Older=Smarter?????

My sister-in-law once told me that the older kids get, the dumber they get. I used to think she was joking. Now, I realize that she was totally correct in her statement!! The other night Lucas had just taken a shower and was kind of hungry afterwards. He asked us if he could have a snack. Typically we don't let the kids have snacks on the weeknights but figured we had better 'cuz he had been kind of cranky. After he was given the ok for a snack, Lucas started to second guess whether or not he should have something. His question that came next made Warren and I laugh for hours...here is what he said..."Wait a minute mom and dad. Are you sure I should eat something now? I just took a shower so if I eat now, won't I cramp up?"

Older does not necessarily equal smarter I guess......

New Years Eve

Can anyone see the resemblance???

Christmas 2008

Here are just a few pics from Christmas. The kids had a wonderful christmas and Warren and I were left feeling truly blessed with the gifts we have been given in our children. Hope you all had a great holiday season!

New Addition

Meet the newest addition to our family. Her name is Hailey. She is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle mix...also known as a Cavapoo. We got her at the end of October and she has been a wonderful puppy so far. The kids absolutely love her and Warren has even bonded with her. Her favorite place in the afternoons seems to be Warren's lap!

Student of the Month

Lucas was recently named Student of the Month at school. He was VERY surprised to say the least! He has been a little jealous of his sister when she received the honor, so it was nice for Lucas to be rewarded for his hard work in school as well. We are EXTREMELY proud of him. He worked hard for it! Way to go Lucas!

Easter eggs

Male Bonding...maybe

We have been so busy lately. I really thought I would have updated this sooner but oh well....better late than never!!! Here's a picture of my boys that I ran across the other day and I just couldn't resist posting it. One day in September, the boys were at each other's throats all day....I was about to go crazy!!! That is until I figured out exactly how to punish them...I made them hold hands for 5 minutes. I thought Lucas was going to die!! Cole just sat there and smiled the whole time, but Lucas on the other hand...the boy was having a fit!! Needless to say, it worked! They got along much better afterwards. I guess they just needed some "bonding".

Jello

My brain is officially jello...

I just finished Algebra homework for the week with the help of Jeff Seehafer, my old high school math teacher! I had to call and he came over to help me out. Thank goodness!! I was so confused I was almost ready to cry!! I think I have a good grasp on it now so I should do fine with my test at the end of the week. Wish me luck!!
