Landy-poo!!

Oh my landen! what a funny kid! he is seriously growing so fast that i can hardly believe it! it is so funny when kids start doing things that you didn't even realize they were capable of. Landen has started becoming more adventurous and i have had to bite my tongue a few times and just watch as he sets out on his new career of "dare devil". He also is using his three year old cognitive skills: at milissa's baby shower landen was running in and out of the house a lot but he was there long enough to see "nissa" open her gifts and then came back in for some cake! so after he was done with his cake (actually i am embellishing and telling the story from my point of view, when i was not even there when this happened but it came of a good source, and it is my story so i can do whatever i want. the quotes are true, however!) so anyways landen went up to "nissa" in the middle of her having a conversation with some of the guests and said "nissa", then realizing that she was talking to others he politely (ha) interrupted but taking her hand and rubbing it and repeating her name. So milissa looked down and said "yes landy-poo", then landen looked up as sweet as possible and said "happy birthday nissa". Milissa thanked him and he was on his way. Such a simple story i know, but for a three year old that was a lot of thinking, milissa had presents and cake, the only time his gets presents and cake is on his birthday, and seeing as how he has never had a baby shower, and never will, he figured it must be her birthday. when milissa told me i died laughing, that one is definitely going in the journal!! although i still think that my all time favorite landen story is when he was two and we had been working really hard at getting him to sit still at church and it was time for sacrament and so it is all quiet in the chapel and wayne passed the sacrament to our row and landen yells out to him, "Sit down Wayne!!!" classic!
