Crazy Landon

Lately Landon has figured out that when he goes to bed Mom and Dad stay up. This means he's figured out how to stall. He'll get ready for bed just fine and then after we say prayers he tries to come up with whatever he can to not go to bed. This particular evening he went over to his hats and was begging to put his hat on. Then, came the tie, yes, he had to have it on. Then, he wanted to sit down and play a tic tac toe game his cousins gave him for Christmas. We haven't even played it yet but he saw it and wanted to play. How am I supposed to say no? So we played a couple rounds and he caught on pretty fast. Then he ws ready for bed.


Another habit he is starting to form is helping himself to a treat while we clean up dinner. He loves these 100 calorie pack of cookies which he can get out of the cabinet. The other night I let him have some cookies and he took the package over to his horse, dumped the package out on the horse, ran over to the trash can to throw the package away, came back to sit on the side and use his horse like a table! Isn't he clever?

He is SO clever! The rocking horse is really cute! It's adorable that he uses the back of the horse for a "table." What a smart little guy!!

That is funny! And might I say what a cute tic tac toe game.

Hey Crystal! Landon is so cute, and I think he knows it! He knows you can't resist his charm!

I love the picture of him behind the rocking horse. What a clever little boy! He is so funny stalling to go to bed. Ethan and Jonathan seem to be masters at that as well.

What a wonderful smile Landon wears for the horse picture! I'm definitely copying that one and putting it up.
Landon has a very clever plan to stay up, interesting choice of clothes! I'll burn a cd of the pictures on the slide show for you, Crystal.
