I Know a Few Languages

The other day when I was on the phone with my mom, my wonderful son JT was driving me crazy. I'm sure I'm not the only mom that this happens to, but every time I get on the phone my children either suddenly need me or they want to make loud noises to annoy me. Well, JT comes over and turns this loud toy on right by my other ear. I got annoyed and said "Don't do that." It was then that I realized that all I had been saying all afternoon is "Don't do that", "Stop that," "No," or "Not now." I proceeded to tell my mom that this is the only language I know anymore. My son who was listening pipes in-- "Mom, you know a little bit of Spanish. Tell me if you know what I'm saying. I want some agua." My mom and I were laughing so hard. Even if I was annoyed --he sure makes me laugh at times.

Our Recent Purchase

So heres our most recent purchase--well, besides a home and all the other stuff that goes with that. My boys got to watch our new piano delivered to our home yesterday. They were so excited and played their own little songs. I'm finding out that I'm going to need some furniture in that room very soon-so the sound doesn't echo so much.

Annual Turkey Bowl



Heres another turkey bowl and we only came away with a few minor injuries. Donovan smashed his ring finger and could barely get his ring off a few hours later. The poor thing had to use my lotion to get it off (I think that was the worst part) Actually, it was all black and blue and slightly swollen. No fun without some pain

Our New House




Here's the new house my boys inherited with our new home. They love it of course and so do I. Because for a few more warm days they can go outside and play and not get too bored.

Fun Halloween Lunch



These were fun. My boys made these hotdogs wrapped in rhodes roll dough. We took a rhodes roll for each hot dog and let it thaw and then the kids rolled it into a long snake and wrapped it around the hot dog. We stuck a stick in the hotdog and cooked for 20-30 minutes. Nate couldn't quite get the idea of the long snake. So he decided the real way to make this lunch, was to just put individual pieces around the hot dog. It did turn out and he loved it just the same.

Our little Princess


While we were at my nephews birthday party my little nieces decided to dress Nate up as a princess. For some reason he doesn't look that happy.
