Out of the mouth of Bryce....

Bryce has been saying some very cute and funny things lately and I wanted to write them down so I would not forget them.

Preface to the 1st saying....
When Bryce was a baby, he had a fisher price music box that was on the end of his crib. He could turn it on and off and it would light up and play music. He loved that thing and even when we moved him out of the crib, he would keep it beside him in his big boy bed. He called it his "fishies". When Carter was born, I was going to let him use Bryce's fishies but Bryce wasn't going to allow that to happen, so we bought Carter his own (which we sold in a gargage sale a few weeks ago).
Anyway, the other day, he wanted to go swimming so I told him to get his swim shorts on while I finished cleaning the kitchen. He came back in his swim shorts and was holding his "fishies". He looked at me as serious as he could and said, "Mommy, Carter can have my fishies. I am done with them. I am not a baby anymore and I don't need them". I wanted to cry. I asked Bryce who told him that he wasn't a baby anymore because he would always be my baby.
I guess that I have to realize that My baby is growing up faster than I would like.

2nd funny saying....
I always love on my kids and tell them to stay little forever. Bryce recently informed me that he was a little big and a little little.

3rd saying....
On Saturday, I decided to take Carter to the doctor because he wasn't feeling well. On the way there Bryce said, "Mommy, my heart is beeping and I need to see Dr. Straughn too".

I love this little boy and while I wish he could stay little forever, I know that he will grow up. I am trying to cherish every day because I know that time is flying by.
