“Yesterday I chased those birds at the beach”
“Yesterday mommy and Wyatt went on the plane to see Gabs”
“Yesterday we went to Disneyland”
“Yesterday we go to Target and see that Dinosaur”
“Yesterday Wyatt was soap and wet (soakin’ wet)”
“Yesterday we went trick or treating”
“Yesterday I go fishing with daddy and grandpa”
“Yesterday I got a shot”
“Yesterday you tried and kill those flies”
“Yesterday I saw Superman in the sky”
“Yesterday I ran away from Grandma”
“Yesterday I watched a movie in the park”
Yes. We had a very busy day “yesterday”. Dax is in a toddler phase right now that I hope he never figures out. Lately, everything is “yesterday”. Things that happened months ago, weeks ago, days ago, even this morning are “yesterday”. I don’t even try to correct him or tell him that it happened forever ago, because to him, he remembers it like it was yesterday. To him, these are significant things that he brings up about “yesterday”. Like when we went to Disneyland in August, that was “yesterday”. And obviously when we went trick or treating last month, that was “yesterday” too. He went camping with his dad and grandpa in May, ran away from his grandma a few weeks ago (that was scary), Wyatt and I went on a plane to see Gabs at the beginning of the month, and Dax got his flu shot last weekend all “yesterday”. Sometimes he does use it in the right context. Like I really was trying to kill some flies yesterday and we did go to Target and see that big Dinosaur in the toy section. But, for the most part, we have very busy “yesterdays”.
I kinda hope it stays that way. I know I’ll miss it when our “yesterdays” aren’t quite the same anymore and he actually figures out that all this didn’t take place “yesterday”. Ours days will be so boring!

Tanner does that too! He is starting to grow out of it some and it makes me so sad. I have loved everything being "yesterday". Oh, that makes me sad to think that these fun stages end. I loved hearing that other kids do the samething. What a cute cute boy Dax is!!
That is so cute! I just love when they talk like that. I loved when I was teaching preschool and the younger kids would talk like that, but the older kids would try to correct them and teach them. It was hilarious! They would try and try to teach them and it was too cute!! I love when Austin tells us stories about Dax ~ So cute!!
That's such a funny post. I think most kids must do that. Dylan does it to, but not as much as she used to. It just amazes me the things they can remember and how far back. We went in for tithing settlements in the bishops office (and haven't been in his office together since last year) and Dylan remembered he had suckers in his drawer. It was so funny!
