Thomasisms

Thomas and Natalie had their first sleepover on Thursday night. Thomas wanted her to come to our house first and said he'd sleep at hers next time. It went very well and they had a lot of fun. That night before bed (which happened way later than normal but isn't that how sleepovers go?) they wanted to say their prayers and Thomas decided to pray. He said, "Dear God, thank you for this day and thank you for letting Natalie come over for our first sleepover...."

On Saturday while waiting for the wedding to start, Thomas wanted to go one direction David wanted to go another. He told Thomas to go ahead knowing they'd meet up on the other side. Thomas looked at David and said, "But Daddy, you can't let a child go off all by himself!"


He's been to a wedding before but he's older now and much more interested in the whole process. He had lots of questions and I was whispering in his ear everything that was happening and going to happen. He saw the groom come down with the minister and then the bridesmaids and groomsmen all started coming in. Thomas said, "Wow, are ALL those people getting married?" He said it a little loudly and people all around us were chuckling. David didn't get to see the wedding. He was back in the back chasing Jonathan around, but Thomas and I enjoyed it.


This week, Thomas has really gotten into playing his Lego Star Wars game. We play it a little every day during Jonathan's nap. Up to this point, he would play it but never really showed any interest in advancing the storyline. But now, we're working our way through it and having a lot of fun. Last night, we ate with Mom, Dad, and Grandma and Thomas looked at them and said, "You are offered to come over to my house to watch me and my mommy play Wii Star Wars after dinner." I'm pretty sure he meant "invited" but they understood and came over for a little while. Dad played with him and Mom, Grandma, and I enjoyed watching Thomas get so excited about it. When they're having light saber battles or gun fights, Thomas dances/runs in place and waves his Wii Remote wildly. Pretty cute. And then Jonathan got his own Wii remote out of the drawer and "played" with them.
