We know we need to get back into blogging
it's just SO HARD with 3 little busy boys
running around and well the "catching up" part
is really very daunting staring up at a mountain of pictures
to climb! But we will try our best!
Maybe this post will start a new determination:
We were sitting around on a lazy day one day
when Mommy asked:
M: Who do you think the boys love them more, me or you?
D: Well I don't know maybe you but then again maybe me?
Why don't we ask them?
M: G! C! come here please
(G and C come over)
M: Who do you think loves you more?
Mommy or Daddy?
G: (thinking for a little while)
MOMMY!
M: YES! C what do you think?
C: MOMMY!
D: WHAT!?!?! I love you too!
G: I know you do, its just, its just mommy loves us more!
M: Why do you say that?
D: Yeah why do you say that!? I play soccer with you!
G: Well playing soccer is fun but mommy loves me more
Because well She just CARES more about me!
Like she does a LOT of stuff for me and cares a lot.
(Seeing the look on daddy's face)
What!?! She DOES!
D: (realizing this truth) You are RIGHT bud! You are very right!
(After he leaves)
D: Well that didn't go the way I thought it was going to go!
M: I KNEW IT! I KNEW you would think they would say YOU!
DO NOT poke the MOMMA Bear you know I love them more!
(BAHAHAHA!)
There is no REAL competition but it was fun to see what they would say.
We both sure do love them A LOT!
We really do give them our all!
Daddy works so hard at work and comes home
and helps mommy when he can but mostly LOVES to play with his boys.
Mommy works so hard to make sure they have EVERYTHING they need
even if it means sacrificing her wants or needs or desires so they can be happy!
She LOVES being able to be at home with them!
We hope they always stay tenderhearted and full of love for everyone in our family!
We have been battling a few cases of sickies around here:
The first occasion C was NOT sick but
he might have had "sympathy pains" the poor guy.
C: Mommy my belly hurts.
M: Okay do you want some belly medicine?
C: Um yeah and I need something for my neck.
M: Your neck?
I thought your tummy was sick?
C: It is so I need a hot water bottle for my neck!
M: You need a hot water bottle for your neck to help your belly feel better?
C: Yup! And a cold cocoa!
.......
Alright!?!
That is indeed what he got and he never actually got sick that time.
G was dealing with a terrible stomach bug this is where the "belly hurting"
came from.
The second occasion he actually was sick:
M: Are you sick?
C: Umm my belly hurts a little
M: Well I think you have a fever too
so I don't think you can go to preschool.
(some talking between G and C happens)
G: Let me see...
M: NO! Stay away from him he has a fever and is sick!
G: He says he's not sick!
M: I'm saying he is.
C: G says I 'm sick and You say I'm not sick and I say I am!
M:..... What!?! Are you sick?
C: You think I am but I think I'm not.
(Pause while mommy tries to follow....)
Can we go to Toys R Us?
M: WHAT!?! No, if you're sick you're not going to preschool
and we are NOT going to Toys R Us!
C: But going there might make me feel better!
M: So you are sick!?
C: If you say I am... I say I'm not sick...
(At this point We can't figure out if he is really feeling sick but there is a slight fever.)
Mommy takes G to school and comes back
a little while later
(he didn't go to preschool)
.....
M: Do you need anything? Are you sick?
C: No, I'm just tired but I might want a cold cocoa it always makes me feel better!
This one and his "cold cocoas!"
The last one is so cute we hope to get it on video:
R is starting to talk
He says Ball, Baba, Dada, Momma, and UP!!!
(among other words he's learning)
and the cutest thing is when we are trying to find something
(usually his binkers)
M or D: Binkers Where ARE you!?!
R: WheAAAWWuuuuu!!??
SOOO stinking cute!
He is getting so big!
They all are!
Time just keeps on passing by so fast!
We are going to try and document more
of our day to day lives.
We always take a TON of pictures when we
go places but not very many of just us laying around the house.
Maybe we should catch up before we take on that task....
Maybe once in a while we will do
"A day in the life of Chaos"
Series or something!
(Just for your viewing pleasure!)
