Coming From Jack

I thought this was cute, last night I was brushing Jack's teeth when we found a comb. We said to me,
Jack- "Mommy could you make me handsome".

Me- "Sure"

Me- "Oh you look so handsome"

Jack- "Yeah just like Jordan" (my brother)

I thought Jordan would get a good laugh from this, apparently you are really admired by your nephew.

Thanksgiving

My Camera Broke

Well my camera is broken, I just need to get to Best Buy to replace it, but until then it kind of puts a damper on the whole blog thing. How do you like my new Christmas/Winter Backround. I was getting so sick of the fall one. Nicole it looks like we have the same taste!

Family Night

We have been doing FHE really well this month and we have had so much fun. The first thing Jack says when he hears Family Night is "Yeah we can do Ring around the Rosie". We end with singing songs, the boys love this one, over and over again. I got this idea off of my friend Anne's blog and the boys loved it. Well Linc loved eating everything. We were pretty impressed with Jack he put the marshmellows and the grapes on the back feathers all by himself. I asked Justin to cut the beak out of cheese and that almost took him the whole time. I was wanted just a trianle piece and of course he had to carve out a perfect beak. He even asked me to go print off a picture of a turkey so he could see exactally what their beaks looked like.....that's why we love him so much. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Do as I say.....Not as I do

Well this is how I found Jack yesterday when i went downstairs. How does he know where I even keep the chocolate chips????? He has obviously seen this done before. How could I get mad, he's just like me!

My Brother is Engaged!

We are so happy, my brother is engaged! We love Kristine and are excited to have her in the family. Jack pretty much always mentions Kristine whenever he talks about Jordan so the kids already feel like she is an aunt. I just thought this picture of them was so good. we love you guys!

Las Vegas Zoo

This zoo gets 2 very big thumbs down.....very lame. We were all excited to see teh tiger and we get there and there is a sogn, "In Loving Memory" from 2003. It was just the most ghetto zoo you can imagine with a million birds flying everywhere....Gross. Jack enjoyed it though, Linc was afraid of the birds, big giant roosters would like come right up to the stroller, he wasn't a fan.

The Patrick Pirates

the boys new favorite thing is playing pirates. Jack brought down the laundry basket last night and said it was a pirate boat. The boys lately love sword fighting, except Jack always get the big sword....sorry Linc.

Feeling left out!!!

Okay so Jack's new thing is "thats for girls, or thats for boys!" He is constantly saying this about everything, and tonight we went to see the "Bee Movie" (very, very cute by the way) and Jack had a special Pez that he picked out for his candy. Well I happen to love Pez so when I asked him for one he said, "No mom this candy is only for boys!" Okay fine then!!! The other day he said to me, "mom you can have Lincoln and I will have dad because he is a boy". Oh well I guess he still does come running to me when he's hurt or needs comfort. I just need to get used to the fact that I am the odd man (or women) out in this family......I need a girl so bad. I did have a dream the other night that we had a little girl!

Whatever makes Jack happy day

This morning Lincoln and Jack were fighting over the ABC cookie cutters. Like always Jack was trying to neatly organize them, and Linc wanted to destroy! So I decided to put them away and that would solve the problem. About 10 minutes later I go upstairs and Jack is hugging Justin. I guess he came upstairs and was pouting over in the corner of our room. When Justin got out of the shower and asked him what was wrong he said, "Mommy made me really sad because she took away the ABC's". That has been his famous line lately, "Mommy you are making me really sad......." I had heard enough of it so I decided we would do whatever made Jack happy today. So this morning he played outside in the dirt, then had lunch, we made Sugar Cookies, ABC's of course, and I made him an awesome fort! He still has a couple more hours left so we shall see what else come of the day.

Happy Halloween!
