The weekend list

-
A few things from the weekend:
  • Thanks to Mayme who supplied Camden with her son's Star Wars figurines, he is in complete Star War's heaven. (Is it okay to put a limit on Star War's talk? Seriously, he never. stops. talking. about. it.)
  • VBS ended with a program for the parents last night. It was lots of fun, but I'll be glad to have our evenings back.
  • Michael's facebook post yesterday after spending the afternoon with us:
Rory-"Michael how does Liz go potty?"
Me - "You will have to ask her when she comes out."
Camden- (said in a matter of fact way) "She goes like everyone else does. When she pees she stands up and she sits down when she goes stinky!"
Apparently, he hasn't quite learned the difference between boys and girls yet.
  • Matilda Jane is having their one and only annual 40% off sale (with $2 shipping) and I might have placed an order. Okay, two but who's counting.
  • We took the kids to our friend's pool Friday and Camden's serious fear of water is still around. I keep thinking he's going to outgrow it, but not yet. He did go down the big slide (after a little coaxing) and when he popped back up in the water, I told him good job and asked if he wanted to do it again. He replied, "No, but that was nice of you to offer."

I'm working today and Brian has in-service this week so my friend Andrea is keeping the kids. We're leaving town Thursday so this is another short and busy week! I feel as if we're moving in fast forward these days because we're crazy busy and time is flyin'!

I have had very little scrapping time, but here are two older pages I never shared.

Bo read the facebook post to me last night and we got quite a chuckle!! Too cute and oh so innocent and sweet. Glad he likes his recycled figurines. Have a good week.

I love in the carwash pic how Rory's hips are cocked ever so slightly to one side. Total sass.

Blogging, Not Blogging

-

Blogging feels awkward these days. Not blogging feels a bit like abandoning an old friend. In this season of life it doesn't feel necessary to jot down every cute quip (and that's only partially because they don't say nearly as many cute things). The kiddos (even that is strange - can I still call a 12 and 9 year old kiddos?) are more likely to say "don't put that on your blog!" Rory still likes the attention, but Camden is feeling the need for privacy. But they also still love to read my words. Not a week goes by that they don't pull out blog books from previous years and pore over the pictures and words. Rory giggles and retells the stories; Camden quietly takes in the tougher subjects. Here's the truth. I have less to share because life is both busy and unexciting at the same time. I cannot distinguish between what is important to remember and what will be meaningless in 20 years when Camden and Rory are grown with families of thei

Cousins, part 3 (the adult version)

-

So I'm notoriously bad about including adults in the picture when we're all together, and this trip was no exception. Here are the very few that include adults. Becky is always my test subject before the cousin photo shoots. At the baseball game (which was incredibly hot/humid and started nearly an hour late). Kids were pretty wiped out after their naps following the return from camp. (the adult who spent a week at camp might have been tired too) Camden had the camera and took these pictures of me and Becky, Liz, and mom. Lewis/Hale/Derby/Lemons family - you're all caught up!

7/52: Pastel

-
Image
This week's theme was pastel and there's not a whole lot of pastel in our house, much less with my black-eyed, black-haired Korean gal. However, she gave me about 10 minutes of cooperation in 10 degree weather and we attempted a pastel snow picture. The first one is my official pastel picture, but I included the other attempts because it was pretty darn fun. This is a new face I'm seeing often these days. By the way, she has 3 shirts underneath this dress, a pair of pajama pants and a pair of hot pink sweat pants. LOL
