Proud Mommy Moments: Who's The Mom

It's Thursday- that means it is time for Proud Mommy Moments. This is your chance to brag about your kids and tell us those awesome things they have done or tell us the times that make you oh so "proud"- but hey at least it gives us all a good laugh.

Please grab the button for your post. Also make sure you link your actual post not just your blog in general. Just in case you don't know how to do this- when you are viewing your blog click the title of your post- the url you know the http stuff will then change to the specific address of that post- copy that and link that up. Clear as mud huh?

And definitely visit my co-host Kmama as it is she and I that do this meme every week.

This week I have a duel PMM- duel meaning two different kids and one is a proud moment and the other is "proud", you be the judge of which you think it is.

Moment #1: Ryder is continuing to grow and learn new things every day. He definitely seems to understand just about everything but he still isn't saying much. I know he is fine, but at times I can't help but worry, espeically since he was born 8 weeks early. So this last weekend as I was making breakfast he was ready to eat and was not wanting to wait anymore. I grabbed a cereal box which may have been something super healthy like Cookie Crisp and gave him a piece of cereal. He happily ate it and then came over pointing to the box and grunting.

"Do you want more?" I asked.
He then signed the word more for the first time ever. I have been teaching him this for a while but he has never done it before.
Needless to say I gave him more, and well he ended up having a lot as he was really taking advantage of how proud I was.

taking with my phone on instagram-
are you on instagram? I think it might be my new thing- well that and pintrest.

Moment #2: After I dropped Alex off at preschool on Tuesday I decided to take advantage of having only one helper and went shopping. Ryder and I went to Michael's and got some supplies for the super awesome craft that Alex and I made yesterday (which I will tell you all about next week). Then we went to Ross as I needed some weights for the workout class I am attending three days a week now. And well, as it always goes, I ended up with more than just weights from Ross. One of the extra things I picked up were some new hand towels for the downstairs bathroom.

When the kids got home from school Lucas commented about the new towels.
"When did you get new towels?" Alex distraughtly questioned.
"Today at the store when I was shopping." I responded
"You went shopping today!? Why didn't you tell me." Alex huffed.
I paused.... how do I answer this.
"Um, well you know now, after I dropped you off I went shopping."
"Okay, well next time make sure you tell me."
Wait a minute, last time I checked I was the mother right?

What are your PMM this week? And remember dad's, aunts, uncles, grandma's, grandpas, etc can participate too!
