What Landon Says

While at Kmart the other day Landon noticed the lady at the checkout had numerous rings on her fingers.  A couple days later he asked me, “mom, why did that lady at Kmart have so many rings on her fingers?”  “Is it because she has been married many times?”

Landon – “Mom, look at those dark cows.”  “Sienna, chocolate milk comes from dark cows”

Mom – “Landon, why do call your blanket a key?”

Landon – “Because a key is something you lay your head on and a blanket you cover up with.”

Baseball

This summer Landon has participating in Tot Ball through the Fargo Park District.  He absolutely loves playing and looks forward to ever game day on Monday’s and Wednesday’s. 

Wedding

Just this past weekend Auntie Mo got married.  All of us had the honor of being in the wedding, Travis was a groomsman, I was a bridesmaid, Landon was a ring bearer and Sienna was the flower girl.  It was a great day, but I must admit it was a lot of work for me.  We are very happy that we can welcome Brandon into the family and call him Uncle Brandon.

The Ride To Daycare

Landon – “Mom, where is that noise coming from.”

Me –“What noise are you talking about?”

Landon- “That music.”

Me- “From the speakers.”

Landon-“Where are the speakers.”

Me-“In the doors of the car.”

Landon – “I can’t see them.”

This was the car ride to daycare today.  We also talked about how birds drink rain water and how he wanted to drink rain water.  Try to explain to a 5 year old the process of where our water comes from, gets cleaned and ends up at our houses.

The 1 Mile Marathon Runner

Landon participated in his second Fargo Marathon Youth Run last night and did great!  He wanted to run it by himself, secretly I was proud he wanted to do it by himself and a little sad as he seems to be getting so big, either way I was happy at his eagerness to want to run.  I sat with him before the kids lined up patiently waiting for the race to begin.  Once they lined up I told him to run and follow the other kids.  The first kid came back in about 6 minutes 40 seconds, wow!  He enjoyed the race and was already talking about doing it again next year.

All Landon

“Mom, when will I lose my teeth?”

“Soon Landon, soon.”

“Then will the fairy tooth come visit me.”

“You mean the Tooth Fairy?”

“Yes.”

“Yes, she will and then she will put money under your pillow.”

“What if she lifts my head too far up?”

“Mom, you need to cut Sienna’s hair it is getting too long.”

“No, I’m trying to grow it out.”

(A little gasp) “Mom, then she will look like Rapunzel.”

Waking up out of a dead sleep...“Mom and dad, when I was sleeping this morning I had to blow my nose and papa gave me toilet paper.”

“Ok.”

“Yeah, and the toilet paper was really soft.”
