Conversations With Evan

Last night I was downstairs making dinner and Evan was upstairs watching a movie.  I called up to check on him and he didn't answer, so I went upstairs.  I heard noise coming from my closet and went in to find him with his golf club, which he pretends is an ice pick that he uses to re-enact the opening scene of Frozen.

Me: "What are you doing, Bud?"

Evan: "I'm working, Mommy."

Me: "Don't you want to finish watching the movie?"

Evan: "No Mommy, I'm working."

On the way to school this morning Evan was telling me that his arm was itching. . .

 

Me: "Did you get a bug bite?"

Evan: "Yes."

Me: "What kind of bug bit you?"

Evan: "A Grasshopper."

Evan is all about privacy these days when he goes potty, whether it's in the bathroom or when he goes in his pull up.  One night I could tell he was going poop in his pull up.

 

Me: "Evan, are you going potty?

Evan: "Mommy, leave me alone please."

 

I looked at Shawn to see if he heard what Evan just said, but I didn't move.

 

Evan: "I said please."

Evan is great at making excuses!  When we ask him to clean up his toys he usually will do 1 of the following.  Lay down and say "I'm too tired"  or he will pick up something in each hand and then say,  "but my hands are full."
