Another E comment

E had another "when I grow up" saying after feeding his lone gold fish named spiderman.

"When I grow up I'm going to have LOTS of fish and you can come see them if you want to."

I love this boy, and it's going to be fun to watch him grow up! :)

E has said two more things lately about what he is going to be like when he grows up.

He told Matt the other day
"when I grow up I'm going to be NICE to my kids."
This was obviously when he didn't think Matt was being nice.

And
"When I grow up my kids will get ice cream from the ice cream truck ALL the time!"
This was right after the ice cream truck disappeared around the corner as we were catching the kids so they couldn't run after it.

I don't know if anyone else will find these as funny as we do, but I want to make sure that there is a documentation of all the things he says about being a grownup so when he is one, we can show it to him. :)

Beach Bum

I know it's been a long time since we posted and I'm sure you all want pictures and I promise they will come. I take them but getting them on here just seems like so much work. BUT even without pictures I had to post a conversation I had with E yesturday.

So to preface this E and A have been talking a lot about what they are going to do when they grow up. They even argue whether or not they will let them visit at their houses. They talk about who they want to marry and a lot about where they want to live.

E: "Mom would you be sad if I lived far away from you when I grow up?"
Me: "Why would you want to live far away from me?" (he has been talking about having a house right behind me lately)
E: "So my kids can play at the beach all the time."
Me: "oh, OK."
E: "Ya, I'm going to live by Grammy, in California."

Matt and I both LOVE the beach (it's our happy place!) but I don't know how I raised a beach bum in UTAH! :)

S near her 7 month birthday

I feel bad as I think of all of the cute kid moments that I have missed with the videocamera. Seeing them grow up so fast makes me think that I should have the videocamera glued to my hand at all times. So, this afternoon after church as We were making dinner I grabbed the camera to catch S chewing on some bell pepper sticks ( S is cutting her 2nd tooth, front bottom, so she likes to have a cold whatever on her gums). Oh and by the way, poor S got bit by a mosquito a few times on the forehead yesterday during the BBQ and fireworks. Also at the end is one of my favorite clips of E when he is about 18 months-He's so cute!
