Cute/Funny Things My Kids Say & Do - Part 2

*December 2012*
Jorden & Braden: Flipball = Football

Jorden: Brings his box of cars & car rug into the living room where I'm cleaning and wants to play. I told him to take it back to his room. He said "I can't, my room's all jammed up". In other words, he drug out too many toys and didn't pick them up before getting the next thing out. LOL!!!

How to know your son is growing up in Tulsa, OK - A.K.A. ROAD CONSTRUCTION CITY!!
Jorden is playing in his room on his car rug. Most of the cars are placed on one street in both lanes. Aunt Nonna walks into his room and Jorden looks at her then says "It's traffic".

Alexandria's first experience with a seat warmer -
She & her sister went with Daddy to Fuddruckers for burgers before going to the $1 movies. Alex is sitting in the front seat of the van after leaving Fuddruckers. She started wiggling, then lifted one butt cheek up off the seat, then switched & lifted the other butt cheek up. Next she started twisting & turning in the seat. Last she put both hands under her butt & asked her Daddy "Dad, I don't know if I ate something wrong, but my butt is really really hot!". My husband then turned the seat warmer off & started laughing at her. Her face was priceless as she thought something had gone horribly wrong!! She is 13 & 1/2 - never too old for a new experience! LOL!!

New Writing Journey

I have dabbled with blogging off & on for a couple of years. Now I've decided to tackle it "for real". Up until now I've worked 30 hours a week, homeschooled, and did the "normal" family errands. I didn't have time to put everything into words. I wish I had, because it would be great to see how far we've come as a family.

Why the change? Our 5th child will be here in a few days & I will be staying home with my family. I used to love writing. Lately my writing has consisted of "chore lists", grocery lists, and DON'T FORGET to do lists. I am excited to start writing again. I can't wait to write about the goofy things my kids do & say. I am anxious to share the occasional homeschool journey update. I feel the need to share our experiences with our kids who have been diagnosed with learning or behavior "issues". I also enjoy sharing a review of movies, TV shows, toys, etc... from time to time. And I look forward to venturing into writing about leaving a legacy as my Grandmother, Nana, left for me. But those legacy writings won't happen for a while yet.

I look forward to what is yet to come.
