Our silly kids pulled out the works dressing up Dave. He was bathing Owen and came out of the bathroom looking like this. He is so patient and such a wonderful Dad.
Well, it's official! My kids are growing up! All day school! They are all in different classes this year and I think it is really good for them. They are making new friends and having fun in separate classes, but they still play together at recesses. It's great. I cried a lot the first day and kept watching the clock, but now, I absolutely love the time to get some stuff done! Here are my cuties on their first day of school!
Talk about making a Momma cry! My sweet little boy looked like a girl and he needed a haircut so bad! So, I broke down and did it. And he hated every second of it! He wanted to keep his hair too! But he sure looked cute with short hair. Kind of like a little Connor!
ASPEN: In the car ride home from vacation, I turned around and scared Aspen with a "Roar". She screamed, laughed, then said, "Momma, roar me again!" *****We called Grandma around 9:00pm to tell her Happy Birthday. Aspen said it really quietly. We told her to say it louder, but instead she said, "I just really want to go to bed." *****We were shopping for clothes for Uncle Cam's wedding and Aspen picked up a cute outfit. She ran up to Dave, showed it to him, and then said, "Love it!" *****She calls freckles, "pickles." It's so cute. I can't correct her.
CONNOR: We were in a bathroom in California and I jokingly asked Connor if he needed a diaper change. (He is potty trained!) He looks at me seriously and says, "I don't know. Let me check." And proceeds to pull down his pants. *****One night we were out late shopping. On our way home Connor fell asleep. I tried to wake him up to ask him what he wanted for dinner at MCDonald's and because bed time was only an hour away. He groggily responded, "But the sky is down!" ***** Playdough for Connor is pronounced, "potato." Again, can't correct it.
BROOKE: We were watching a video of Panda sneezing and she thought it was so funny. She said to me, "Connor and Aspen have to see this! They will crap up!" *****At the grocery store, the kids always fight over who gets to ride in the "car" part (only room for two). So yesterday I asked who would volunteer to sit in the basket part. Aspen willingly volunteered so I let her choose a treat. I was telling Dave about it before family prayer and Brooke said, "Next time you do that, I'll Bolunteer!" *****Brooke calls eyelashes, "eyeflashes." Too sweet.
