Food Choices

After some serious dinner time drama, I decided to have a talk with Rosie about healthy food choices. I asked her to name me a few things that would be "bad" food choices. She responded with "ice cream, gummy bears, and poop."

Good answer Rosie!!

World's Loudest Toy. No Pants required!

Dave got a package in the mail.... and gave it to the kids....

Look how Michael "jumps". Haa haa, he can't quit jump yet, so he runs on the spot. Too cute!

The Kids Said...

1. Rosie - "Look how beautiful this is. When people come over and see my picture, they're going to be so surprised that they'll get the hiccups!"

2. Loved hearing Rosie tell Joseph bedtime stories last night. She makes them up herself.. "once upon a time, in the land of dragons, snakes, and barbies...." Joseph always responds with "that was a great story!".

3. Me- "Joseph, what do you want to name the baby?"

Joseph - "awesome"

4. Rosie "mommy, did you make chicken nuggets and fries?"

Me "No, I made chicken and mashed potatoes."
Rosie (run into the other room in a panic) "I hate that mommy!"

5. While watching Dave play a game on the iphone
Rosie - "Daddy, Mommy is the best at this game, but you're the best at trying."
6. Conversation I overheard between Rosie and Joseph
Roise- "Joseph, why are you so handsome?"
Joseph - "because I'm awesome!"

7. Joseph - "Daddy is the best!"
Me - "oh that's nice."
Joseph - "and you're awful."
Me - "Daddy's the best and I'm awful? That's not nice."
Joseph - "you're just jealous!"

8. Rosie- "Joseph is still waiting for more teeth. (pointing to the gap between his front two teeth) see, he's missing one there."

Where the heck have I been?

I KNOW, it's been a while! I haven't been feeling well because....

I'm pregnant!!! That's right, you read that correctly. Baby #4 will be here around the same time that Joseph and Michael were born. 

Morning sickness, I mean ALL DAY sickness has been at an all time high, and I'm just now starting to feel a tad bit better, thanks to diclectin. We aren't going to find out what we're having, as always, but my mom thinks it's a girl. 

We'll see...

Gross!

So I haven't been feeling to well today, and although my kids are cute as can be, they've also been as messy as can be.

1. Joseph peed all over a decorative pillow and on the carpet (I hate carpet soooo much!)
2. Michael filled his diaper full of stinkiness for the 2nd time today
3. Rosie took a huge dump and it stunk up the entire top floor (her name may be Rose, but she sure doesn't smell like one at the moment!)
4. Michael threw a toy into a toilet full off pee
5. Joseph took a huge dump and now the entire downstairs smells!

Seriously kids, I'm about to PUKE!! I think it's an early bedtime for all of us! I love them but today I just can't handle all the smells.

Michael's new favorite word

I don't know what it is with my boys, but when they're babies, they love saying "dada". It's crazy really. We have a video somewhere of Joseph saying "dada dada dada dada dada dada" over and over again! Michael refers to everything as "dada". Well, today Micheal made a smart choice. He's been walking around for the last 10 minutes saying nothing but "mama"! I love hearing him talk!

Look what I Made!

Here's a quick easy project I made using 1/2 a tea towel and a fat quarter. Unfortunately Rosie didn't get to keep it because it was a gift. Don't worry Rosie, you'll get your own soon :) I'm teaching a class in Relief Society on how to make this. It's going to be great, and I even got one of our suppliers to donate 50 fat quarters for the occasion!

In other news, I was cuddling with Joseph the other day and he fell asleep on me. Shortly after, he did the unthinkable. He peed on me!!!! Dave had a picture, but his cell phone erased it by mistake. Probably a good thing because Joseph positioned the pee so that it looked like I peed my own pants. Good thing he's so darn cute so I can easily forgive him :)
