Jessie said...: I love your blog! I love to stop by and see what your cute family is up to! It seems like I don't get to talk to you as much so I have to catch up on you through your blog now. Keep the updates coming.; September 5, 2008 at 1:32 PM
Tara said...: Why - because I just love you and this is the only way I can see how you are. You are also so good with words. I know that I haven't even e-mailed or called since we came to Vegas... but thank you again. Jared felt the same way I did - we just didn't want to leave and it really felt like it hadn't been so many years since we had seen each other. You are amazing and I feel so blessed to have you as a friend and "sister" - what memories we have. Also - thank you for taking care of my precious boys - they had a great time...
So the reason why I check you out - is because now that I know your kids - I love to see what they are doing and what you and Jeremy are doing... it makes me happy! :); September 5, 2008 at 9:50 PM

Quotes

Troy: While reading/looking at the book Ten Little Rubber Ducks he yelled at Leah who was playing loudly with Millie, "Stop it Leah! I'm trying to concentrate!"

Sam: in the car "It smells like throw up in here." Leah: I think it smells like brownies."

Troy: "My feet are the bad guys." Said while kicking his baby sister.

Troy: "That sounds like a good idea." When offered a mini candy bar for going potty.

Leah: "All I really eat at McDonald's is french fries and a Diet Coke"

Leah: "Don't you DARE pick me up from school today."

Troy: "Mom! I count, YOU hide! k?"

Troy: "Hode me, I sfe-ood" Translation: Hold me, I'm scared.

Leah: "Crickets eat people who have red cars."

Things I've Learned...

Children are very trusting. Leah caught me eating a handfull of M&M's. She asked me what I was eating and in an effort to avoid sharing with her I told her I was eating "beans". At first she didn't believe me but I insisted. Today she has asked for some "beans" about three different times.
--Shaunie learned that humans are mammals, but Leah had a hard time grasping the idea. She ended up just calling her dad a "manimmal" instead.
--When Leah says "Mom, I'll hold it for you." She really means "Mom, I'll take that from you and eat it."
--You can take pictures of pictures with your digital camera (goodbye scanner!)

Nakie

We were on our way to get Sam from preschool a couple weeks ago (when the weather was nice) and a neighbor down the street was washing his car. He didn't have his shirt on because the sun was still pretty warm. Leah pointed at him as we walked by and said "Look Mommy, he is nakie!" She couldn't believe that someone would go out without clothing. How wrong! I tried to explain that he was just hot so he wasn't wearing his shirt, but she insisted that he was 'nakie'. Then she asked as if she had found the only solution, "Where's his mommy?"

GO to BED!

Last night we were coming home from an errand and Leah was really upset. She was missing her old, brown car seat (yes, the fact that it was brown was very important). She was whining like we had taken away her most beloved doll. Oh the injustice of giving her brown car seat away! She loved that car seat and now that was all she wanted in the whole world. After a while of listening to her whine Sam piped up, a little fatigued of her complaints and said, "Leah, just go to bed!" In quick retort and without skipping a beat, Leah replied "But I will just dream about my brown car seat!"
