Random Photos and Stories

Okay, so the kids have said and done some pretty funny things lately and if I don't write them down they will be lost forever.

I don't have a picture for this story but . . . the other night the Schwann's man came and Lonnie bought his ice cream. Later while having a discussion with Becks about ice cream Lonnie asked if it was a "sometimes" food or an "anytime" food. Becks said, "Its an anytime food because it's tasty and yummy and good for our bodies!" Well, he got the tasty and yummy part right!

The following set of pictures shows just how much Liam loves Marvin's cage. He kicks the poor pooch and his blanket out and then proceeds to chew on his bone. Ewww! That totally grosses me out. Beckham likes to get him all worked up by opening the cage door. Apparently Liam likes his privacy while doing disgusting things.


I just like this picture. Don't they look like little angels playing potato heads together?!
These two love to play dollhouse and "boy dollhouse" together. Daddy got them to pose for this one. Nothing like watching cartoons and playing next to each other!
This is Liam's demonstration of how to eat a sandwich. First you open it. Then you poke it and try to get the jam off. Then you wipe anything that doesn't make it into your mouth all over your shirt in case you get hungry later. Bread is simply a convenient way to serve jam.

The other night we decided to let Liam watch Kayla's old sign language video. Well, he wasn't the only one who got excited to see BeeBo the signing bear! Kayla climbed right up next to Liam and was telling him all the important parts of the movie. She used to watch this every night before for bed for over a year. It was really sweet to see her like that with Liam. Beckham was also reliving his past in complete relaxation mode on top of the couch. He's not supposed to be up there but he looked so comfy.

Liam loves the phone. Anytime it rings or he sees someone on the phone he walks around like this saying, "Heh-whoa!"
I'm pretty on top of making sure the kids get their naps but yesterday it just didn't work out. He took a power nap in the car around 11 and then wouldn't take his regular nap at 1. I finally let him out after he played in his bed for an hour. Well, he crashed just as we were about to eat dinner. It was so cute. We let him sleep for about 20 minutes and then tried to wake him. He didn't want to open his eyes until Lonnie mentioned pizza . . . he perked right up!
So, a while back Kayla had to get a tooth pulled. It hurt of course but she was very excited that the tooth fairy would get to visit her. She loved getting her first quarter. Then a few nights later she ran out of her bedroom telling us to wait. When she came back she had a picture of a tooth that she had printed off the computer. She stuck it under her pillow and then looked up expectantly. "Tooth fairy?" she asked hopefully. We all started laughing. I think she knew it was a long shot but you can't blame a girl for trying!
One last thing about Kayla . . . she made it 1 whole year! She has now been seizure free for a year and day. 2 more years to go and maybe she won't need to be on meds anymore!

What cute kids you have!

Elizabeth is about Liam's age and I can't even get her near a jelly sandwich, so I guess it's good that Liam at least eats the jelly!
