Stuff Mason Says

As Mason’s knowledge of life in general continues to grow he has really started to impress/humor me with his logic as he vocalizes it to us.  Rather than horde this information to myself, I think it is time to start sharing his wisdom with the remainder of the world or at least the few people who follow us.

My first entry into this new series took place a couple of days ago in the kitchen where Mason was jumping in his new basketball shoes.  Naturally, being a direct descendant of me his vertical is extremely limited and so I started to tell him he needed to jump higher or at the very least just clear 1/4 of an inch when he jumps.  He quickly retorted with “Dad, it’s gravity.  It’s holding me down.” 

I didn’t have the heart to explain to him that it was a lot more than just gravity.

Milestones…

This past Wednesday Melanie picked up the boys from school and Cutler’s teacher told Cutler to tell Melanie what he did that day and his immediate response was “played with legos.”  Leave it up to Cutler to bury the lead in a big fashion.  The teacher was expecting him to tell Melanie that he had used the toilet to potty twice and poop another time.  He kept it up all week, but for some reason doesn’t have the same desire when he gets home and so aside from a poopcident during a bath on Thursday, it stays in the diapers at home.  We are thrilled that he has taken that first step and can’t wait until he starts to practice it at home.  Then again, we might be happy to wait for it to start at home until he learns to wipe himself as well.  🙂
