My Kids Make Me Laugh!!!!

Everyday Gracyn and Michael do something, actually many things, that make us laugh. I'm going to try to post a some of them. Hopefully they will make you laugh too.

Gracyn's verbal skills and vocabulary is pretty outstanding for a 3 year old. She LOVES to use big words even if she doesn't know what they mean. She also likes to make her own words up. So tonight at dinner she had the dreaded "mashed faux-tatoes" ( aka mashed cauliflower ) on her plate. For some reason she really hates it. The dinner rule in our house is you have to have at least one bite of everything before you can be excused. So after every excuse on why not to eat the gross mashed cauliflower she finally takes her bite. Hmmm not so bad. After a few more she says...... "This cauliflower tastes gorgeous!"

Poor little Michael is sick. He has had a temperature since Friday and has not been his funny, sweet little self. He is very needy and whiny... poor guy. He will clamp his mouth shut when it is Mortin time and will fight as hard as he can not to have his temperature taken. After a little wrestling, I finally got the thermometer under his armpit and he yells out "Uh-Oh." Lots and crying and uh-ohs until the thermometer finally beeped and read 101.7. I felt so bad for him but it was just so darn cute. "Uh-Oh!"

Where did my sweet little boy go?

Oh Michael! He is still such a sweetie but he is definitely turning into a little boy. He LOVES to climb anything he can. He loves to hit the walls, tables, windows, etc with any hard object. He loves to run (well, at least the best he can right now.) If you turn your back for 2 seconds...... you can find him on top of the kitchen table. He is still trying to figure out how he can get from the rocking chair in his room to his dresser. Hmmm, I'll give a week or two before he masters that one! Here are some fun pictures of our little man in action.

I LOVE to be loud!

Watch me climb mama.

I just climbed up into my sissy's chair to finish off her french toast.

Getting ready to destroy the bath room.

This is MY stroller. I do fit in it...

SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meet Baby Jesus

Yes that's right, this is baby Jesus. Gracyn recently has become interested in dolls again. So, I pulled out some old cabbage patch kids of my own. She instantly took to this one and named it Jesus. I never though I would here statements like "be quiet mommy, Jesus is taking a nap" or " I need to go change Jesus's diaper." So Cute!!! Gracyn loves Sunday School and always has so many questions for us after. She is still not entirely convinced that Jesus is a man because she thinks the name Jesus sounds like a girl name!
