“Earbrow”

A number of weeks ago while Will was eating, he started to name his body parts.  When he got to his eyebrows, he proudly exclaimed, “These are my earbrows!”  At the time, he was in need of a hair cut, and Jonathan laughingly said Will almost did have “earbrows.”

Another Day

I had to blog about today because it was just another of those days…

This morning, I was scheduled for a 9:30 a.m. ultrasound on my thyroid.  I had a lady from church coming to watch the two youngest boys.  Will had a field trip with his school from 10:00-11:00 a.m.  I knew we would probably be a little late, but I hoped for him to get one game of bowling in.  I took him with me to my ultrasound so that we could go directly to the bowling afterwards.

When we arrived at Advanced Radiology, Will said, “Mommy, I don’t feel well.”  He seemed okay then so we parked the van, got out, and I reached for my script.  It was then I noticed that the doctor had forgotten to sign it, and for once, I had forgotten to check ahead of time.  So, I pulled out my cell phone, called home to get the doctor’s #, and as I was on the phone with the babysitter, watched as Will vomited his breakfast all over the parking lot.  Feeling a little helpless, I tagged a stranger to notify the front desk that the parking lot needed to be cleaned.  To make a long story short, an hour later, I was seen by the ultrasound technician.  Poor Will missed out on his field trip though!

Once home, Will decided to fiddle with the sink and created a leak.  I put a bowl under the sink.  Then when I was getting the older boys together, Luke dumped the bowl of water all over the floor.

Once the boys were asleep, I went back down to mop the floor and went to turn on the water — only to discover Luke had apparently turned on the shower.  The result was water sprayed all over our walls, floors, doors, etc…   Never a dull moment with three busy boys!

Spitting at Ants

Last weekend, Jonathan asked Drew why Drew was spitting on the floor.  Drew said, “I’m spitting at the ants so they go away.”

I’m finally bloggin again!

Sorry, it’s been so long since I blogged, but with all the craziness of preparing to list our house for selling, I have been just a little busy.

An update is Luke has become quite the climber!  He can climb the rock climbing wall all by himself at the swing set.  I also find him sitting on top of the table in the family room often.  I have to keep the chairs away from the table, or he manages to climb on top the table.
