Crack-up

IMG_6104

Think of the busiest 3 year old you know… multiply it by 100… and now you have Kody!  Yesterday I walked up stairs and could smell something burning.  Instantly I turn to Kody and ask what he’s been doing.  He takes me to the iron, which he so carefully set back on the shelf.  Unfortunately he set in direct contact with a plastic container that was melting!  That it explains the smell, but why is the iron HOT!  He took me to Ryker’s room where proceeds to show me everything he’s ironed.  Ryker’s pants, a pillowcase and a swim diaper.  That would explain the junk all over the bottom of the iron now.  But he’s proud as punch at his accomplishment.  And surprisingly he only had a minor burn on his thumb.

A few of his sayings right now are…

  • Me oh tay (when he falls of his bike or does anything that could result in injury)
  • Me towboy (We get this all the time.  I’m now trying to turn it back on him with potty training… Cowboy’s don’t pee in their underwear!)
  • Me wite it, but…  (he says this for just about anything he doesn’t want to eat)

He’ll be starting speech therapy again in a couple of weeks and hopefully he’ll be able to get the “K” sound again.  I’ve been awful at working with him during the summer.  But it sure makes his speech cute, even if it is wrong!

We’ve been working on potty training for the past couple of weeks.  This is so not my favorite thing!  Luckily he’s poop trained (he did that all himself).  Now if I could just be consistent in potty training.  He was doing really good until he headed up to Honeyville last week.  With Jed and I working on my parents kitchen all the time, I wasn’t very good at reminding him.  We started a sticker chart today so hopefully it’ll be a little bit more incentive.  When he fills the chart up, he gets to spend the night at Tawn’s so he can ride horses!
