Rylans new speech skills...

I was just reading over Rylans speech therapist's notes for the day. She always takes such great detailed notes! anyways, today she wrote down a bunch of sentences that rylan said in their session... and i thought i would share... so do me a favor, imagine little rylan, the cutest little kid you ever saw, little tiny framed kid glasses, with his adorably sweet singsong voice, and then read all the cute things he said!

RYLAN- "He turned it off!"
"Oh, no! A thunderstorm!"
"Whoa! Whats that!"
"I got two airplanes- here's one!"
"They're little!"
"I want a towel too!"
"Its too big for you!"
"Eat my finger!"
"Watch out! A purple plane!"
One of these days, i am going to get out the video camera and record his cute little voice! I hope i never forget it!

fireflies...

So the boys LOVE listening to music in the car. this morning, on our way to our new friend katie's house, the song 'soul sister' by train came on. the boys got all excited, because at first, they thought it was the fireflies song (by owl city). heres the little conversation they had about it in the back of the car...

CADEN- "HEY- its firefly song!"

RYLAN- "no- it not firefly song"

CADEN- "it IS firefly song!"

RYLAN- "no, it a GIRL song!" (i think he was sorta remembering that i told him the name
was called soul SISTER)

CADEN (just to be controversial)- "NO, its a BOY song!"

And on and on they go, back and forth for about a minute. Now this may not seem a blogworthy post to you- but for two little boys who have been in speech therapy for over a year- and just started talking in full sentences like 2 weeks ago- this was HUGE!! and they wer going back and forth, like a regular cute conversation, over some random song that was playing on the radio! it was so stinkin cute!

NOT!

MOMMY- "Ok rylan, its your turn to get washed! come here and stand up."

RYLAN- " NO mommy!"

MOMMY- "Rylan, it is time to get washed. Now you are going to get washed whether you want to or not!"

he looks up at me, and with a half smile he says...

RYLAN- "NOT."

And then he continues playing. little stinker!

Tonight, after we had put the kiddos to bed, about twenty minutes later, i heard little chattering sinsongy voices chittering about the bedroom! rather than go in and tell them to be quiet, i figured id just listen to them and see what they were chattering about!

They were playing doctor (the 2 year old kind, not the 7 year old kind- if you know what i mean! )

Caden would say-

CADEN- " Im sick, ry, im sick."

RYLAN- "Im a doctor! come here!"

He then proceeded to sing-

RYLAN- "I got medicine- i got medicine- i gonna eat it! (he slurps two or three times, really loudly). I drink it ALL GONE!"
Caden proceeds to tell rylan again that he is sick, that he needs medicine, and rylan just keeps singing about how he drank it all! not talking, but that sweet little singsongy voice that little kids have! it was too cute. although i felt bad for poor Caden and his pretend 'owie'. I hope Rylan went over and kissed him all better after i stopped listening!
