Let's Eat at a Restaurant

December 10, 2011

After Ryder's birthday, it was already 6pm and we were debating if we should go eat at a restaurant or eat at home. Of course, you would rather go to a restaurant (always). At one point, we decided to just go home because we were all tired, and then you chime in, "I think we should go to a restaurant. It would be easier to have someone else cook dinner instead of going home and having to cook." Who is this little man who is so logical and brilliant at 3.5 years old? This is what you said almost verbatim - so calmly and so logically (this is exactly what were thinking). Are you kidding me? Daddy and I just looked at each other like "wow!" It's like talking to a little man, not a 3.5 year old! It's insane sometimes.

We love you amore mio. Daddy and Mamma think you are brilliant!

Santa Claus at Ryder's Birthday - "I already told you Santa"

December 10, 2011

We went to Ryder's 1st birthday party today at Brookhollow Country Club. Ryder is Brook's little brother. You and Brooks went to school together at Saint Michael and we are good friend's with Brooks' parents, Clayton and Mandy Main. Santa Claus came and all the kids got to sit in his lap and tell him what they wanted for Christmas. You went right up to Santa and gave him a hug. AND THEN.... Mr. Logical... Santa asks, "Can you tell me what you want for Christmas?" My Hudson replies, "I already told you." Daddy looked at me, he was laughing so hard. Some of the other parents overheard you and were laughing as well. It was just too much! You are very logical and more often than not, you have a logical reply or answer - at 3.5 years of age!

I love you my baby! You are just sharp sharp sharp. Not a whole lot gets by you. You sat in Santa's lap already this year and told him what you wanted - which was a drum set by the way. We also wrote Santa a list. You knew you had already told him.

I love you my brilliant and logical little man, Mamma
