Spoiled!

I meant to write about this last week, but I was too busy getting ready for Parent-Teacher Conferences. Anyway, Rocky's parents came to visit the 8th-12th. They had some business they were doing here in Utah, so we were lucky enough to get to spend some time with them.
I absolutely love it when Rocky's parents come. For several reasons. One being that Ryder loves them, and they are constantly entertaining him. They spoil him so much with attention. He just gets to show off for them, and we all watch him. They also spoil him with a ton of toys! They bought him this little interactive playhouse and lots of other little treats and things.
Another reason why I love when they come is because they spoil Rocky and me! On Monday they volunteered to watch Ryder while Rocky and I went to dinner and a movie. Then, on Wednesday they took us to dinner and afterwards to Walmart.
Now, when I say spoiled, I mean SPOILED!!! They just let us fill up 2 carts full of food, toys, essentials, etc. then they paid for it all! Ridiculous! But, it's true. They are super sweet, and I feel so lucky that I don't have any nightmare mother-in-law stories! :)

Hilarious!

This was one of the funniest things a kid has ever said to me. First, you have to know this kid. He is somewhat clueless--a daydreamer. He is smart, but sometimes you have to beat him on the head with common sense. That said, here is today's conversation after school:
Shanden: "Hey Mrs. Davies, are you pregnant?"
Me: (chuckle) "Um, what do you think?"
Shanden: "Well, I think yes, but at first I just thought you'd been eating a lot."
Me: "Oh, well, yes, I am pregnant."
Shanden: "Alright, well see ya."
Me: "Bye."

I guess maybe you had to be there to hear his tone and see the expressions on his face, but it was priceless! He was very matter-of-fact and not at all embarrassed to say just what he thought.
