The funny things 5-year-olds say

September 2012.

Oh the funny things that 5-year-olds say.  Here are some funny things that Justin has said in the last little while.


--------------
Justin at the dinner table: "I don't like peaches."
Mom: "I know.  I didn't give you very many so you just have to taste one."
Justin: "I'll start eating peaches when you start acting like a grown up."
Mom: "Oh, ya."
Justin: "That means I'll never eat peaches."

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!  Loved his reasoning!


--------------
Mom: "Justin, you haven't been listening very good the last couple of days.  How come?"
Justin: "My heart feels bad."
Mom: "It does?"
Justin: "When my heart feels bad I make bad decisions."
Mom: "Well, lets say a little prayer that your heart will feel good so you can make good decisions."
Justin: "No, that would take 2 days to work.  If I just change my heart to good then I can make good decisions after one day."
Mom: "Oh."
Justin: "Yeah. So I will start listening to you tomorrow."

HAHA what a crack up!



-------------
Justin: "Fisher, you can't go deer hunting with dad."
Fisher:  whine and cry
Justin: "You have to be potty trained."

I think he was just rubbing it in that he got to go with Dad all by himself.


------------
Justin: "Mom, Dad, I have a brilliant idea. I know how we can get Hunter to walk without his walker tomorrow."
Dad: "You do?"
Justin: "Let's just say a prayer that Hunter can walk without his walker and Heavenly Father will help him."

What a precious little boy with faith that has no bounderies.  I just love him to pieces.



------------
Justin to the girl cutting his hair: "So if you are a hair cutter, who cuts your hair?"


---------
Justin: "Mom, why can't the kindergarteners play with the graders at recess?"
Mom: "Justin, that is a good question.  I dont know the answer so we better ask Dad."

The graders?  Haha.  I told him he would have to ask Tyler so that Tyler could hear how cute it was when Justin said "the graders"!!




2 little monkeys jumping on the bed

Fisher and Hunter like to jump in Hunter's bed.  This picture looks like Fisher is "instructing" Hunter on how to do it and Hunter looks like he is soaking it all in.
 
Ready, set, jump!
 
Aren't they so stinking cute!!

How Hunter holds his sippy cup

September 1, 2012.
 
This is how Hunter holds his sippy.....
 
Step 1. Get feet up by the sippy and point sippy towards mouth.
 
Step 2. Wiggle feet under arms.
 
Step 3.  Enjoy a sippy full of vanilla (or chocolate or strawberry) milk bent in half. 
 
Sometimes he even gets a toe in his mouth at the same time!!
 
What a character.
 

36 years old!

August 31, 2012.

Tyler is 36 years old!!  Where does the time go?!?

I tried to do something different and fun for Tyler's birthday this year.  I surprised him with a night away to Salt Lake and made arrangements for the boys to sleep at Grandma's and cousin Keegan's.  I was so excited!! 

I picked Tyler up at his work and we went to dinner at Chili's.  He had no idea that I had a SURPRISE up my sleeve.  So when we left I just got on the freeway and told him I had more plans than just dinner.  He was very surprised.  Let's just say that should have been the end of the plan and we should have went and picked up the boys and went home.

We got to our hotel (I am not saying which one) and it was terrible!!  The room stunk so bad of must it was like we were sleeping in a locker room.  Anyway..... it just continued to get worse and worse.  At 3:30 in the morning neither of us had slept a wink so we decided to check out and go home.  We went home and finally got to bed at 5:30 am.  We slept till noon and then went and got the boys. 

I was so disappointed.  I had planned to attend a session and the Salt Lake Temple.  I packed our temple clothes and everything....I was prepared.  But instead we went home and slept.  Most expensive night of sleep, to say the least. 

However, after some phone calls and several talks with the assistant manager I was able to get a 50% refund.  I guess that was ok.  I should have read a few reviews before scheduling a bed-and-breakfast type of place.  Or I will just leave all scheduling up to Tyler from here on out.  No more surprises for him.

The next day we had our parents for a small BBQ and cake and ice cream. It was fun.  I got Tyler some new hunting clothes (all the wrong sizes so he had to take them back).  I think that I am going to tell Tyler that in the future he can just plan on birthdaying himself and that way everyone will be happy!

Here is a picture of Tyler and the boys.  Fisher has his hand in front of his face but this is about the best I could get that night.  The boys like celebrating with their dad.


Happy Birthday Tyler!

Fisher's fishies

August 30, 2012.

Fisher has been so sad about Justin going to school on the school bus that I took him to the Dollar Store and let him pick something out.  He picked out several things but settled on some fish squirters for the bath tub.  I let him play with them in the kitchen sink....for an hour and a half!


Now these little fishies are in the bath tub and he is very protective of them and doesnt like to share them very often.

At least he is happy!

Justin's first year of soccer

August 28, 2012.
 
Justin is playing his first year of little league soccer and he LOVES it.  I am a little bit of a proud momma.  His favorite part is scoring goals (of course)!  He usually scores a couple a game.  He is such a good little dribbler.  One game he got 5 goals and hit the goalpost sidebar 3 times.  He is a determined little guy.
 
 
Every mom has to get a picutre of everyone standing around.  Justin is on the far left.
 
Here Justin is breaking away from the group with the ball.
 
Team cheer.... Go Rhinos!
 
Taking a break.  He always wants to have a powerade zero for every game.
 
Way to go Justin!
