Big Boy Beds and Boogers. Oh My Boys!

Reid started in is "big boy bed" last night. I wasn't there for it because I was having a girlie night out with friends from the previous ward after the conference session. But tonight he whined and whined about wanting to sleep but I kept telling him he had to brush his teeth first. He wasn't happy about that but did it and was eager to get into his bed.
Matt and I have also noticed how much he blossoms with words and sentences. Way more advanced we think than Zeke was. But now Reid has Zeke's example. In the previous post I have a video of them both saying the word "helicopter", and it is very different. SO CUTE! Zeke says, "copadoctor", and Reid says, "topter". Gotta love it.

So, many of you know the way Zeke sucks on his fingers. He sucks his middle and ring fingers curled upward in his mouth. This enables him-he discovered, to be able to put his pinky finger up his nose. Well Matt has been telling him that when he turns four, he will be a big kid and has to stop sucking his fingers. On the way to church today Matt caught him and reminded him to stop. Zeke exclaimed he had to put his fingers in his nose because he had to get the worms out! We're like, you have worms in your nose? Adamantly he said yes. After some probing and attempts at convincing him it wasn't true, he firmly believes it still. Matt told him they are boogers, not worms and he said that the boogers turn into worms. I do not know where this all came from, but it was entertaining!
