Here’s some photos of Seven and Zane from June. I used pixelpipe.com to upload to my facebook, flickr, and my blog all at once!

Messy kiddo

Seven Says, part 4

Just now as I was making dinner for Seven, he came over and saw the vegetables I was putting on his plate:

Seven (pointing to the carrots): Carrots?
Me: Yes, carrots.
Seven (pointing to the broccoli): Sparkly?

And this movie is from earlier today. His Aunt Sandy gave him a Buzz Lightyear space gun toy and for some reason Seven calls it a “gum” – I kinda prefer that since I didn’t want him playing with guns anyway! So he can call it a gum if he wants!

Zane crawls!

I managed to catch the first time Zane crawled on camera. It’s a crappy cellphone video (taken with my Android G1) but still, it was very exciting! This happened on June 14th when Zane was 5 1/2 months old.

Some cute quotes for you today:

Dinner last night, according to Seven, was “snackaroni and cheese!” It’s so cute I think that’s what I’ll call it from now on.

Me (pointing to a picture of Nemo on his swimmy diaper): Who’s this, Seven?
Seven: It’s EMO!!!

Then after he’d been playing in the sprinkler for half an hour, and he was cold and wet, he came over to me and said “I’m emo, Mommy!” …he did look kinda emo, too!

Tony and I saw “Star Trek” last weekend and Tony’s been trying to teach Seven to say things from the movie. Here’s a couple that made me laugh:

Tony: Say “James Tiberius Kirk”
Seven: James Tiger Kirk!

Tony: Seven, can you say “Live long and prosper”?
Seven: Live long lobster!
Tony: Live long and prosper.
Seven: Live long…cracker?

Seven Says…

One of the main reasons I wanted to start this blog was so I could document the silly things my 2-and-a-half year old son, Seven, sometimes says. So here is “Seven Says”, which I hope will become a regular feature. Here are a couple just off the top of my head:

My mom asked to be called Nana by her grandkids, so that’s how I’ve referred to her since Seven was born. When he started talking, he called her Nana for a little while, then out of the blue decided her name was La-da. We have no idea where it came from, but he’s very consistent and now it makes me smile every time he says, “hi, La-da!” or “I lah loo, La-da!” (Oh yeah, “I lah loo” is how he says I love you!)

A couple weeks ago I gave Seven a little bit of ice cream as a treat, and now he’s started asking me for “eye creams” – at first I had no idea what he meant but then I figured it out:

Me: Do you mean ice cream?
Seven: Eye creams!
Me: It’s pronounced ice cream.
Seven: Eye creams?
Me: No, ICE CREAM!
Seven: Eye creams, PLEASE!

Eye creams, Mommy!

Eye creams, Mommy!
