Im the baby gotta love me!

He he. He is so cute.

Please dont shoot!

Kari-Lynn and I went to wal-mart the other day with Skyler. It was pretty chilly outside. When we walked in the door the greeter lady told us how happy she was that we had bundled up the baby she said:

"Some parents bring their babies in without hats or warm coats or anything. It makes me want to take out my mommy gun and shoot them."

She seemed quite over zealous. But I was glad I passed the test. I felt a little smug. (ok so I am a shameless glutton for aproval. I know, but hey that is another story)


We were together at walmart again the other night. It was cool but not that cold out. As we walked out the door I flipped the blanket thing over top of the baby but I was not too picky about it. Then walmart lady leans over the cart as she says:

"O thats not very well covered up!"

I said something about covering him up more before we went through the second set of doors. Then she asked to see a reciept for our purchases as we had not put them in bags.

Yup last time I was responsible this time I am a parent who does not cover her baby well and steals baby wipes and formula!

Cool

Hey did you know you can use blogger now to post pics directly. I just learned this. I always thought you had to use a photohosting site like flickr. Cool.

Kings and Criminals

Ryan was trying to sneak away from the table with his macaroni and cheese today I stopped him once. Minutes later he was at it again. I saw him in the hall way and told him to bring it back. He paused for a moment and responded NO and ran into the living room. I caught him just as the plate spilled all over the floor. As I was cleaning it up I noticed Breanna arranging her chair with a can of pop on either side. She said.

"Im the king and those are the servants that go by my throne"

My son is practicing for a life of crime and Breanna is having delusions of grandeaur. Hmm I dont know which to worry more about.

Good News Gourd Recoverd

Ok not so good news. I found a piece of it on the driveway.

Bring back Jack

In the last few days we have had a shovel and a jacolantern taken from by our front step. I wonder if our tennant insurance covers gourds. Hmm

Breanna, obviously a little botherd by the whole breastfeeding thing said to me the other day.

"We dont eat boobs!"

Counting Down

So Im at 38 weeks tomorow. This baby is a reality. Wether I am ready for it or not I could be having a baby almost any time. So make your guess. My due date (according to the ultrasound) is October 21st. Jon thinks it will be soon as the Braxton Hicks are becoming more frequent. I refise to have the baby before next friday though. I want to finish my class. Breanna and Ryan both came a couple days after their due dates so we will see. Any way leave Your guess for the date and gender in the comments box and the closest guess wins............ well pretty much the satisfaction of being right.

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY BREANNA

My little girl is 4. Holy cow. So far today she got a brand new pink backpack for preschool and is eating a lovely healthy birthday breakfast of apple crisp and ice cream.

Because thats the way it works.

Today is the first day of Fun Factory at the YMCA (their playschool) for Breanna. Guess what. She is sick. The kid has not been sick all summer and today she wakes up with a runny nose and coughing. Great. Lets pray for a cure to the common cold by lunchtime.

Just dont call me late for dinner

I have a new identity. Mompaa. Breanna just started calling me this. I tried to stop her at first because it really bugged me. Then I realized I was in a bad mood and just being a pain and I said ok. I thought it would kind of last a day and wear out. Not so much. She likes the name and it seems to have stuck. Although Ryan has not jumped on the band wagon. I dont know where it came from though, maybe it was on a tv show or something.

Today I thought I heard another kid calling Mompaa to their parent and deep down inside I thought. "hey Im Mompaa no one else gets to be Mompaa!"

Ings Inspired by Nikki

Siblings

I had just put Ryan down for a nap and I was occupied doing something when he called out from his crib. Breanna informed me he was calling and I told her to leave him because he needs to have his nap.

Moments later Ryan calls again and I hear Breanna call to him in her most bigsterly tender voice.

"I know you want mommy Ryan but your big sister is coming"

I could have melted. Breanna went upstairs to his room. I heard the door open and Ryan moving around in his crib. Up I went expecting to find her in the room playing with him. When I got there his door was closed, he was quiet and she was in her own room. So I asked her if she went in to see him.

"Yeah and I made him warm with a blanket."

I peeked in his room and saw him lying down again with a tiny baby blanket across him.

Anyone who knows Breanna knows of her love for her stuffed Monkey. If Breanna is heading for bed and forgets her monkey Ryan will grab him and come running to the bottom of the stairs to bring her Monkey because he knows it is important to her.

They yell at eachother and fight a lot right now. Most recently Breanna has begun to learn the fine art of name calling. So far I have heard her call him. Dummy Garbage, little cootie and my personal favourite: scurvy bones. But in spite of it all I know they love each other. Moments like these remind me that yes we can handle the third baby that will join our family in a little while here. And yes they do love each other. And if I can just remember to hide the peanut butter for the next few years I might just make it through.

(if you are wondering about the peanut butter ask me again in a few years and I might be ready to talk about it)

A pretend party

Breanna: You ate my pretend cake! Im going to bonk you over the head!!

Me: (thinking) She wouldnt dare!

BONK

Ryan: WAAAHHHHHH

Me: Why did you do that!

Breanna: He ate my pretend cake!

Me: Well dont hit him! Pretend there is another one! (or at the very least pretend to bonk him!)
