Nothing!

Mommy: "Big G what is all over your mouth?"
Big G: "Nothing"
Mommy: "Big G you have blue stuff all over your mouth, what have you been doing?"
Big G: "Nothing!"
Mommy: "If I take a picture of your mouth, you'll see what I'm talking about"
(flash/click)
Mommy: "See!?"
Big G: "Oh yeah, I was coloring my lips blue."
Mommy: "I thought you were doing nothing?"
Big G: "That's not nothing, that's me with blue lips mommy!"
Mommy: "Ok, it all makes sense now."

Harvest Party, Preschool Style

Today was Big G's Harvest Party at school. They had a lot of fun listening to the story "Stone Soup" (and making and eating it). They made homemade butter for their bread. Gracie joined in on the fun and was shaking up the jar to make the butter. They drew things they were thankful for and made cute little Indian hats. They ended their celebration with their teachers sharing why they were thankful for their students. Big G's teacher shared she was thankful for him because he always makes her laugh. We left the party and both kids passed out in the car on the way home. We wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!

A Little Dose of the Best Medicine

These videos were taken a few months back and I have wanted to put them up. So better late than never. Enjoy! PS - Happy Monday!

Yea for Pajama Day!

Big G had PJ, Popcorn and punch day at school the other day. He was SO excited to wear his footie PJ's to school. He frankly wants to wear his pajamas everyday all day. Whenever we go anywhere I have to convince him why he need to wear clothes outside. Sometimes I win - other times I just let him enjoy his youth. Happy times, happy boy!

The reality of children

Last week I when I finished my coffee, I found two little treasures in the bottom of my coffee mug. Ya know you have kids when you find "things" in your coffee mug that ya know you didn't put there. Gotta love the 101 uses of rubber bands.

A week of partying!

Wow, what a week. We started it off with a field trip to Fair Oaks Dairy Farm with Big G's preschool. Then it was Harvest Party time at Big G's preschool. Yes, I was gladly roped into the planning and execution of this party. It was so fun getting to know and hang with the kids that Big G hangs with 2 days a week, not to mention the awesome moms that were there helping with the party. Amazing mama's! Then a couple more days passed and then it was Halloween! Yea, so fun. We did the Trunk or Treat at our church again and we decorated our new ride with my decos from my 40th birthday. It was great having everything on hand. It was a whirlwind week. But it was fantastic. We were definitely in Fellowship mode this week. Awesome!
