He loves this spot! Whenever he's hiding, 9 out of 10 times we find him here. He crawls behind this chair to play with his "rucksh" and "bukgunsh" and "tanshfamash". Whenever there is a marker lid and a missing marker, I find it here. Whenever scissors go MIA, I find them here. It's a given that each time I vacuum behind this chair I will find remnants of candy wrappers....as well as a collage of other oddities.
I was blissfully sleeping this morning when Silas comes walking in at 7:45. "Mawnin Mom!" he says with a big blue-eyed grin. "Morning sweetheart, climbed out of your crib again I see." "Yep" with a head nod. "Git me chocet mook mom, peas?" Grrooaannnnn...."O.K." I climb out bed, drag myself downstairs, make 2 sippy cups of chocolate milk, drag myself...and Silas in tow, back upstairs to my bed and plop down. A few wiggles, kicks, rolls, jumps, and an empty sippy cup later, Silas climbs off the bed and heads toward the playroom. Within 5 minutes I could hear ruffling and the soft click of plastic. I whisper to Jason, "Oh that little turkey, I bet he's already found his basket." I roll out bed, grab the camera and call out to Silas "What are you doing Siley?" He responds "Nuffin Mom". I step into the family room, and sure enough....
He's found the mother load! Not sure if he feels happy, nervous, or guilty. Whenever there is candy in the vicinity, he has the nose of a bloodhound."What did you find there Silas?", "Me haff cangies mom".
"Did the Easter bunny leave you a basket of goodies?", "Yaahuh, dat nice bunny mom".
"Dis one mines teeoo mom?"
