Early Birthday Present

We don't usually have each of the kids buy a present for the one whose birthday it is, simply because we don't need that many things, and that would be a LOT of presents. But Caleb is always one to find something to give. So for Emma's birthday, we saw the fairy lanterns on pinterest and he had to try it. So we cut open a glow stick, shook it into a mason jar, added glitter, and walah! Emma had a fairy lantern to fall asleep with! She loved it! Happy early birthday my lovely Four year old!

Flewing

This morning Emma crawled into my bed and said "Mom, last night I had a dream that a dragon fly came into my room and then it was FLEWING into the night." And it was OURS favorite colors.

I know that I should correct her, but it is so cute to me when they discover new words of their language. I just smiled and asked just what those colors were.

Of course they were pink and purple.

Room Sharing

Caleb, Max and Annalee share a room at the moment. There is a free bedroom downstairs, but I am waiting to move the boys until I can paint it and fix it up, so for now, there are three in a room.

I put Annalee in bed last night and even though she was asleep, when I laid her down she woke. I sneeked out and figured eventually she would go back to sleep. Well, she didn't. She started crying harder and harder and I was already in bed not wanting to leave it, hoping she would give up eventually. I was right. She stopped crying. I was just drifting off to sleep when she started crying again. Thinking she would go back to sleep again, I let her be. Then I heard....

"Mom" right next to my bed, and Annalee took a big sigh.

Caleb then pipes in......

"I've been walking the floors with her, but she just wants you."

Just Wondering....{Annalee}

Just wondering.... If you got any IN you?

Sunday Night Sock Attack

Make sure you have socks on. When the boss says go, try to pull off everyone else's socks while protecting your own. Once your socks are both off, you're out and have to sit on the couch. Last one with a sock on wins. Scramble to get two socks on again hurry quick so you can get the tall ones, they are harder to get off.

So crazy, silly, and fun. We laughed so hard we cried.

Noah

Somebody put a bunch of toilet paper in the toilet. Now it can't be flushed until somone reaches in and takes it out. When questioning who that somebody was who filled the toilet with toilet paper Noah pipes up..."this person's name starts with an "E", ends with an "A" and also includes the letter "M" twice.

I Love how fast he thinks.

Snug as a Bug...under a RUG!

Emma choose to go to her room instead of clean up her mess. When it got awfully quiet I went to check. This is what I found!...... Her asleep in the hallway, under the rug!

really, that can't be comfortable, or clean!

Mara's First Loose tooth!

Right there down on the bottom! It's a loosey goosey!

Pinewood Derby Take 7!

Max's first time! He was so excited!

We even won races this year!

The best part was that Caleb won "Best of Show"

As Ryan says..."It doesn't matter if it wins races, it only matters what it looks like"
