Sonic

March 29, 2011


Connor saw a sign at Sonic for a Chicago hotdog. This was his concern:

"Mom, that hamburger bun has dirt on the bottom of it. And then it has a hotdog in it. And then it has fruit on top! Who would eat that?"

Asha and Connor Eating Dinner

March 29, 2011

Connor, Asha, and Ethan were visiting Mamaw Lucile and Mimi. We sat down for dinner. Connor and Asha decided to sit in the same seat to eat. While we were eating, Asha and Connor had an interesting exchange.


Asha: What year was I born in?
Connor: It was 2003, because I was born in 2003 and we were born in the same year.
Asha: It worked! I just sent him a mind message! He said exactly what I was thinking.

Little Gentleman

March 23, 2011

Connor (to Ethan): You are such a good little gentleman, aren't you?!?
[Ethan scratches Connor on his face and pulls his hair.]
Connor (laughing): Well, he's not so gentle, is he?

Goofy

March 9, 2011

Connor is watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse with Ethan while he's eating breakfast.


Connor: Mom, Goofy turned into a baby! He tried to turn into a knight, but the machine turned him into a baby instead.
Lori: He wanted to be a medieval knight?
Connor: No, not an evil one. A good one.

The Mural

March 4, 2011

I took Connor to the doctor.  The office waiting room is covered with animal murals.

"Mom, look! There are raccoons.  And look FrootLoops! I mean toucans!"

Favorite Restaurants

March 5, 2011

We were talking about favorite restaurants on our way home from dinner.

Jason: Where is your favorite hamburger restaurant?
Connor: McDonalds.
Jason: Even if they didn't have a playland or toys, would it still be your favorite?
Connor: Yep. I just love the way they make 'em.
Lori (to Jason): Where is your favorite pizza restaurant?
Jason: Well, right now, I really like Dominos.
Connor: I just made you say Dominos!
Jason: How did you do that?
Connor: I was just whispering "Do-Mi-Nos" and you just said it!
Lori (laughing with Jason): Wow! You must have mind-control.
Connor: Nuh-uh! If I had mind-control, we'd be on our way to McDonalds right now!
<Hysterical laughter from Lori and Jason>
Jason: Fair enough.

Ethan Alien

March 1, 2011

We are shopping at Renaissance when Connor yells at a store sign: "Mom! That store is called Ethan Alien! Look!"  

I turn to find him pointing at Ethan Allen.
