More Ryan-isms

I promise that I will get Christmas stuff up on the blog, but Ryan has come out with some great sayings the past few days.

On Christmas Eve, Jamie told Ryan, "Ryan you are a handsome man."
Ryan: I'm not a handsome man!
Jamie: Oh, you are a handsome boy.
Ryan: I'm not a handsome boy.
Jamie: What are you then?
Ryan: I'm just handsome.

Yesterday, Ryan said, "Nicholas is a handfuller." (I think a combo of handful and hairpuller)
Ryan also was helping yesterday and said, "Nicholas Michael, eat your dinner for mommy!"

We were at a friend's house for a play date and the other child was practicing some letters on the chalkboard. His mom said that he is learning to write his name. Ever the modest one, Ryan says, "I know how to write my name. I'm not working on it--I already know how." (A little embarrassing!)

Ryan calls the man in Curious George, "The man with the yellow pants," instead of "the man in the yellow hat." Now, he does have yellow pants too...so I don't argue.

And because this blog is mostly for me to keep record of things, not to brag, but Ryan spent most of dinner yesterday working on sounding out the words on the salad dressing bottles. So proud of him and excited that he wants to be reading!
