Happy 8th Anniversary!!!!

Out Of The Mouths Of Babes

My children are very open and honest. They hold nothing back and they speak their minds. They are my reality check if you will. If I ever get cocky or start to develop a big ego, they are there to reign me back in. Here are a few of the comments said to me recently that are really enduring terms to remind me how much they love me.

A few weeks ago the family was getting all loaded in the car to go to a friends house. Jackson and Jocelyn were in the very back and I climbed in between the two captain chairs Kelsey and Bryce occupy to attend to Bryce. Jackson says to me, "Mom, are you skinny or fat?" I was taken a little off guard by the comment but before I could answer, he obviously came to his own conclusion and said "Yeah your fat". I thanked my son for his observation and then climbed into the front seat where my husband sat shaking, trying to contain his laughter. He was just laughing because he wasn't the one being judged. You just wait! By the way, this was day before I had to wear a swim suit for the first time after having a baby 3 months previous. It was just the vote of confidence I needed.:P

Today I went to Target to get a few things and I decided to try on a skirt. I had to haul the whole clan into the family dressing room with me. Jackson and Jocelyn were occupied with something so I quickly pulled the skirt on and checked out the view in the mirror. Kelsey took one look at what I had on and said "Why you have that Grandma skirt on?" Great, she already thinks I dress old fashion!

From Target we left to go to a friends house. As we were driving the kids asked where we were. I told them we were driving to Winter's house. Apparently my children don't normally trust my ability to get to a location without getting lost because Jocelyn responds with "You are not even using the GPS. I can't believe this".

Tonight was my personal favorite from the day. Jackson was in the tub with Bryce and Jackson said, "Mom, why is Bryce all fat right there?" I thought he was pointing to his thigh and said "His thigh?" He responded with"No" and pointed again. I caught on and said "Jackson that's his scrotum and you have one too". Jackson replied with" Well his is a lot bigger than mine". I guess the comparison has begun.

These kids are definitely my comic relief!!!

Fat Happy Baby

I haven't blogged in forever but I thought I would post a little video until I can get to writing a real post. This is proof that Bryce is eating well and living up to his nick name "Bubba Chunk".
