Some T3 Funnies

Before November all but disappears on us and I have nothing blogged...again, here are a couple of cute things from the baby boy (who is almost 4 - YIKES!!!)

The Captain went into our bedroom this morning during the morning chaos of getting ready for school. I personally think he goes in there to hide LOL. Anyway, T3 wanted him (because daddy has promised to get him batteries for the past 3 days). So he's knocking on the door and daddy is not answering. So he knocks more persistanly and starts yelling "Dave, it's Kate". I just thought this was the funniest thing.

On the way home from dropping the kids off at school we passed a house on our street. T3 asks when can he go to that house and I told him we don't know those people so we weren't going to the house. He then replies, "No,that's OK, I'll just go there and I'll ask them their names". The logic is so simple to him.

One other question (because I have not really paid attention). When do kids stop telling you they have to go to the bathroom and just go and do it? LP was just in here crying and dancing "I go pee, I go pee!!" I am thinking to myself, well go to the bathroom LOL. DOn't get me wrong, I am so thankful she tells me and that she actually held it until we got to the bathroom, but I always laugh when they get so worked up and run around for 5 extra minutes telling you instead of going to the potty. My kids will do this in the middle of the night, too. Get up and wake me to tell me they have to go to the bathroom. Being the ever compassionate mom that I am, I just tell them, "OK, go ahead" and off they go! (I do get up to help #s 4 & 5).

just some stuff

wow - I totally missed the month of October. I find it hard to keep this up sometimes because things that I find totally funny or share-worthy, probably isn't of interest to most people. Or I just don't have the time to sit and blog at the moment and then the moment is gone.

Anyway, October.

THe Sox won the series!!!

T1 got Student of the Month for the first month of school and we went to the award assembly. His teach simply loves him :0). And I worried about him going to school LOL!

First anniversary of Gram's death. The day itself was weird. I am glad I am behind in my scrapping because I didn't get to the tribute page I had for her until back in September. THe kids' daily devotion reading for 10/27 was about a Gramma who was sick and then died. I had a very hard time getting through that one.

Halloween was a fun day. We'll be eating candy until 4th of July.

T2 can read!!! The kid amazes me and he is just loving Kindergarten. He is a lot like his big sister. T3 is a lot like T1. I see LP being very similar to BP & T2. Kind of interesting to watch it all play out.

Yard is almost done. The Captain bruised a nerve in a take down of a patient at work on 10/30. He has been out on comp for the past two weeks. It's actually been really nice to have all of this time with him. I am so totally in love with this man. How did I get so blessed?

I am getting my hair cut on Tuesday. Nothing drastic, just some long layers. My hair hasn't been this long in quite a while. I have been pretty consistant with my treadmilling. Now I am back to tracking food and giving my sheets to my mom each week. We'll see if that helps me. My goal is to drop 10 by New Year. If I succeed, I'll make a new goal at that time.

Oh, I bought the material I needed for the girls' Christmas dresses. It was $1/yard at W-M. I only needed 3 yards (it was 60" material). I am so psyched (oooh, having a high school flashback) that I spent about $10 total for two Christmas dresses!! They will be green satin-y material with black velvet ribbon trim.

That's all for now.
