push your wee wee down sister

Brooklyne has decided she is a big girl and is potty training herself.  ha ha ha ha  Tanner likes to lend a hand with his little sister and even tries to instruct her on what she needs to do.  On one of these incidences he kept telling her to push her wee wee down.  Then he looked a little closer and became very confused and concerned.

He hasn't mentioned pushing her wee wee down since then.

No mom you are wrong!

Conversation with Tanner today in the car moments after he was singing the song Born in the U.S.A. :

T: mom you said I was born in Mississippi.

Me:  Yup.
T: I not born in Mississippi.  I am born in the U.S.A.

Then he starts belting out the song again and bobbing his head up and down as he jammed out to his nearly recognizable tune.

our KING

Trent took part in the 2nd grade program a couple weeks ago.  He had been working hard on his parts and trying hard to put his nerves out of him thoughts.

Trent had his own solo, he sung the song "I'm Going to be King" from the Lion King sound track.  I was so proud of him and surprised at how well he belted it out.  His roars are what had me laughing really hard though, the first time he came out and roared, I was not expecting it at all.  I nearly fell off my seat in shock.

This was also the first time I have ever done any REAL face painting.  I think I did a pretty darn good job if you ask me, ha ha ha ha.  I also went and helped in his classroom with the kids, and the teacher was so happy to have me around to lend a hand and help things go smoothly.  We had a great day and Trent enjoyed every part of it. 

Here is the video we took of him preforming.  Seriously, you have got to check it out, it makes me laugh each time I have seen it.

UNPREDICTABLE here in the SOUTH

The weather here in the south is the last thing from being predictable.  This past week we have been experiencing warm humid weather.  Wednesday and Thursday were around 75 degrees outside and a bit sticky.  By Saturday, it has cooled off a bit.  We had a 9 a.m. soccer game for Kolby, and we just wore sweaters or sweat shirts.  It was probably around 60 degrees, but still warm because of the humidity.  

Well, this morning we woke up to SNOW!  It does not snow here very often, they say about once in every 6-7 years we get snow.  Well this is 2 years in a row for us, and we have lived here for 5 years.  The forecast said we "might" get snow, but I was not thinking it would happen at all.  Well, I was wrong!  ha ha ha, when does that ever happen?!?!?  

The kids had so much fun playing in the snow.  They made snow angels and had a snow ball fight.  David and Cooper who live on our street wondered over and joined in on the snow ball fight.  

Now it is nearly noon, and there is no snow left!  Good thing we let the kids head out right after eating this morning.  By Wednesday, it is suppose to be sunny and 67 degrees, the Thursday it is suppose to be 75 degrees again!  Who knows, maybe we will get snow next Sunday too! HA HA HA HA HA.

Trent and Tanner wanted to make snow angels.

SNOWBALL FIGHT!!!

Cooper's big snowball!

Brooklyne getting in on the snowball fighting action.  She would get 

frustrated  though because the snow kept sticking to her mittens.

"This snow tastes good!"

Tanner had a lot of fun in the snow, even though he hates the cold.
