Gracie is gonna get ate-en!

Daisy is trying to play with my moms tiny dog named Gracie. 

Marinn whispers to me, "Mom, Gracie is gonna get ate-en!.... Because Daisy likes to eat dogs!"

Where do my kids come up with this stuff? 

Spit-tastic!

Shaw has officially mastered the art of the spit bubble.

He says, "Maaa Maaaa Maaa" as he makes bubble after bubble. 

If you start just saying "Maa Maaa Maaa" he will automatically start producing bubbles. 

I love my boy!

Toothbrush Addict

Shaw LOVES toothbrushes... 

...he doesn't care if it's his, if it's purple with Dora on it, if it was used to scrub the toilet. If he can find one he will. And he will take off in a sprint to keep it in his mouth just brushing and chewing away. 

Just now he snuck upstairs to the 3rd drawer in the bathroom (which he knows is where the toothbrushes reside) and stole the purple Dora toothbrush. 

I guess this insures that he will always have clean teeth :) 

"The Child Warmer"

After having some nice jacuzzi time with the whole family we were quickly trying to get dried off and in the house... Marinn and Taurin had taken off their suits and were drying off and I look over to see this:

Marinn and Taurin holding on to my moms outdoor heater! 

It was too hilarious to pass up this photo opportunity.  

 Shaw needed a warm up as well.

Who needs a towel straight from the dryer when you have a "Child Warmer"?!?

Turkey Pumpkins

Me and the girls got super motivated today and after some flash cards and practicing writing the letter A we decided to turn some pumpkins into turkeys.  

We downloaded this super cute template and wha la! pumpkin turkeys! 

After placing the pumpkins in the front yard, Taurin saw the wind blowing the feathers of the turkeys and exclaimed, "Our turkeys are going to fly away!!!" 

Bad boys talk to the hand.

Yesterday we had 2 very hilarious moments... one from each of my hilarious girlies....

Moment #1:
Taurin is sitting by pops and he puts up his hand and says, "Talk to the hand."
Taurin leans in and says, "Hellooooo."


Moment #2:
I'm relaxing in the chair with my feet up and Marinn walks by and touches my not-so-smooth heels.  She says, "We need to get some lotion on these bad boys!"

Bobbie

We are staying with my mom and she also has a man that rents her downstairs.  His name is Bobbie and he has severe diabetes and a few mental set backs. He spends most of his days at thrift stores and cruising around on his Moped but we see him in the evenings.  The kids just love talking to him.

On Thursday during my midwife appointment Taurin randomly says, 

"My dad took Bobbie to the doctor."  (This was accurate information).  

My midwife says, "Who is Bobbie?" 

Taurin replies, "He's white."

I started laughing so hard because it is kind of hard to explain our relationship to him but I was surprised that was Taurin's choice to describe him! 

Here they are with Bobbie at his birthday party last night.
