Knock Knock??

Isabella was in an interesting mood last night and thought it was a good idea to tell some jokes...
(off course this is at around midnight...)

Knock knock??

Who's there?

Nothing...

Nothing who?

>>> total silence<<<

Behind.

I was looking through my pictures and saw that there's a bunch of them, "moments" that I meant to write about and just never got to it.
Last year I did a lot of that too.
Some great pics and stories never made it to the blog.
I need to be better at this, after all this isn't just for me, although it helps me with my failing memory.
Several times already I had to check the blog about some random thing that the kids asked, and I couldn't remember.

This blog is for my children. I want them to know that I enjoy every minute I get to spend with them.
Yes, yes, even those not so happy, wonderful moments. I am just so lucky to be part of their lives.
I love them so very, very much.

And so, I've decided to every once in a while post something that I may have missed, that isn't necessarily current, but will fill in some gaps.

ONE WORD...

Out of this world

Isabella: "Where are we going?"

Me: "No where... oh actually, Wal-mart."

Isabella: "Are we going to Disney world?"

Me: "Uh... NO, we have to plan that kind of trip"

Isabella: (With as much drama she could muster) "Oh, no! I want to goooo mommeeeeee..." (snif-snif, boo-hoo)

Me: "Bella, we need to plan it first, we can't just go."

Isabella: "I never get to go anywhere because we need to planet, and it's too faaaar... I don't like planets!

5 minutes later...

Isabella: "Moooommm, where are we going???"

Me: Ugh!

Kindergarten Spring Pictures

These are the spring pictures that were taken about a month ago in school.
We think they turned out pretty good. The first one is our favorite, the second one he's a little stiff.
But you see, I thought this was only supposed to be a "class picture day" as they advertised the whole week before.
Joshua is one of the tallest in his class, so I assumed he would be in the back row for the picture; Hence the "ripped jeans" look.
(ok, ok, AND I forgot to do laundry the night before!!!)
I really didn't think that they would take individual pictures all over again.
go ahead call me a rookie...
We totally fell for it too... We originally only bought the class picture, but as you can see...

Joshua is 6!

Joshua,

We are so blessed to have you in our lives. We're so lucky that you're part of our family.
Your sweet smile and funny laugh brighten our days. Your kindness and willingness to forgive is an example and inspiration to all of us.
We Love you so much, and could not imagine our lives without you.
Happy Birthday!

Edgy

Isabella came up to me today and said

"I need new underwear Mommy."

Ok... what's wrong with the ones you have now?

"It keeps going up my edgy, It's too small."
