hello cupcake.

For you Paige.
Here are my cooleo cupcakes that you missed out on.
I finally got the book Hello Cupcake from the library. All of the cupcakes looked like quite a bit of work, but some were pretty cute. It had some interesting stuff in it too. Like these cupcakes that I made for Sunday dinner at my parents house a month or so ago.

Spaghetti and meatballs
TV dinner - complete with a chicken drumstick, peas and carrots, mashed potatoes and a cupcake for desert.
Corn on the cob. The perfect side for the tv dinner.

romanisms

Of course everyone thinks their kid is hilarious, and I am no exception. But do other people find the same things funny? Here are some of the funny things Roman has said recently. You be the judge.

Brad - (after Rome was running around all crazy like) - you are all sweaty!
Roman - I'm not sweaty dad, I'm handsome.

Don't say no dad, say yes!

me - (while he is banging on his drum with all he's got) - why are you being so loud?
Roman - it's my job.

While laying on the floor coloring - Hey dad, what's breast milk? I'm drawing breast milk.

For about a month when we asked him to do something he would say "no problemo", pronounced prob-lee-mo
Or he would say "I betcha" (instead of you betcha)

That same month he said "um" before absolutely everything. Um mom... Um dad... Um I need milk... Um where is my monkey... You get the picture. Funny thing is that when he did this we noticed I say it all the time too!

While watching Diego
Diego - can you help us?
Roman - No, I'm drinking my milk.

Daddy you go to bed, I stay up.

While shopping one day
Roman - mommy that lady's bum is big.
Me - Roman shhh!
Roman - in his super loud whisper - but mom it is big.
At least he listened when I said shhh.

After Halloween - can I please have a treat, the candy people gave me.

Me - Roman get back here so I can put your sock on.
Roman - Sorry mama, I need to do some hard work, I don't want to be late for hard work.

Roman was at my parent's house when my mom was decorating for Christmas.
Roman - grandmas having a party
me - what?
Roman - grandma is having a party with Christmas.

Brad - Roman are you being goofy?
Roman - No dad, I'm Roman Henry Davis.

He found my stethoscope the other day so I let him play with it. He walked over to Finn and said, let's have a listen shall we.

Here is my funny little guy. We found an old film camera. He loves it. Walks around the house asking everyone to say cheese.

we have a winner

Thanks for all the donations to Mia and her family!

According to random.org we have a winner in the baby Mia quilt giveaway...

The winner of the quilt is the Eggett family. (Her blog is private, so I can't link you there). But I am happy to say that she - unlike me - actually knows baby Mia. So hopefully she can think of Mia whenever she looks at her new quilt!

The winner of the Baby Bjorn cover is Hannah.

The winner of the crayon roll is Nicole.

175 comments on the post. Hopefully we were able to do some good for little Mia - who is finally at home with her family! Hoping they have a great Christmas together!
