Bubble blowing Bub

This weeks theme over at "I heart Faces" is "play."  My kids play all the time but this one wasn't as easy I thought it would be.  There were SO many to choose from!

In the end, I chose one of my nephew (nicknamed Bub) that I haven't shared before.  He was blowing bubbles for the girls on Easter. 

Head over to I Heart Faces and see the other great entries!

Friday Funnies

Last week someone (who shall remain nameless) posted as her facebook status: "FYI: your kids aren't that funny."  Hmm.  Well, my cynical, humorless, single, childless, former-facebook friend, I happen to think my kids are really funny! And I'll prove it.

A conversation in our house last week while the girls were playing:

Reagan: make sure he has a parachute

Skylar: he does have a carrot suit

**************
Bailey has been citing her memory verse from Ephesians as "Children, obey your carrots in the Lord..."

Apparently we like carrots here.

Skylar: Mommy, look! A mow lawner!

Skylar while playing with stuffed animals:

"Come on scout, cross the river with me! You can do it!"

"I can't walk on water! I'm not Jesus!"

"It's just a river, not a ocean Scout!"

Bailey came out of my bathroom last week with a Maxi pad and said "Mommy, bandaid?" :D


What do you think about making this a weekly occurrence? Want to link up with your Friday Funnies?

My resolve

Have you checked a calendar lately? Can you believe that July is almost over?! It feels like May was yesterday. The scarier part is that we are only THREE weeks from Reagan starting first grade! AH! That's a scream of "yikes", not a sigh of relief. I went into this summer with big plans. We were going to move right after school; unpack; feel settled; have fun. We're still working on the unpacking and feeling settled. I had plans to go to a waterpark, the zoo, seaworld, etc. Somehow, we are down to three weeks and haven't done any of that yet!
So, here's my resolve: the next three weeks WILL BE fun! The house can wait. We are mostly settled, and it's time to enjoy our summer. B's sister and nieces are coming for a visit so it's a perfect time for us to do all the "tourist" things in our area. The week after they leave Reagan starts school. I'm happy she's not in year round school, but it seems to start earlier every year. Remember when school started after Labor day?? I think it still does for some kids, but not here. But, she does get three weeks at Christmas and two at Easter. I'm counting my blessings that I haven't heard the "bored" word yet. And today Reagan and Skylar even said, "can we help you clean?" I almost cried. :D What sweet little girls I have. I'm still looking for our digital camera cable. But once I find it, you'll get to see our weeks of FUN! Hope you all have fun too! :)
