Just Thinkin about...swimming?
One of the first posts I put on the blog was about Josh putting his little people in his cup. The other day I discovered them in his yogurt. At first I got mad at him because what a waste of yogurt right? And then I just about died laughing when I looked at them and realized they must have been swimming or something. I just asked Josh and he said "no swimmin, they are thinkin about." I don't know what about, he won't tell me. :)
Discovering Rain can be fun
Josh used to be terrified of the rain, now he loves it. He discovered the wonder of walking around in it and soaking up the water and the wonder of rain. Funny part of this video is I am filming him and then I realize he has run out into the lawn, where Tyson has just seeded it and no one is suppose to walk on it. So that is why it stops short, but I just love watching him shuffle in the rain. I remember my old days when the rain was fun, I miss being a kid sometimes.
Random Photos and a funny video
Kenni and I discovered that if I kept going at the rate I am with children, this is what I would end up with: 7,5,3, and two 1 year olds. Well not really, I would probably just have a 9 year old to add to the mix. But we had all these kids over at our house yesterday and it was fun. I'm looking forward to the future...I think. :)
I love Josh.
And of course Caleb.
And little Eleanore too. We have been unusually social lately, I think it has been really good for the boys, and for me. Eleanore is so cute, I hope she picks one of my boys. Hehe
I don't know what face this is, but it is great.
Tyson had extra receipt paper from calculators that they no longer use, so Josh and Caleb had great fun with unwinding them. Then Caleb was terrified of them, so Josh would chase him around with it, poor little Caleb. That is Jack in the background, just so you know. Like I'm saying, unusually social.
My Dad was so cute and sent presents for us. He got the boys these little finger puppets and they LOVE them. Josh is sporting the hat for Tyson/Chris and showing the finger puppets, so cute, thanks Dad!
Josh loves to sit just like Tyson, it is so funny. They are just like each other, except Josh has my emotional side. He cries all the time, Tyson doesn't do that.

And of course there is Uncle Chanson and his German vidoes that the kids love. Shnappi the crocodile is so cute, I don't blame them.

I Feel Thankful...
Even though I felt grouchy all weekend, I woke up this morning feeling very grateful, so I wanted to share my list.
I'm thankful...
-that Josh hasn't thrown up this morning.
-that so far, Caleb hasn't gotten sick with this flu bug, that would break my heart.
-that I feel much better this morning.
-that by some miracle, Josh didn't get sick until about 3 o'clock on Friday, leaving only a few hours until Tyson came home for the whole weekend so I didn't have to deal with the throwing up by myself.
-that of all the weekends we got the plague, it was Conference weekend so we didn't have to go anywhere.
-that our couch cushions have covers that come off so I could wash them after being so pleasantly puked upon.
-that I'm not pregnant and therefore the throw up smell that still permiates our home doesn't make me too sick.
-that even though Josh has been the most sick, he has the most energy and is still super happy. Almost annoyingly so, but I am still thankful.
-that Tyson was so helpful and sweet and kept pretending that I was actually helping him in some way. He is such a gem of a man.
-that Heavenly Father blessed me with some insane sort of love so when I got puked all over, I didn't get mad or grossed out, I just wanted Josh to feel better.
-that I am a mom.
-that I have a body and almost all the time I am really healthy.
-that Heavenly Father listens to my prayers and loves me.
