Brody was crying the other day and I heard Chandler in the kitchen saying, "its ok Brody, I am coming. Its ok Brody." He ran from the kitchen to Brodys chair and said, " Its ok I'm here, I am right here brody." Yes, Brody quit crying!

I was having a rough day and was crying, as mothers are allowed to do sometimes! Chandler came over and said, "Its okay mom. Whats wrong? Do you need a bandaid?"

Chandler has been spitting a lot lately and he gets his mouth flicked when he spits. Brody was drooling the other day and Chandler says, " Mom, Brody spit, he needs a flick."

When I've had more than I can handle I will say Im just sick of this. Yesterday I must have been nagging Chandler a bit to much because when I asked him to go get his pajamas for the millionth time he said, "I am just sick of you mom." Better watch what I say.

Chandler found some Sprees candy in my purse, no surprise there is ALWAYS candy in my purse! He says, "Do you want one mom? If you go pee you get one, if you go stincky you can have two!" I guess bribary goes both ways.

We were having dinner and I asked Chandler to say the prayer, he said No. I told him that we need to pray to make Jesus happy. He went and got Jesus from the nativity and set him in the middle of the table! Then he said his prayer!

At Thanksgiving everyone went around the table and said what they were thankful for. When it came to Chandler he said he was thankful for his cousins!! He is lucky to have so many cousins so close in age!

Chandlers cousin Lexi went to church with us today. When they went to nursery the leaders asked Chandler if she was his cousin. He said "Yes." Then they asked him where she was from and he said " Shes from the condo." (They have been staying at a timeshare condo!)

Chandler was four wheeling on the river with his grandpa Smith. The river got to deep and the four wheeler died. They were floating down the river and as the river started to rise Chandler panicked and said " WERE GOING TO DIE."

I worked today so I obviously didn't cook dinner but I made Chandler some Raman Noodles. He looked at me and said, " Whats for dinner?" I told him we were having soup and he replied, " No, whats for real dinner." I said whats a real dinner and he said " The kind when you make it."

I was telling Chandler a Knock Knock joke..I said Knock Knock and he said, "Can you play?"

I was at the doctor and Chandler climbed up on the table next to me and said, " I am here to take care of you mom and make sure you feel better."

We were at Kohls and Chandler kept climbing out of the stroller. I looked at him and simply said, "Chandler.." he responds by saying, "Its ok I'll flick myself!" I swear he could care less if he gets in trouble, its all a joke to him!

Chandler was watching Dora and I went to turn it off because it was over.. HE says, "No mom. Dora told me to Stay Tuned and keep watching!" OH BOY!

Chan told me today that Archie is so lucky because he got to ride an airplane from Heaven into Aunt Jennys belly!! I guess there is no better explanation?

Lately, because it's getting colder, I have been putting a white long sleeved shirt under Chandler short sleeved shirts. When I put it on today he said, " So these are like my garments?"

Todd was getting mad at Brody cuz he wouldn't go to bed. Chandler tells me, " I need to go get mad at dad. He is making bad choices when he yells at Brody."

I told Chan that if he drinks to much Sprite he will get a big belly like me. He said, " If I drink to much Sprite I will have a baby?"

Chandler stole some candy out of my drawer. I found him in his room and he looked at me and said, " Please, don't tell Santa."

Chandler was on the eliptical machine and Todd asked him what he was doing. He said, " I am just beefing up."
