Seen and Heard at the Hamberlin's

There are funny moments going on around our house everyday...I know I am going to regret it if I don't start writing them down! SEEN:
*Yesterday I told Pax to give Tegan "just a few" pieces of cereal on his tray...apparently Paxton interpreted that as "dump the whole container of cereal treats" on Tegan's tray!
*Paxton insists on getting lots of kisses before bedtime...not just regular kisses...monster kisses. This consists of me running like a monster across his room and smothering him with kisses ...can I count that as exercise because i usually have to stop after about the 10th time across the room because I am totally out of breath, pathetic huh!
*Tegan is up and going more and more these days...he can now get up on his hands and knees and is usually pretty content as long as he has a large pile of toys in front of him! Of course issues arise quite frequently when Paxton discovers that Tegan is playing with one of his toys, reading one of his books, or playing with his dad...I guess we need to work on sharing!
*Paxton is obsessed with wearing pajamas...pretty much everyday for the past 2 weeks he has refused to get dressed in the morning...sometimes we can convince him to put on normal pants but then whats the point when he refuses to change the shirt!

*Paxton is finally showing some interest in potty training!! Yay...if only his mother could get brave enough to actually let him wear underwear all day then maybe we would get somewhere!


HEARD:
*Paxton has started talking in his sleep lately...last week he was yelling out "Brobie" in his sleep and we went in his room and he was totally asleep wrestling with his stuffed Brobie on his bed. That same night he started yelling out "Jerika" in the middle of the night...again totally asleep!
*Paxton has a pretty typical 2 year old vocabulary right now. His favorite words are MINE, NOW, and COME HERE. He has also recently learned to pound his fist down on the nearest piece of furniture for added effect to his demands. It usually goes something like this "Dad, sippy (followed by a fist pound and a dirty look) NOW!"
*My other favorite Paxton phrase right now is "hold you" any time he wants you to hold him he comes up to you with a sweet innocent look and then begs "hold you mommy, hold you." I love it!!


*And on a final note just as I was about to push publish on this blog post my always entertaining son ran up to me buck naked and demanded "pj's"...he actually got dressed today so I though we were making progress on his jammies phase...guess not!

Ok...so here's the plan, we'll work on potty training this next week, maybe if the boys see each other going to the bathroom it will keep them interested.....and us motivated!! (sorry those were my two comments up top, i'll explain later:))
