A very busy Tooth Fairy

For some reason getting his picture taken showing his missing teeth was upsetting to him. He's so cute, even when he looks upset.

Big sister showed him how to do it!

Alyssa and Brendyn are getting to the age where they are losing their teeth. Which is one thing I don't handle very well. It just grosses me out. Then I have to act like it doesn't bother me so they won't freak out too. Anyway, they are so proud and they wanted me to show you all their empty spaces in the their mouths. So enjoy.

Alyssa lost her last tooth when we spent the afternoon at the mall and had lunch. She was eating her taco and it just fell out. She is such a trooper. Losing teeth doesn't bother her a bit.

The one Brendyn just lost was only loose for a couple of days. He can't handle it being loose so he just messes with it until it comes out. We were at a Birthday party Saturday when he wouldn't stop messing with it. He kept walking around saying " almost got it". The when he finally pulled it out he said "YES! I got it!" He was so excited he went around to everyone in Burger King showing them he had lost a tooth. It was so funny.

Super Bowl Party

So we decided to have a few friends over for the super bowl. We had Kelly, Isaiah, Sophia, Jennifer, Bryan, Andrew, Stacy, Naiona, Duran, and Little Anthony come over. We enjoyed food, the game and just getting to hang out with each other. The kids had a really good time running around the house screaming and playing star wars. James made his favorite spicy chili and I made nachos, fruit plate, chocolate chip cookies, popcorn and then the others brought snacks too. There was plenty to eat!

We decided to cheer for the Saints team. Why... because they had never been to the super bowl before(James reason). I picked them because I liked their colors better than the other team. Anyway, I only got to watch a little bit due to the fact we were in the kitchen or dealing with the kids. I let James have football games to himself because I know its a guy thing and he can't miss a minute. I'm ok with that the girls and I enjoy talking more anyway so it all works out for everyone. I hope the team that won was the team you were going for. If it wasn't then to bad better next time.

He is such a good friend

Our little man

This came from Joshua last night when getting ready for bed. (He sometimes needs to wear a pull up at night) As we were in the bathroom putting the pull up on he said "mommy last night Jesus helped me not to potty in the bed. He is such a good friend. I hope he helps me tonight". I thought that was so smart of him to think of Jesus as a friend and realize that he can help him at such a young age. Even with the small things like not wetting the bed. Sometimes as adults we have trouble remembering that. Good thing we have kids around to help us remember. Joshua has been asking a lot of questions lately about God and wondering about everything.

The other day we went to go look at new cars and the one we ended up liking was blue. Joshua's favorite color. When we were leaving he was upset and didn't understand why we couldn't take the car right then. James said "well we have to go home and pray about it. Why don't you pray to Jesus and let me know what he tells you." I knew where this was going. Joshua got quiet for a minute and then said "he said yes! Jesus said we could have the car." James and I laughed and said we needed to wait and see what he told us. Joshua then said "ok he's going to say yes". He was very sure that we were going to get the same answer. Well I'm sorry to say that we didn't get the same answer and that we will all have to wait to hear "yes".

Play time

Well today we had a snow day. So we decided to spend it just chilling around the house. By the afternoon the 3 little ones where ready to go play in the snow. After getting them dressed they headed out to play. Here are some pictures of their playtime.

This is Brendyn undoing what daddy had just done. He was working so hard and singing at the same time. He was so proud of what he did. He was smiling the entire time. It was cute. The kids eating snow. I can't stop Joshua from doing this. He even will try this at the store in the parking lot! It is so gross. So this time when it started to snow we put a bowl on the deck to catch the snow. Now Joshua has his own big bowl of clean snow to eat.
