Having a little fun

We have been having some fun this weekend. Yesterday, Blake got in to town and his Mom and Dad left. We decide to go out to eat at the Downtown Aquarium. The food was good, but the main reason for going was to ride the Ferris wheel. Bridger absolutely loved it. He was so excited we had to endure the heat of the day, wait in a long line and postpone dinner and it was worth it. I got lots of cute pics of his ride. He put his hands in the air and said "wohoo". When we got off you would have thought we just road the biggest roller coaster in the world. Bridger was hoopen' and hollering "woohoo ... Yah, that was great, woohoo..." It was so cute the entire line that was waiting to go on the ride next were smiling and giggling.

Today we watched a conference talk in our hotel room, played "little people" with his toys and had a water fight with the syringes we used to flush Bridger's central line. I guess adaptation We ran all around the hotel hiding and squirting each other. It has been a nice relaxing two days. Bridger's temperature hasn't gone above 99.4 so that is a relief.

We love the ferris wheel, too. The zoo is good on week days, not weekends and the space center is great as well. There is a lot of little things to do as well...the museums down by the medical center are wonderful. Glad you had a good weekend!

I don't know what's more fun to me...to have the whoo-hoo feeling myself or to watch my kids when they have it! Sounds like a great day!

From the mouth of Bridger

While taking down an air mattress Bridger was playing like it was his sinking ship and that I was his rescuer. Once we were safely onto our individual rescue rafts (aka pillows) I said, while making a paddling motion “Hurry and paddle, paddle fast”. Bridger slowly turned his head toward mine and said in a dua mom tone of voice “I have a motor” then decided to add “and if that doesn’t work I have a two headed paddle so I can still go fast”.
-------------------------------------
I was in the kitchen and Bridger was sitting over the arm of the couch when he dropped something he was playing with. He began to ask me to come pick it up for him. “Pleas mom will you come pick this up for me”. I was half ignoring him thinking he can get down and get it. He was persistent “Mom pleas will you help me mom pleas…Jesus is going to put you on his naughty list if you don’t help me” I just thought at least he knows whose list is important.
--------------------------------
Trying to convince me to let him play video games he said “mom I really insist”
--------------------------------
Bridger’s Grandma got her hair cut short a little shorter than she wanted. Bridger kept looking at it and so Grandma asked “Did you see grandma cut her hair” Bridger “Does Grandpa like?” Grandma “yes” Bridger “Do you like it?” Grandma “Not really” Bridger “I think you look adorable!”
------------------------------
After Going to the bathroom Bridger was holding the toilet paper and said “When I just see this toilet paper I think of God…a pause… It reminds me of Heavenly Father and Jesus”. I said “Well it is the White Cloud brand. Trying not to lol I asked what about the toilet paper makes you think of them? Bridger “I just do”. Mom “Is it the color, or maybe the pattern”? Bridger “The color”.
-------------------------------
While sitting down to a small dinner including chips homemade avocado dip that Bridger helped make, a casserole and some fresh veggies. Bridger shouts out as soon as the prayer ended “WHAT A FEAST!”
---------------------------------
While watching the first part of Wizard of Oz, specifically the part when Dorothy first walks out of her house into Oz, Bridger turned and asked “Is heaven beautiful”? I said “yes it is” He said “More beautiful than this?” referring to oz with its 1939 plastic flowers and back drops. I said “yes much more” still in aw, he said “this is beautiful enough”.
------------------------------
Swatting at fruit flies with no success he stopped and proclaimed “They think I’m I a fruit!”
---------------------------
Bridger bent his big toe nail back trying to move a basket. He was in a lot of pain. I said “come here and let me see” he said “It’s as red as a burnt pancake”.
---------------------------
Waiting for the Dr. Bridger let me play his DS Game. I actually completed a short level. Bridger in an optimistic voice said “Good job Mom…I’m impressed”!
------------------------------
I asked Bridger if he thought it would be fun if his Dad brought his bike down this weekend so they could ride bikes together. Bridger hesitated and said “What if he can’t keep up with me”
----------------------------
One night I told Bridger a bed time story about how Blake and I met. I mentioned that we flirted long before we started dating even though dad would never admit to it. Then later in the story I mentioned we flirted while we dated. I went on to tell him about us getting married and a year and 3 months later we had a wonderful baby boy. At the end of the story he said “You and Dad sure flirted a lot”.
-----------------------------
Bridger wanted to play with his Nerf gun so I suggested some targets for him to shoot at. His reply was. “You could just be my target”
---------------------------
As a nurse was leaving his room he turned and said, “Ta Ta”. Then he said, “Mom that’s Spanish for good bye.”
