Trouble w/ a Capital T!

Tonight at the end of scripture study Terron asked the boys what we had learned.

Dallen: "We need to follow Jesus."

Terron: "What happens if we don't?"

Dawsen: "We get in trouble."

Terron: "What kind of trouble?"

Dawsen: "BIG trouble."

Well...it's true, right? :)


LOVING these boys.

Hips Don't Lie

Dawsen: "Mommy, when Dax drinks the milk it goes to his tummy?"

Me: "Yup."

Dawsen: "Then how come when you eat it goes to your hips?"


Loving these boys.

The Truth About Santa

Today the older boys were talking about a Diego episode they were going to watch about Diego saving Christmas. During their conversation I said in jest, "Wait a minute - are you saying Diego IS Santa Clause?"

Dallen - "NO! Santa is Santa."

Me - "I was just kidding. Do you know how I know that Diego isn't Santa?"

Dallen - "How?"

Me - "Because I'M Santa. Seriously."

Dallen - "Whatever, Mom."

Me - "It's the truth. I buy your presents, then after you go to bed on Christmas Eve me and Daddy stay up and put all your presents out for you."

Dallen - "Ya right, Mom." (Seriously not believing 1% of it or I probably wouldn't have said all that.

Me - "Why don't you think I'm Santa?"

Dallen - "Because you're just not that cool."

Not that cool, huh? Ha! Well....I tried. They can't ever be mad at me when they find out because I told them! And now I've even documented it!

Bath Toys

I LOVE a good, hot bath. Anytime, really, but especially when I'm pregnant. Even when I'm not big and huge yet it seems to help relax my body and even helps with my morning sickness. When I was pregnant with Duncan there was a night that I was prepping my bath (still dressed, fyi) and I was using the boys toy boat to mix the water. Dallen walked in, assessed the situation with a curious look on his face and asked, "Mommy, do you want to play with some of my other bath toys, too?"

Fast forward to this pregnancy. Last week I was again prepping my bath, using the boat to mix the water when Dawsen walked in. He gave the same perplexed look as Dallen had, but asked, "Are you playing with my boat? You didn't ask!"

Yes, my boys, I play with all your toys when I'm in the privacy of the bathroom. Little did you know... NOT! :)
