Our days are filled with lots of conversations even more now that Anderson is really talking. His sentences really amaze me at this age. I guess because he has an older brother and I took his paci earlier, he is talking so much. Anyway, I thought I would share some of the phrases that have been said recently that make me laugh!
Bently:
"I am all cowboyed up." Hmmm, not real sure where this came from!
"Come here little red head boy."
"Raise your hand if you are a homeboy." Straight from the mouth of his Daddy!
"I need to go call the neighbor. Be quiet while I call the neighbor!"
Anderson:
"Bubba need a pank." Bubba needs a spanking!
"Mom, come." Just the words I HATE hearing in the middle of the night!
I'm sure there are more, but I haven't taken the time to write them down as they say them.
It's only Wednesday of this week and I seriously think I am losing my mind! Monday I washed and dried a load of clothes before I remember that I didn't add detergent to the washer! Today I texted Mark asking about some of our plates. All of the dishes were clean and the plates were no where to be found. I just knew someone had "taken" our plates. As crazy as that sounds! :) He quickly reminded me that they are on the buffet right in front of my eyes!!!

Just a little Christmas cheer! |

While Mark was on call this weekend, we made these cute and yummy cookies. Anderson was eating the chocolate chips faster than I could get him to put on his cookie! :) Bently really took his time and designed his just as he wanted. Fun Sunday afternoon.. |

One morning I came down the stairs to find this...the boys had their bears and animals at the movies. To my surprise, they were more still at the pretend movies than the real one! This made me happy because I can remember playing on stairs like this with my best friend when I was younger. We played school though and had all of our students lined up! |

A few scarves that I have made for birthday and Christmas gifts. I've really tried to enjoy this season more this year and make more gifts rather than buying. I have been praying for this season that more people would take the time to see the real Christmas and make the most of it rather than wish it was over. In the past, I've always been sad when the last present was opened because I knew everything was over. So I am looking forward to this year. We will celebrate just the 4 of us Christmas morning. We are hosting a Christmas Eve dinner for friends here that will be alone as well. I look forward to the laughs and stories that will come of that night. Then the boys and I will go back to Louisiana to extend the holiday cheer! We've really been working on the reason for Christmas with Bently and he can tell bits and pieces of the story. It makes my heart happy! They know of Santa (how can you not) but don't understand the concept that he brings gifts and I like it that way!! |

Playing with snow at school Tuesday! This boy LOVES going to school.

Have a fun rest of the week. I am headed to a scarf and cookie swap tonight, so I get to get out of the house, YAY!!!
