One-liners from the crib

Here are my favorite Grayson quotes of late...

This morning after breakfast, he tapped me on the leg and said "Mama, I wanna go to space. And get a stah (star)."
"Okay have a nice trip!" I responded.

Later, in the car, he announced "I'm gonna have a good abbitude today!" I was so excited he came up with that on his own, without my prompting, that I responded "That is so good buddy!" I'm sad to report that about 3 minutes later my "abbitude" went downhill after a frustrating parking experience. Pretty positive "do as I say, not as I do" isn't an effective parenting motto.

Most mornings one of the first things I ask Grayson when I get him out of bed is "Did you sleep well?" I've been extra foggy lately I guess because a couple of days I've accidently asked "How did you sleep?" His response every time..."I sweep on pillow wif my bwanket and animals."
Of course.

He's been fighting naps and bedtime a little harder lately. He has no shame when it comes to stall tactics. Reading books, several drinks of water, requesting a song to be sung, rubbing his back, his blanket laid out a certain way. He also usually cries for the opposite person of whoever is putting him to bed. The other night he got creative and kept saying "I want Yeye! I want Yeye!"
No buddy, even doting aunts cannot keep you from going to bed.
