Apple Picking

We Love Apple Picking! We got to go as a family this year! We picked 3 different kinds of apples. Some to eat and some to make Apple Sauce. Considering Buster only likes apple sauce he marched around the house chanting apple sauce apple sauce we make apple sauce.

Look at this boy above. He gnawed that apple all day and now, Hieslt screams if he sees and apple and doesn't get a taste of it

This guy finally managed a taste of a real apple! WooHoo! He didn't eat much more but a taste is progress! Last year he cried and hung on to his bagel, but this year he had his own bag and filled it to the brim. I think he'd do anything to get some of this.....

Here is KB in a tree of course. The first set of apples we picked had little baby trees and climbing them was not an option. I would say these trees were border line but KB and Buster managed to find a few branches big enough for them.

Apple picking

Buster actually tried one, he didn't like it but he tried it!

Apple Picking has become a tradition for us every September. I don't mean just any apple picking we wait for these AMAZING apples called Sun Crisp to be ready and then we pick enough to last us through January! Plus other apples to make Apple Sauce with.

First Day

Today was KB's First day of Preschool! She had a lot of fun, I was worried that the fact that her class has 10 kids in it 8 of them being boys would bother her. At the end of the day she told me that she had a hard sticking together with the other girl in her class because sometimes she just wanted to play with the boys.

Here is KB Saying "Mom you already took a picture"

9 Years!

Considering I'm always late. . . we are now about a week past the nine years and into the "and counting" part. Luv ya BABE!

By the looks of it we really need to take more pictures together!

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.
