Move over Scrubbing Bubbles!




Having a shower with glass doors is a pain in my back side. We have terrible hard water and it stains after one shower. So I started a rule that the shower had to be wiped dry after each use and then we spray Scrubbing Bubbles- shower cleaner all over. It gets rather spendy and I am probably poisoning my family. Well, Move over Scrubbing Bubbles and meet the newest competitor.

Out smarted by a 2 year old!


This is the cute little boy that I get to watch twice a week. It's nice because Hudson has someone his age to play with. Although Hudson is 3 1/2 and this little boy is almost 2, they get along nicely. Hudson is a very late bloomer in speech and this little boy talks as well as a 4 or 5 year old. He may be the next Bill Gates. Anyhow, today I was reading the boys a book that was a picture dictionary. There was a picture of a french horn and I was drawing a blank, "Little Bill" looks at me like he's giving me time to think and then says, "That's a french horn!" Hudson looks at the picture and calls it a Cow!

Splish Splash I'm Takin A Bath!


These little boys had fun in the tub tonight! Gage and Hudson added extra bubbles to their bath and then turned on the jets! Water and bubbles were everywhere! They both tried to build a snowman, but for some reason Frosty wouldn't stay standing!

"Can I lick the bowl?"












After enjoying a nice meal with our friends on Sunday evening, we decided to make ice-cream. Everyone enjoyed the yummy treat, but I was surprised to see Savannah refusing a bowl of ice-cream. She had other plans. She patiently waited until everyone was through eating and I began to take the machine apart to wash it. "Mom, I didn't get to have any ice-cream. Can I lick the bowl?" Savannah asked me with puppy dog eyes. I saw no harm in it, so I told her to dig in. The funny part of the story is the fact that we lecture our children on proper meal time manners and how to act when we have guests over. (when guests aren't at our home there is usually more food on the floor then on our plates.) I can only imagine what our guests were thinking when they saw the girl above licking a bowl with her tongue and smearing ice-cream with her fingers. All the while her mom is taking pictures! Secretly I too have licked the ice-cream bowl.

Here it is...as requested!







Everyone is asking to see a pic of our new house. It is kinda cloudy outside today, but this will work. Basically it is like our last house. It has a roof, front door, and many rooms inside!

Title: Oh No, Mom has a camera! or Wow, the kids are doing homework!





























"Mom, leave me alone!" "Mom, I'm trying to do my homework." Those are the nice threats. I can't post some of the other comments that my children said, in fear that I might get booted from blogger!
