Can we say snow?

Yeah, it was a huge snow day! When we went to bed last night, the first few snowflakes were coming down. D was constantly looking out the window. He was like a big kid! Then when we woke up, the world was blanketed with snow! Woohoo!

The kids were so excited and kept looking out the window. We have an awesome neighbor who helps with the snow on our driveway and sidewalk. He's crazy but we love him! He's still getting over the flu yet he still helps us out. What a sweetie! As a thank you, I made white chocolate chip cookies that we could bring over to him.

Then with the second round, the boys were dying to get out. So I bundled them up in their snowpants and gear, and sent them out to WORK! They got a shovel and a broom and attacked the snow. hehehe Okay, so they didn't really get much accomplished, but they had fun "helping" Daddy.

Then they made the attempt to go the backyard to play in the snow. Holy cow! The snow went up to T's upper thighs. That's a whole lotta snow! I forgot to send Daddy out with the yardstick. We will have to try that tomorrow!

Poor homeless construction workers...

Well, we were in the car listening to the soundtrack of the Lion King (of course, L's favorite!) and when the song Can You Feel the Love Tonight? was on, T asks "What is a vagabond?" You know the line, "It's enough to make kings and vagabonds believe the very best." Well, I think for a bit and begin my explanation of what a vagabond is. I talk about how vagabonds wander from place to place and do not have a home.

L chimes in with "Like construction workers" in a very knowing voice. Huh??? L adds that construction workers builds things, houses, buildings, etc. But they do not have a home. So I ask where do the construction workers sleep. L says they don't. LOL Poor construction workers..........

Happy Birthday, Baby Boy!

So 4 years ago today, L joined our family! I cannot believe L is already 4 years old! Wow, boy does time fly!

Guess who called?

According to L it was "a zebra from the YMCA."

Ummm..... try again, it was giraffe (Geoffrey) from Toys R Us wishing L a happy birthday!

How to tell the difference between bugs

Overheard..... T explaining to L

She's a firefly. Her butt lights up.

LOL

Marry me!!!

The boys are playing. L with his femisapien (the female version of the robosapien - sorry it was on sale, sue me!) and T with Transformer Bumblebee. I couldn't tell what T was screeching at first, esp since L is running away from T, laughing hysterically. Turns out T is chasing L, begging, pleading with L to marry him and to let T aka Bumblebee kiss L aka femisapien. Crazy kids!

Stinker!

The night before, D was going to the storage unit to bring some more stuff over and decided to bring the boys to give me a little reprieve. On the car ride over, T and L were bickering, as usual. T was being bossy, as usual.

Finally D had enough and says, "L, if T is being stubborn and acting like a stinker, ignore him!"

After a few seconds, L answers: He is a stinker!
