my big boy

"Mommy, can I have two cheeseburgers? You know I'm a big boy!"

1st week of first grade:

G has been talking about how he wants a friend to come over. He got her, yes I said her, phone number yesterday. He wants to call her. So do I call the mom first, will the mom be mad that her daughter gave out her number, what do I do? I'm not making it a big deal with him but can't believe my baby wants to hang out with a girl! :)

My Smart Boy...

On Tuesday, we went to Barnes and Noble after having lunch with Dennis. Garrison found this book "Don't Smile at a Monkey!" and read the whole thing to me with VERY LITTLE help! I was so amazed and proud of him! They had done such a good job that I let them both pick out a book. So Garrison decided to pick out Carnival at Candlelight which is Magic Treehouse #33! At first I was hesitant because it was a chapter book and I thought it might be too hard. Well, I had him read the first page of the book and he got ALL the words without any help. So, I told him he could get the book. So, that night we started the book. We started by each taking turns reading a paragraph at a time. Before I knew it, he wanted to read it all. He didn't want to take turns but wanted to read it all. Of course he couldn't read every word like Venice or Camelot, but he got adventure, nevertheless, and even sorcerers! So I looked up the book on our AR list at school and found out it is a 3.9 level book so pretty much 4th grade! WOW!!!! My boy is SMART!

Love you G!

Sweet Moments

In car talking to Mama and Papa! He was having such an intellectual conversation with them. Such big words and longer sentences!

After 2nd basketball practice, G was talking to his Daddy...
D said Guess What?
G said Chicken Butt
D said No you did a really good job today!
G said Thanks for teaching me! Guess what?
D said Chicken Butt!
G said No, I love you!

So many cool things he says!!!

G always says some really funny stuff and I try to remember it all and get so mad when I can't remember it to type it in here!!!!

Today he was talking to Papa and having such an intellectual conversation with him! He was talking about the weather, North, South, East, West, about going to Disneyland for his birthday! And there were so many other things but of course I can't remember them. I need to start recording it on my phone so I can type it up later. I can't believe he's going to be 6!!!!!
