him. He stood up really fast and put his arms up in a questioning manor and said "pet pets... where they go?" (translation: wonder pets.. where did they go?")
Me: Oh Benjamin were the wonder pets in your bed?
Benjamin: Yes!

Found you! Awesome blog! Um . . .did you watch BL last night? CRAZY sad. I actually had to pause it and take a little hyperventilating break. Anyway, it was great to meet you yesterday, and I am definitely going to follow your blogs if you don't mind.
