More Sydney

At the risk of being one of those moms that annoyingly brags about her kids, I'm going to share a story about Sydney. Once in awhile I'm caught off guard, and really impressed, by her understanding of something...

While sitting at the dinner table tonight, some static came over the baby monitor on the shelf next to us.

Sydney: What was that?
Me: Just some static on the baby monitor.
Sydney: Maybe something is in Ryker's bed.
Me: No, nothing is in Ryker's bed, it was just some air. (I know this isn't entirely accurate, but it was the only way I could think of at the time to describe static to a two and a half year old.)
Sydney: Maybe it's gas in Ryker's bed.
Me: Gas? Is gas air?
Sydney: Yep.

At first I was slightly impressed that she understood the sounds from the baby monitor come from Ryker's bed, but then she started talking about gas. I have no idea how she knows that gas is air. Smarty pants.

**I know posts without pictures get kind of boring, so I asked Sydney if I could take her picture to add to this. She has a little canker sore in her mouth and told me, "Sydney's mouth hurts. Sydney can't smile, Mama." Sorry folks. (She always talks in the third person, hopefully it's just a phase!)**
