We arrived here exactly a month ago. This was probably my favorite month of the year so far. I took some of my favorite pictures, all of which, hopefully aren't lost on my other Mac that is currently totally not turning on. How I am going to take it with the three kids to the Mac store [an hour from here] and stand there while they fix it is beyond me. Moving on.
My days have always been this eventful, but now I just keep my camera in the kitchen so I can always capture these moments [or try to].
I noticed Nation had attached a old digital camera I let him take pictures with sometimes to a string and was swinging it around...when I saw the blood running into Solomon's eye. It's a quarter size lump with a small cut. We butterfly "band-aided" it.
I've really been trying to focus on teaching the kids the Word. I haven't got anything scheduled or organized, but I'm just teaching them at meal times. I made up gestures to this one, but now Solomon says "Mouth-Eyes-Lord-Good".
If it can be climbed on--he will figure it out.
I guess this basketball goal has two purposes.

[Moses fell off the couch while I took this picture...no crying or injury though...small "roll" fall...his first of many I'm sure]
He probably fell because he keeps doing this...beginner crawling.
The boys are always excited when Moses wakes up. I have been training them not to crawl inside the pack n play with him. So...Nation decided tipping it over wasn't technically crawling in-to it.
Moses was just minding his own business in his exersaucer
. Then I turned around to see Nation "mooning" Moses. I grabbed the camera in time to find Solomon was following Nation's example. I snapped before they showed you their behinds.

Nation said he wished he had his own laptop. So he grabbed my book and my keyboard cover 
and made this.
and made this.
Had a genius idea. Drive right up to the river and let the kids play while I clean out the Beast [SUV]. I can do this [in the shade] while they get their wiggles out.
Bonus: "Science Class" at Five Rivers MetroPark
[is it just me or is the sun shinning down on this little creature?]
That concluded my day with the boys. For dinner I made salad, spaghetti and bread. Went straight to the gym for the hardest day ever so far of Couch to 5K while Charles put kids to bed.
I loved your pics, your post & your sense of humor. I like the idea of posting up verses from the bible to every day activites. Sometimes I will post verses or ideas on our fridge for character building, but they are usually geared towards our teens. I love the idea of doing it for the younger ones! Thanks.
ReplyDeletei love reading about your days-i'm officially caught up! one day your children will rise & call you blessed! nation-gotta love him-tell him thank you for making me laugh.
ReplyDeleteWOW. Just wow. The most dangerous thing my girls do is walk on the fireplace. LOL You have the patience of a saint!!! Do you spend all day gasping out loud or do you just roll with it? I'm a gasper, totally.
ReplyDeletelove the laptop-smart boy!
ReplyDeleteI like your blog. You make me laugh, and as a new mother of a boy, you give me insight into what I've gotten myself into. Oh, and Couch to 5K really works. It totally got me into running, and I used to say that I only ran when I was chased. So keep plugging away at it.
