Here Mommy!

Today my oldest, Robby decides that it would be fun to play on daddy's PlayStation 3. This is nothing new or exciting. It's actually a daily routine, he can play almost any Lego game better than I and he loves Little Big Planet. What happen today though just got us both off guard. He was playing around while the wife and I tried to sleep in. He started browsing through the PlayStation's store, a great perk for finding movies or some of the old PlayStation and PlayStation 2 games. Unfortunately they never have the real good stuff that I would actually want to download.

So today he is browsing around and decides to download a game. Unfortunately Amanda had used her card recently to buy me the add on for Call of Duty. So when he downloaded the game it automatically deducted from her account. It was only $21 but needless to say she was pretty mad. Oddly enough it wasn't at him!! She was mad at me! Go figure, hehehe. Well she made me password protect the ordering on PlayStation network so he couldn't do it again. Then I sat down and explained what Robby had done. We have recently started to learn about the concept of money by the way. So He comes out of his room and goes over to Amanda and the first thing out of his mouth surprised us both. "Mommy, I am sorry. I have money in my piggy bank."

I Just burst into laughter I could not help it, Amanda's face just dropped I thought she might cry. When a 4 year old child can walk up with such sincerity and offer all his savings to his parents for his mistake it literally just hits you right in the chest. I love my little boy no matter how much of Mommy's money he spends! Besides I got a new race car game out of it!

This Little Piggy

A new restaurant opened in town this week. It's Chinese and since I have been in Texas I have yet to find a Chinese restaurant I can stand. So we have been there three times this week lol. So I got lucky with my first born he is crazy about the strangest things, for example broccoli! Well Ryder we found out is following in his foot steps, he is nuts for spinach! I hate spinach, I can barely stand broccoli, yet somehow both my boys eat healthier than I do? On top of that this little ten month old not only loved spinach he could not get enough, he ate an entire plate full of spinach and cheese! It doesn't seem to end with spinach either, he is just crazy for food. No matter what you do, you can not feed him fast enough. If you go to slow he yells at you, I am a little concerned about the grocery bill when he hits his teens, but for now we are just glad he eats so well.
