Peace

Lately our days have been filled with me working to get everything I HAVE to get done before this baby comes, which includes crazy things like painting walls, not baby room walls just walls. Decorating shelves, cleaning out whatever I fill the need to etc. Or me so exhausted and my body aching that I am to tired to play with my existing fantabulous children, dumb I know that is the brain of a psychotic crazy women. Anyway, this weekend, well it was different! It was a fantastic weekend! We began the weekend with a little fire and pitching of the tent in the backyard. Camping in your own backyard is AWESOME! We had low stress with 3 young kids and when your back yard looks like an abandoned forest you feel as if you are truly in the woods away from the stress of home. I being 9 months pregnant got to sleep in my own bed while the kids and the hubs slept outside. KB's comment to me in the morning was. . .

I woke up like 3 times and counted stars I counted 30 stars can we camp out again tonight!

Next we went to Soccer games and although the kids played at the same time, different fields, again! I had the bonus of having Swifty home today which meant both kids were watched throughout their whole game. The real BONUS of the morning was Both kids carried the ball down the field and scored goals!!!!!!!!!

GO THUNDER!

GO LIGHTNING!

(okay please ignore how high the kiddos shorts are appearantly we got the riding shorts)

We came home to a lovely afternoon of Conference kids playing joyfully together in the tent (I may never take it down) , riding bikes, and eating A LOT of candy. You know if you choose to sit reverently and watch conference you choose to be able to eat lots of candy! I know bribing with candy=no good. However, my kids asking when it is conference weekend for 3 weeks before hand and actually sitting without fighting, and asking questions or at least repeating some of the words they here from our leaders= totally worth the candy bribe. Well until Sunday night and we have had 2 days worth of candy!

Sunday we spent the day enjoying our family, watching conference, and picnicking. Ahhh, it is weekends like this that make me wonder why do I get so caught up in the getting things done. It is definitely the less enjoyable life!

Philosophical phrases from the Bee's

After our power came back on KB very excitedly yelled "we have lightricity"

KB's favorite new phrases are... "are you thinking what I'm thinking", and "I don't have an idea about that". She is also really into people coming over on her designated time. All the way home from church she cried because she wanted a friend to come over (problem I didn't have enough dinner to share). I said well maybe we can call and see if they can come over tomorrow. KB's response "but I wont want them to play theeeeeeeen!" Oh what do ya do?

Out of the blue KB says "mom, say I one the arm" I hate to admit it took me longer than it should have to realize we were playing the "I 8 the arm" game. Anyway as we were playing, I told KB "I 2 the alligator", she cracked up and said I didn't achoo the alligator I coughed the alligator.

Yesterday I was sitting down, and unprompted, KB walked up to me and, pointing to my left eye said, "Daddy, that is your good eye." I replied, "Oh really?" She continued, indicating my right eye, "and that is your bad eye." She then spit in my "bad" eye and said, "Now I am getting your bad eye wet." I told her that if she spit on me again, I would have to look at her with my bad eye, and needless to say, a few seconds later, I was looking at her with the bad eye.

About a week ago, KB went to the bathroom and was talking to Swifty while she was going. This is what she said, "Dropping a load makes your tummy feel better, that is why I still have the coughs". I wasn't quite able to follow the logic behind her statement.

Keeping in mind KB was just told she could not watch a movie because it was Sunday, she said to me, "Mom sometimes it's not Sunday!"

Buster's New Tricks

Talks like Crazy, his favorite phrase is "No MAMA", he likes it so much he tries it out in different voices.

More new tricks... Buster can now bark like a dog (although it sounds more like Tim Allen's grunting on Home Improvement), bop his lips like a fish, growl like a tiger, say dayers, in reference to his big sis., he runs, and loves to tease us. He also says dace for me to dance with him. He must have things a certain way and until he talks better we are not quite sure what that way is. Hopefully we will know soon.
