And Yet Another Look!

Jason wanted to drive the car, too...

Be still my heart. These boys are growing up too fast!

Mostly Wordless Wednesday - Another Look Into the Future!

He's prepping for the future...

(This post was Jason approved. :))

A Look into the Future

Shawn got to sit in the Pilot for a little while this afternoon. He liked it so much, he didn't want to get out. LOL. I think we got to see a little glimpse of our future...

I'm guessing he's going to like driving himself around. :)

Well...we here we are in all our glory! lol

A Letter to the Children

Dearest children,

As much as we all love Harry Potter, please remember that we are not, in fact, actual wizards. (Sadly) That means that when your brother does a "spell" with his wand and turns you into a frog, it truly is pretend. Yelling, crying, and fighting with said brother about turning you back into a boy isn't needed -- you know, because you are still actually a boy. And you know you are. So? I'm not sure why you are so upset.

Because this is pretend. Remember?

Mr. Wand Boy, quit antagonizing your brother and being a turd. Pretend to turn him back if it means that much to him. Got it? Mm Kay?

Thanks,
Your mother

Cute Big Boy Saturday - Hair Band

These two were rocking out this evening. lol

Friday Five

"Mom, what are we having for dinner? Are you making yummy goodness?"

Darn right, kid. Lol. 

So glad we taught them that as the answer to the dreaded "What are we having for dinner?" question!

School story about Jack:

Jack's class went to library and the librarian was reading a story to the class. Jack didn't really seem like he was interested, so the teacher went and sat down next to him on the rug. She said she was going to ask him some comp questions to see if he was paying attention. As soon as she sat down, Jack turned to her and whispered, "Mrs D. It's so quiet in here. I LOVE it!"

Ha!

Jason's teacher assigned reading the first chapter of a book about 9-11. I think she was a bit surprised when Jason came in the next day having read the entire book. LOL. That's what happens when you've got a reader in the classroom.

This week's reward for a good week was a trip to Target. Jason wanted to go see the Halloween display. He came back to the cart with this gem in hand:

Jack would have preferred that Jason skipped that part because Jack just about jumped ship when he saw this thing.

As you can see, he was NOT a fan. Poor kid!

This week, the three boys have really taken an interest in the Wii bowling and the sword fighting games. Their matches are equal parts of joy and frustration for all parties involved. It's kind of funny to watch (most of the time at least).
