sO i DoN'T foRgET

Since I use this blog as a journal, it is the perfect place to write down the funny things my kiddos say. So here are a couple:

Camden is still not in his bed (oh I know). He sleeps on a little bed on the floor of our room. Anyway, last night he decided to try to sleep in our bed with us. He climbed in right between me and Wayne and said "We are going to bed as a family, lets go to sleep shall we!" So cute that even daddy couldn't resist and we all went to bed "as a family".

Part of the reason why Camden doesn't sleep in his room is because he gets nightmares often. The other day he woke up and told me, "I don't like bad dreams or good dreams". When I asked him why he didn't like good dreams he said, "because you can't stay in them very long". So very true!

Camden has been asking a lot of questions about marriage and what it means to be married. Today he said, "Mom if we were married I would pick a flower and give it to you". Luckily dad was standing right there so maybe Cam gave him some pointers.

One last thing that I don't want to forget. Teige has been starting to talk a little. Most of which only mom and dad can understand but he is getting it. He knows everyones name in the family, Mom, Dadda, Charice and Dam. Yup, he calls Cam, Dam. Priceless.

Very Eventful Day!

So today I came home to find that Wayne's deer head had fallen off of the wall, knocking over the plant and spilling dirt everywhere. Then I head into the kitchen to find half of a bag of sugar dumped all over the floor. And just because I really wanted to clean up more disasters, my baby dumped fruity pebbles all over the kitchen tonight. I have decided that tomorrow, we are leaving the house and doing something fun for the day! I don't love days when I can't enjoy the little moments because I was spending them cleaning.

Movie Night!

We took Camden to see his first movie tonight.....Tangled! He just sat there and loved every second of it. Such a cute movie!

THe TrEE Is UP!

Finally getting into the Christmas spirit! I have been shopping (which I love) and we have the tree up! All of the kids loved putting up the tree! It was so cute to see them get so excited about it. Charice helped me get it out of storage and set it up then the boys went to town decorating. Teige had a hard time grasping the concept of hanging them on the branches so he would just put them in the tree. There would be a hole with a bunch of ornaments just chilling on top of the branches. The memories!

The tree is now only decorated from about little hands reach and up. It is just too tempting for little boys. Pretty sure we won't have a "pretty tree" for awhile. Can't believe Christmas is coming so fast. Still so much to do!

ChRiStmAS in three Weeks!

I am having such a hard time grasping that today is December 1st and that Christmas is only 3 weeks away! We don't have any Christmas decorations up, including our tree, and I haven't bought hardly any presents yet. I just can't seem to get in the Christmas spirit and I'm not sure why. Just yesterday my sister pointed out that I could be using the whole "I'm gonna call santa" bit. Why the heck didn't I think of that earlier......I could have started using it a month ago. It works oh so well with Cam!

We did see Santa at the mall last week and Camden loved it! Teige wouldn't sit on his lap but that was pretty much expected with his age. So the plan is to get the tree up, buy a few things and get the Christmas music going! Because ready or not, Christmas is coming!

So what's my blog address again?

Seriously it has been so long since my last post that I couldn't even remember how to log on. Why can't I keep this thing updated!? I love writing about funny little things my kids say so that I can look back and have a good laugh. So here is one for ya.......a little blow to the ol ego. When Camden was about Teige's age, he used to always shush me whenever I sang to him. I would be singing along in the car and he would yell, "Mommy shhhhh!" Well, he has passesd the tradition right on to his little brother. Yesterday, I was singing Twinkle Twinkle in the tub to the boys. Teige kept covering my mouth with little hand yelling, "AHHHHH". I thought little kids liked to be sung to. I seriously must be doing something wrong here.

Where have I been?

I am such a slacker! I cannot believe it's been so long since my last post. I refuse to let facebook take over my blogging because my blogging makes the perfect journal!

We have some busy weeks coming up! In two weeks it is my little Camden's 3rd Birthday, in three weeks we are off to Disney Land and in four weeks Teige turns one! So excitingyet so sad that the babies are growing up so fast.

So tonight we were at Garicas eating (kids eat free every Tuesday is the best). Anyways, Charice was coloring on Camden's kids menu and when she finished she showed Camden her masterpiece. Camden's eyes got all big and he said, "That's amazing Charice, I am so proud of you!" I seriously could laugh all day at the things that comes out of his mouth.......well most everything.
