TA and EQ

Sunday, August 19, 2007

When you are anticipating becoming a parent, you don't hink of some of the things you find yourself saying. Here are some of our favorites:

S. to TA (4yo): You have coffee breath! (He had been drinking a 'spot' of coffee after dinner - decaf of course)
C. to TA (almost 2yo): What are your glasses doing in in your soup? (He signed 'all done' - not sure if it was the for the soup or glasses...)
to both: Don't sit on your sister/brother/the dog.
C. to EQ (2): Get out of the pantry! (the pantry is a closet type. She walked in and closed the door behind her!)
C. to EQ (2): Sorry sweetie, girls can't stand up to go peepee in the potty.

More to come, I'm certain!

I realized there haven't been many photos lately, so here are some from random days/events. Enjoy!!!

On a side note, we too the kids shoe shopping last night. TA got size 11 1/2, EQ 7 1/2. In March TA was in a 9 and EQ in a 6. I wonder who is feeding them miracle grow! We have been getting busy for fall. TA is promoting to the 4 year old class at school and church. Both kids are going to be in Awana this year. TA will be a Cubbie again and EQ will be a Puggle. TA learned so much about Jesus and the bible last year. They start with scripture memory and his memory is amazing!

I am also trying to find a Chinese class for him. And he wants to take gymnastics (aka 'nastics). He walked up to me tonight, balanced one arm on the chair, grabbed his foot and lifted his leg straight up, saying, "Watch me Mommy!" Once upon a time I could do that too...many years and pounds ago!

We have finally found a church . Our sunday school class is great!!! The teacher uses greek to really get to the real meaning of the scripture. I dig that! The kids are enjoying their classes as well. We didn't intend on going to a Baptist church, but God obviously had other plans!!!

Well - it's late and past our bedtime. EQ is sitting on my lap, night owl that she is. Guess I better tuck both of us in. Sleep tight!

TA: I'm getting big.
C: Oh? How do you know?
TA: I'm getting hair like Daddy on my body. (and then he told us where Daddy has hair...won't write that. Use your imagination!)

I thought boys weren't obsessed with body hair until they hit puberty!!!!!
