Quote of the Week

One of the last days at daycare this year, they had a Teddy Bear Picnic. The kids read the book "Teddy Bear Picnic", they all brought their favorite bear to school and we had to send them with a packed lunch so they could eat picnic style. The night before, picture Josh and Jacob laying in Jacob's bed before night night....

Josh: Tomorrow is going to be so much fun! You guys get to have a picnic outside with your teddy bears!
Jacob: (All exasberated) OH NO.....I NEED A LUNCH BOX!!!!
Josh: Don't worry, Mommy got you and Lilly lunch boxes so you are all set
Jacob: (Sigh of relief) Mama's the best...she always gets the best stuff....I shouldn't worry

Workin' That Toothbrush

So it's her brothers....I figure it's still good for her teeth :)

Quote of the Week

In another episode of funny things that Jacob says while on the potty, we were having our nightly discussion and it went something like this....

Jacob: Mama, how many are you?
Mama: I'm thirty-one
Jacob: How many is Daddy?
Mama: He's thirty-two
Jacob: That's older than you!
Mama: (Insert big smile) Yes it is
Jacob: I'm four...just four...I don't have another number
Mama: (Died laughing)

Paper Towel Anyone?

We looked away for just a second.....

Quote of the Week

As the whole family is getting ready to head out the door, Jacob sees his Dad packing his bag with his lunch and says "Daddy, how come your teacher doesn't make your lunch?" Josh replies with a laugh "Well, bud, I'm the teacher". Jacob thinks for a minute and says "So, do you make everybody lunch?"

A Yankee Fan?

Jacob loves to sing...see following video.
Key Highlights:
1. Not sure where the head movements came from
2. We are working to substitute Cubbies for Yankees
3. Pay special attention to "Three STRIPES you're out"

Too funny :)

The Lake

Our new favorite place is the Lake House. It's so beautiful and I'm just so thrilled to watch my kids begin to create memories here! Here are some pics from the first weekend out there. There was still some work to be done, but we had a blast!

Jacob's first fish!

Quote of the Week

Potty time has become somewhat of a procrastination technique when it comes to Jacob and bedtime. He knows that if he says he has to go potty, then he can get up and use the bathroom. He's now figured out that if he hangs out there long enough, he can prolong bedtime even further. He was sitting on the potty, having his nightly deep thoughts conversation with me and when I told him he needs to hurry it up because it's late, he said the following:

"Come on poop....it's time to come out! My momma said it's bedtime, so you can't stay in me any more. Come on poop...come on.....don't you want to come out? I think you do." He then looks up at me and says "I don't think it wants to come out....it said it wants to wait 'till morning."

P.S. I have tried to get this on video, but he clams up as soon as the camera goes on :)

The Other Woman....

I really don't know how to begin this post...I guess you could just say that I'm devastated...I'm crushed...and I'm not sure how to proceed. Here I thought things were good...I was happy...then one of my "friends" shows me this love note that MY HUSBAND wrote her...

Good thing he wrote it to Kimber in the 7th grade or he would be in BIG TROUBLE!!!! :)

Sorry for the scare....just a little fun amongst friends! And Kimber, I must say that, I always knew Josh had good taste!

Pigtails!

What's better than one bow? TWO BOWS....of course :)
