So Ty has this thing about answering people when they talk to him, meaning he barely answers or answers so quietly no one can hear him.  I’ve gotten on his case for it before.  I’ll tell him “Ty, when people talk to you , you have to answer them”.  He did it again last night,… Continue reading No Derp Face

When we got home tonight, Ty and I saw a pair of robins in the yard doing what birds do to make new birds 🙂  Ty knows the basics; that a woman has eggs and a man has sperm, and those have to come together to make a baby.  But he’s never come out and… Continue reading The birds and the… well, just the birds

Ty, Ken and I were playing Minecraft online together over the weekend.  Ty and I were in the computer room, and Ken was on the phone, on speaker.  All of a sudden Ty pipes up “I’m building a dildo!”   I did a complete spit-take, and Ken said “he didn’t just say what I think he… Continue reading Dild…uh-oh

This morning after we left Kenny’s on our way back up to Ken’s, it came out in conversation that Kenny had offered to go to Dunkin’ and get us donuts, but that we had declined.  Ty, sounding aghast, said to me from the back seat “there were donuts and you said no???  you’re dead to… Continue reading You’re Dead to Me

Tyler and I were in my room the other day when all of a sudden, out of the blue, he says “mama if you die I want to die too. There is no living without you or daddy”. I didn’t know seven-year-olds had such deep thoughts! I wasn’t sure how to respond so I told… Continue reading Deep Thoughts

After story time last night, Ty rolled over and pulled the blankets up to his chin.  I was stretched out on the bed beside him, and decided to get some snuggle time in.  I wrapped my arm around him, and asked “is this ok?”.  he sighed and in a sleepy, quiet voice, answered “perfect”.  yes,… Continue reading Perfect

Ty made a sarcastic remark to me the other day.  Just in case I didn’t pick up on it, a moment later he tells me “mama, do you realize that was my sarcactus voice?”

Since I got my new iPad, the old one has de facto become Ty’s (don’t tell him I said that!).  I let him arrange and add/subtract whatever apps he wants.  One day I needed to use it for something, and found that he had put all of his apps into folders (apparently he’s a proponent… Continue reading Super Cool Games

Tyler was really wound up and bouncing off the wall as we were playing minecraft with his Uncle Ken.  I basically told him to slow down and “use his inside voice” and he said “mommy, don’t you know I was born to talk?  Before I was born the world was too quiet, and then I… Continue reading ALL the Words…

Ty was playing around asking Siri silly questions on the way home, and one of he responses sounded like she said something about a bomb.  I wondered if she would have a canned funny response if you told her “I have a bomb” so I told ty to tell her that.  He did, but she… Continue reading Not Ready for That Talk Just Yet
