The Things Five Year Olds Say and Do

The other day Avery told me she had a scratch on her cheek and she needed a band-aid. I told her she could go to the bathroom and get one and put it on the scratch...if you have kids you know that Band-aids can cure ANYTHING! Needless to say she came back out looking like this. I couldn't help but crack up and take a picture!


I also wanted to share a few things she has said latley...really it is more for me so I won't forget, but I thought you might get a kick out of her as well!

Jason takes the kids to and from Pre-School everyday so he has quite a bit of time with just them. Avery asks all kinds of questions these days and like I have said before she talks all the time. One afternoon as they are driving home, Avery asked, "Daddy, is Jesus older than Papaw?" Jason told her yes, he was over 2,000 years older than Papaw. So she says, "Oh, like before the Indians." Jason said yes and she responded with, "Okay, so he was alive with Pebbles and Bam Bam."

Then a few night's ago the kids were playing downstairs. Avery was rubbing her knee and Jason asked her what was wrong. She looked at him serious as could be and said, "My knee hurts. I think I have high blood pressure." We have laughed and laughed about that!

There is one thing for sure...when you have a 5 year old in the house you laugh A LOT!!

That's so funny! And my dad used to take me to the baby sitter when I was a kid. I can remember all my silly little conversations I had with him on the way. My mom would wake up early and fix Lindsey's hair, then Lindsey would go back to bed, when . But no one fixed my hair. Hmm....

funny little Avery. I'll add to that Jordan and BJ were talking yesterday about playing soccer and she said her 'Earthly Father' was a soccer star......she also lived in Heaven before coming here to live with Tara so if you have any questions about what Heaven is like she'll fill you in....

Cold Days of February

Image
Even though it's cold outside, we still try to have as much fun as we can!  This particular week in February ended with a ton of fun at Great Wolf Lodge.  Jason and I decided that instead of buying the kids more "things" for Christmas, we would buy them experiences.  We hadn't been to Great Wolf since Lakelyn was one.  Avery and Oaks had been talking about going back, and were always telling Lakelyn how much fun it was.  We made a cute little note and wrapped it in a box to give them Christmas morning.  Needless to say, when they opened it, they were super excited.  Might of been the best response ever to a Christmas gift!  Beautiful snowflakes! Isn't God's beauty AMAZING!  My little Elsa watching Frozen on this snowy day.  This costume has been worn more than any other in this house!  Family challenge of who can do a handstand push up.  I lost, but I will get them next time!  lol!  Morning s...

1|52 Looking ahead, with 2017 just a reflection. My hope for 2018 is to simplify my life. Spend more one on one time with each kiddo, take more walks in the woods, sit and talk more, laugh and enjoy each other to the fullest. Oaks and I took a walk to the river today, just the two of us. It was seriously cold, but it was sweet to have some time with him. Cheers to the new year!

February Fun

At one time, February was my least favorite month.  Now I can honestly say it is one of my favorites.  Basketball is winding down, softball is only once a week and baseball, and soccer have yet to start.  Jason isn't crazy busy and we seem to have more time at home together.  These are the moments I cherish.  Again, wrestling is always a favorite activity!  Daddy got the new basketball goal put up and the kids stayed out way past dark to shoot hoops.  These two were glued to a movie.  Lakelyn was so excited to get a bag of M&M's to put in her "M&M Trophy" as she calls it.  Oakley has been wearing these house shoes every night.  Lakelyn was walking her dog! lol! Hanging out in "mine and my sisters" bedroom at Papa and Granny's.  Mom, Uncle Mike, and Oaks are looking at old pictures.  Avery, Lakelyn and Aunt Kat are playing barbies.  This bedroom will forever hold a special ...
