Funny face...

This kiddo never fails to crack me up! He does this all the time, he thinks it is so darn funny to stick his face up against the window. I guess it does make a pretty funny face...

Three Blind Mice...See how they run...



It was nursery rhyme week in school, so I picked a few of my favorites to read all week, and I let McClain scroll through and pick some to read. Before the week started I sat down with the computer and looked up a few craft projects to go with our rhymes. I think this was our favorite. Three Blind Mice finger puppets. He was very proud of his work. Even made a fourth blind mice the following day to show his Dad how to do it. Then of course, asked him, "do you think you can do that"...

Slash Pool...



For some reason it is sooo much more fun to go play in the slash pool in your clothes. The boy have been outside playing on the swing set on a few occasions and they end up getting into the slash pool that was used earlier that day. And no big deal, so what if you go slashing in your clothes, it dosent hurt anything, and cause its not what you would normally do, its fun. Well this afternoon, McClain specifically asked if they could go out and splash in thier clothes. Sure, what the heck, go for it. But the real question is, how did I end up all splashed in my clothes? I wonder...

To sum it all up...

Well I don't quite think I have kept up with a daily blog but I think I have still managed to keep us to speed with whats been going on with the Blackmon Bunch.

Just a few funnies to add to this weeks craziness. The other day, Ashton was playing with a toy which has a button and it makes a little frog snore. So of course I told McClain, "hey McClain, does that sound like your Dad when he is sleeping?" his response was "ahhh, yes, I need ear plugs, cause he always wakes me up". Ahhahahahhaa I love it. I was cracking up. Well of course totally random, but later that night Clint brings McClain (without knowing about the previous conversation) a new pair of ear plugs, just like the ones he uses at work around the helicopter. Ahahahha, I was laughing so hard, it was great.

Lets see, McClain also moved up into a big boy booster seat this week (still a 5 point harness) but he has finally made the size requirements.

Ashton's love for the wii has gone to an all new level, he now, knows all about how it works, I laugh so hard at him, and am in total amazement on how fast little ones catch on to whats going on around them. One of the first things he will do in the morning is find the wii controller and bring it to me, in hopes I will turn a game on for him, and he will continue to do this until I actually turn on the wii. Once it is on he knows all the moves, he knows just when to the controller down to sinc with the game, and he loves bowling the best, you should see him with his mean swing. Crazy kid!

Well I guess those are my only real funnies for the week, I'll be back with more school scoop, we are still waiting on our boxed sets to really get going into it, for now we are still kind of flying by the seat of our pants, having fun with it though...Hopefully me and the boys will also be fitting in a field trip this next week, for a little fun.
