"My Boogers Are Small"



Channing learned how to whistle.  Now he whistles all day long. 

He's still enjoying kindergarten.  His favorite things are tetherball (he calls it tuggerball), PE, recess, and going to get the milk.  Every few weeks he takes a turn with a partner to get the classes milk.  They can choose regular milk or chocolate milk, I bet you can guess what he picks, everyday for a snack. 


Kindergarten is exhausting!
Some quotes from Mckenzie: As she's picking her nose, "my boogers are small." 

I asked her one day while watching her paint at the dinner table, "why are you so pretty?"  Her response, "Because I wash my face again and again!"

We planted a hydrangea.  Unfortunately Jett ate most of it when we were inside.  There's a few leaves left.  Hopefully it'll come back.
Three things Isaac loves, climbing everything, chocolate zucchini muffins, and playing in water.  He's the only baby we've ever had that'll dunk his own head in water and then laugh about it.  After one zucchini muffin he'll scream until he gets another one.  The latest thing I found him climbing is a water toy he got for his birthday, trust me when I say that it was impressive he climbed into it. 


Do you like Isaac's hair cut? I think it's adorable. Love a good buzz cut.  
Jett likes to stair at me sometimes and wish he were in my bed.  Not gonna happen!

Date with Dad to the skate park.  Got shaved ice and found a praying mantis.  Can it get any better?!

    Have you ever tried running (more like slow jogging) with a double stroller?  My suggestion is to avoid it...unless you're into pain and frustration. I'm a morning workout person.  And I'm not talking about waking up before my kids at 6am and getting in a workout--I'm not crazy.  I'm into doing my workout when it's convenient and I don't have to sacrifice too much.  For example I don't like to exercise when I:  Have to wake up earlier than normal.  Stay up later than normal. Be too cold/hot for a long period of time. Or listen to a kid cry/whine the whole time.     Right now I've chosen to walk/jog in the morning after breakfast and before Mckenzie's nap.  That way the morning goes by quickly and I get a workout in.  Justin and I signed up for a race here in Meridian and that's my workout motivation...hence the jogging with a stroller.  I'm pretty sure the double stroller ways at least 75lbs with the kids in it....

$$ for Jeeps

Well I've done it again - bought another Jeep. But this time it was Melissa pushing me to do it! (what a good wife!) It's a 99 Grand Cherokee Limited (we previously had a Laredo by the same year.) The people were originally asking $4200 but we Hamiltoned them down to $2800 thanks to Melissa. I was talking & negotiating with the husband. And then the wife comes out appalled that the husband was coming down so much in price. And she snapped and said she was firm on $3000. So Melissa stepped up and said "I wouldn't give more than $2800."  The tension was high as the 2 women shot dagger-eyes at each other. Neither one backing down. Finally the husband agreed. And we drove it home. Then 2 days later I decided to list our Cherokee for sale around midnight, by noon the next day (today) I had it sold. It's been a busy day. So in 2012 alone, I've now owned 4 different vehicles. Melissa is the hospital today. She is just starting her preceptorship in labo...

Happy Halloween!

I wanted to do a quick Halloween post so I won't ever forget how adorable Channing was.  He was a scarecrow this Halloween.  We used a pair of his overalls and I sewed on a few patches of material and then we stuffed his pockets with straw.  The paint on the nose thing didn't work so well...he rubbed it off the first time around.  Our ward did a trunk-or-treat in the parking lot.  Channing was a little skeptical about it all when we first started.  But he quickly got the hang of walking up to people, grabbing candy, and putting it in his bucket.  Someone gave him a sucker and he immediately had to have it!  At least he's easy to please!  Such a friendly scarecrow...had to say bye to the trick-or-treaters as they left.
