I discovered that somehow we managed to not capture our lives on film between Reese's birthday and late October in 2007. How did that happen? No idea. Though maybe it was the three kids three and under that did it. So if anyone has any electronic pics they can send us for those "lost" months, please, please send them our way...
...Dave decided to get Danny Boys pizza tonight BEFORE he read my post about having this 7 years ago tonight. God is speaking :)...
...I'm waiting for the cake I baked for Brie to come out of the oven - smells good, looks good, hope it tastes good...
...I confirmed (despite my wildest hopes and prayers for the opposite) that I am definitely, extremely lactose intolerant. My body is still trying to recover from the inadvertant onslaught of ice cream without lactaid pill. Ugh...
...we are still running the renovate-your-rentals marathon. I'm sure Dave has logged more than 26.1 miles with the roller brush...
...Reese is eager to try sounding out words, spelling out words and brushing up on his phone skills by calling the numbers he knows. Repeatedly. He called Dave about 8 times in one day when Dave was in Boston a few weeks ago...
...Luke and Reese are ensconced in an ongoing game of superheros. Today Reese was Batman and Luke was Robin. They also favor Spiderman, Ironman and Flash. They are convinced Dave is "Hot Boy." We have no idea who "Hot Boy" is, although if there was a superhero by that name, Dave would definitely fit the profile. They've taken to playing this game in the garage and were delighted to find a box of blank mailing labels that quickly became transformed into shakles for being in prison and they also possess superhero powers. Apparantly...
...Brie has become a busy bee in helping around the house. I instituted a chore chart complete with the "wages" they can earn for each job and she's already earned $11 since we started this a couple of weeks ago. Today, she also had the sweet idea of picking the beans from our garden, shelling them and then wants to plant them and give them to the poor...
...Ben continues to be his "look like Luke, act like Reese" self. He enjoys getting a laugh out of us at his antics, climbing the stairs, mimicing the sounds the kids (and especially Reese) make. I can't remember the last time he crawled since discovering the joy of walking on two feet...
...I wish we had read "Bringing Up Boys" by James Dobson before we had them.
