Boys and Girls...

I love the fact that I have been blessed with boys and a girl. Here are a few things that they did this past week.
Emma's "goin to Wal Mart" outfit. When she found out we needed to go out to the store, this is what she put on. Her purse is never far from her side! It's packed with little toys. She cries when I make her leave it in the van. She wants to be like me and take it everywhere.
I found this dress at Target for only $1.50. Can you believe it! These kind of finds give me a high. No, I am not addicted to shopping!
Ean wanted to put these new Toy Story 3 posters up in his and Evan's room. I said sure! Right now I will take TS3 any day. I wonder what the future holds in this area? Don't even want to go there.

Ean is doing the "Mario" pose. See the difference between boys and girl? Emma in her dress with purse and high heels. And Ean ready to take on the next bad guy that comes along. This just makes me smile!

Words...

Ok, every family has them. Those words that only your family says and knows what they mean. Let me give you some examples...



Paci...aka pacifier

B...Ean's burp rags

Burp...Evan's burp rags

Guck...anything that has fallen on the floor or is yucky

Spit...vomit or throw up

Blunanas...bananas

Buggies...any bug, bee or wasp we might see

Getting thrown...see pics below.




























This could freak a Mom out, but I have gone with it. Evan asks John every night if he can "get thrown". I think Evan lives for this. I love that the kids will have these memories of their Dad when they are grown up. I love my family!






John's project...

Every time we have moved, about 5 times now. We have to, I mean John, has to pack up all of his books. He has over 1000. I am thankful that he now owns a "nook"! At a home schooling conference a few years back, John saw these book shelves. They are made of pine, and that makes them light and they can be moved with a dolly! No more packing up and unloading ever again! Here are some pics of John working on them. I am so thankful for all the work he did on these. I love them!







All made before paint.

Painting!


All painted.








Getting full!
