it appears that brooke got into a fight with something purple and feathery. be on the lookout for a featherless animal.

please pronounce your words right

In the car on the way to school this morning, after 1 cup of coffee, still a little drowsy, but i was defiently woken up.

Ethan is in the back seat talking away about something. I the mommy....yup not really paying attention and pretending i am.

Ethan: "No *ucking thumb at school, no *ucking thumb at home. i am not suppose to *uck my thumb."

Mommy...."WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY ETHAN?!!!!!"

Ethan: "I said i can't suck my thumb at home, school or at all."

Mommy: "Make sure you pronounce those S's a little better there boy, it didn't quite sound like an s."

Ethan: "Oh, sorry. SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"

Yes, Ethan has probably never heard the F word, so i seriously doubt he was saying it. But, maybe we need to work on the S sound a little more.

:o)

little sabotagers

So, we are hiring the first babysitter who isn't family. Kinda exciting and scary. The babysitter came very recommended from a friend who uses her and she is the oldest of 5 children. She was very nice and i am excited about it.

The kids were very excited to meet her. We of coarse talked before the sitter arrived to meet them. We use our best manners. Topics to avoid talking about (as in fart, poop, pee, private parts). To be on their best behavior to impress so the girl would come watch them on sunday.

the door bell rings and the kids are so excited to meet her.

the kids manners must have gotten stuck outside or something because they became these wild kids. These kids who were jumping on my couch and cushions. Being loud. they got whistles and blew them loud in the living room. They just went crazy. Ethan walks over to me and says "Mommy your a jerk!" Wow, was i embaressed. I wanted to act like a jerk to him after he said that, but having company i held my cool and let him know that was not a nice word and then asked him apoloigize to me.

The kids led the babysitter to the play room, and when she got out of there alive, she looked like she had no idea what she was getting herself into. She agreed to come for a few hours sunday while i go to book club. Lets see what happens the next time i call.

Beware of these kids.....they are WILD!

Ethan's Conferance

Ethan's parent teacher conferance was yesterday. He's a genius! That's all i can say. No, he is doing wonderful. Right on track to head to first grade. There doesn't seem to be any concerns that he won't be ready. He is reading at kindergarten level. I think they higher end. So, that is good. Their are areas we need to be working on with him. Math, he is awesome his teacher said. He loves math at school and at home. She said it is nothing for Ethan to just sit down and write the numbers 1-100. We are very proud of him. His behavior has gotten better. I am happy to report, he is doing well!

Grayson has graced the world!

Whew....gotta get this blog all update! Grayson joined the Wolfe family on Feb. 11 2010 around 3:30 in the afternoon. He seems to be a really good baby (at least the two times i have seen him). He is adorable, that is for sure. And seems to have my husband wanting baby number 3! ***eyes are rolling***. Ha ha Alex! Then again, a few weeks ago i wanted number 3. As long as we stay not wanting a 3rd at the same time, we will be fine. So anyway, this handsome guy here is completly adorable. Brooklynn feel inlove with him and also seems to think mommy should give her one. What is with these people, lol. Ethan however, wanted nothing to do with his new cousin and just cared that Uncle Tom knew he still existed. He has however said that once Grayson gets to be as big as Kainan, then he will  hold him! Speaking of Kainan...that handsome guy is 4 months today! They grow up way to fast! So...Karen....hang on to that baby stuff...because Brooke was alex's idea and we know how persuassive he can be, lol.

Do you see the look on his face?! Its that baby fever

Do you see the look on hers too? More baby fever!

Does this look like the face of someone who wants another one?

This is the face who says "NO MORE MOMMY!"

Post 200 and Snow

Wow, its post 200. yikes! I probably would have been here faster, but i have been dealing with personal stuff. We are all here and hanging in. There has been some excitement from Grayson being born and snow in GA! I suppose its about time for an update, huh! Last thursday Feb 11th, Grayson entered the world and man is he adorable. He seems to be a pretty good baby and look forward to being his aunt. Then Friday, it snowed. And it was finally our turn. We had about 5 inches! And since this is GA, by 3:00 pm saturday, just about all the beautiful white stuff was gone and you were left with an ugly mud mess! I will post a better update soon. I am suffering from sinus crap! blah. Hopefully tomorrow i can post about Ethan's conferance today. Enjoy the pics

its starting to snow!

Ethan loved to eat the snow!

Odie loves the snow too

Its COLD MAMA!

YAY! its the next day and there is still snow

Snow Angel time!

Lots of beautiful snow!

Pictures

I have been trying to figure out the camera on my new phone.  Its suppose to be an excellent camera. And i am sure it is, however it is very complicated. So, some of these pictures may be a bit dark. But, i am learning. Hopefully soon i will have the new camera down! So bear with me with any bad pictures. I have found a mode i like on the camera for inside pics and that is putting it on "intelligent". there are several modes. Even one that is a facial makeover when you take a picture. Enjoy the pics.

Brooke making a funny face like usual. She has been a great sport letting me test the camera on her.

Getting ready to go shopping. Outside picture looks really good.

New balloons

Ethan being a silly dude

another one of this handsome dude.

bowling! This is using natural light and putting the camera on intelligant mode. it seems to take the best pics this way

modeling for mommy again

Is it my turn yet mommy?!

almost a strike!

I am gonna get a strike mommy!!!

it took 5 years...but it happend

I knew there were those moms out there who had kids music in their cars for their children to listen too. I knew people who were thankful to have the kids out of the car so they could listen to "their" music on the radio. I never understood. Why should i let my kids have control on the radio when i am the one driving. I listen to country. It isn't bad music. They can just listen to it too!

Two months ago something happend. I found a kids music CD and it had little tea pot on it. So before leaving the house, Brooke asked if she could listen to it in the car. Sure, why not i thought?

Two months later, there are currently 4 kids music CD's in my cd player in the car. I find myself going down the road singing "do you ears hang low, do they wobble to and through, can you tie them in a knot, can you tie them in a bow, do your ears hang low."

Thanks Brooke......i am now that mommy!!! After 5 years....i lost the radio to the kids. Is there a support group for this?
