REID DOES NOT LIKE TACOS...

We were driving to Target today and as we passed all the different fast food restaurants, he was asking me what each one was.

"That's McDonalds, that's Subway, that's Wendy's..."
"What's that one, mommy?"
"That one is Taco Bell."
"No, Mommy, that's not Taco Bell, that's Chicken Nugget Bell!"

Other terribly sweet, terribly funny, or just plain terrible things he has said recently:
  • I LUFF you, Mommy
  • I want my fluffly blanket
  • Go AWAY!!
  • (In a whisper at nite nite) Sweep wiff me, Mommy
  • You're killin' me, mommy. You're killin' me. (Um, he might have heard me say such a thing...oops)
  • After me starting to say the "now I lay me" prayer one night, stopped me and insisted I say "the one wiff my cousins." You know, the one where we name off EVERY single grandparent, aunt, uncle, cousin and friend he knows.

LET'S START OUR UPDATE FROM THE BEGINNING OF SUMMER

Most of the family took off in June to Outer Banks, NC and spent the week beachside and poolside. Reid had a great time in the sun and sand and playing with his cousins! He still talks about the ocean and the beach and the crabs all the time.

Bryan even took Reid boogie-boarding and even though Mommy was nervous, Reid had a great time and didn't even get upset when he fell into the water.

We just wish the beach--ANY beach--was just a little bit closer!
Chillin' with some frozen kool-aid




He rode this wave all the way in!







I love this picture of Ben and Reid




Diggin' for treasure
