Hunter-isms

This little guy has been saying some really funny things lately. I know I need to document these types of things because they will someday be forgotten. My mom has dubbed these "Hunter-isms", and here are some of the funniest ones from the past couple of weeks.

Scenario #1:

AJ was working out to a video in our bedroom. Hunter loves to "work out" with him, copying his moves, which is cute enough in of itself. AJ asked Hunter if he could do one move and Hunter said "no". "Why not?" AJ said, to which Hunter replied, "I'm just a little boy!". :)

Scenario #2:

In preparation for Baby #2, Hunter now has a big boy room upstairs. (His nursery was downstairs) Since he's also in a big boy bed and that he knows he can get out of, I have to gate him upstairs so he doesn't try to come down the stairs in the dark at 3am. One morning before work last week, AJ got up and started the coffee maker, went into the office and heard a little voice coming from upstairs saying "Dad, you making coffee down there?". HA!!

Scenario #3:

We were watching a show on PBS called "Wild Animal Babies" before naptime. This particular episode featured lions and talked about how lions lick themselves to clean themselves. Hunter walks over to me with his tongue sticking out and said "My want to clean you" and proceeds to lick my arm. Nice!!

Thanksgiving and Whitney's shower

We made our last trip to Indiana until after Baby #2 arrives last week for Thanksgiving and my sister Whitney's baby shower. Whitney is due 6 days after me so we are really excited to have our little ones growing up so close in age with each other.

Travel was easy, thank goodness, and we enjoyed seeing family and friends while we were there, as always. We had two Thanksgiving dinners - one at my Mom and Brad's, and then down to Rushville for the Winship side of the family dinner in the evening. Hunter had a ball playing with my cousins' kids. It has been several years since we were in Indy for Thanksgiving so it was nice to be home again.

It was a decent day outside from a temperature standpoint, so Hunter got to play a little football outside with Papa and Uncle Brian. He loved it!


Friday, Hunter got to play with his friend Hudson who is a couple of months younger than him. These two haven't seen each other in about a year and they were so cute together. I was horrible at taking pictures and didn't even get any of the two of them together, unfortunately. I hate when I do that!

Sunday, we celebrated the upcoming arrival of my nephew(!) with a baby shower for my sister! I am really excited about being an aunt and to see all of the future fun these cousins have in store. It was a nice time and we enjoyed her special day with family and friends. Hunter had a burger date with the guys and somehow managed to make $20 off of the outing.


Here Hunter is hanging out with Aunt Mitty one night:

And on a frozen yogurt run on our last night in town:
