a christmas story

so, today, my 2nd child who is so very intelligent, decided he really didn't think a tongue would stick to a frozen car.  why continue arguing with the child?  he wouldn't do it, right?  an hour after dropping him off at my mom's i get a call.  "by the way, Killian got his tongue stuck on Jen's car while waiting for the bus," says my mother oh so calmly.  "he pulled it off, just a little blood."

yes he has watched this movie.  yes he was warned, lots and lots of times.  no, i don't have a picture to forever remember and show his future girlfriends and children.  bummer :)

goo's boo-boo

this doesn't look like someone with "the worst boo-boo i've ever had". this was about an hour after 'The Bookbag Incident' right before we went into the ER. thankfully no teeth are loose just a little sore and only one stitch required.

a little numbing gel before stitchin' time. don't pick your nose!!

















this boy was awesome! he was so brave and no complaining. with one stitch and two lollipops he was ready to get back home.

















and back to video games :)

zombie sharks

fall sports have begun.  since this is the first year little goo gets to play in an organized sport he's up first in my fall sports series.  little goo had a soccer game last night and he did AWESOME!! i'm not just saying that cause he's my kid either ;)  his brothers were proud too.  i've never heard them cheer so loudly before!  i can't wait for next week's game to see how the Zombie Sharks do.

little toes

from the first time my little ones' toes poked through my belly i have been fascinated.  the bigger and smellier they get the more i wish i could freeze time and keep my kiddos as babies.  well that's not gonna happen so i guess i have to be happy with pics of sweet little toes.  (scratch n' sniff not included)

now if only my niece would stay still long enough for me to catch her monkey toes!

sweet music

rainy morning...

sunday morning we woke up to the sweet sound of rain drops on the tent.  instead of trying to start a fire in the rain we decided to go to the lodge for some hot food.  too bad it was cold.  at least the coffee was hot and the food looked yummy. 

 

now we're home, unpacked and ready to play monopoly.  what a great way to end the weekend!!

the sky at camp

the real blue camp sky at night was beautiful...
