A little suprise before seeing Santa





So we had a fun afternoon planned. When the boys got home from school, we were going to head over to the primary Christmas party. I had been doing laundry all day, and needed to change into some clean clothes. I was standing in the hallway-next to the pile of clean clothes-half naked, trying to change. The next thing I hear is Tyson walking in the house, talking to a friend. They both turn the corner and see me there, not quite dressed. ACK!!! I hurried and pulled up my pants, then asked Tyson why he had a friend here. He told his friend about our "plan". I didn't know we had a plan. One time I had told him that we should see if his friend could walk home from school with him instead of riding the bus. I didn't talk to his friend's mom. I didn't even mention it to Tyson that morning. But Tyson and his friend had decided that they were going to follow the "plan". So after calling the other mom, I took his friend to the party. It was pretty crazy, but my boys loved seeing Santa. Everyone went up there willingly, so I was happy to take some cute pictures!

Dayson's thoughts on dating...



Dayson and I went on a date last week, since Tyson and Cash went to the movies with their cousin. We went to dinner (Panda Express), then got ice cream. I thought it was a great date, and it was so fun to spend time with just him. As we were driving home, I asked him if he liked his date. He said no. What?!?! Why not? Mom, we didn't kiss. When you go on dates, you are supposed to kiss. Apparently Scott had told him that you were only supposed to kiss on dates. So he thought he had to have a kiss for it to be a good date. Hopefully I can change that way of thinking before he is old enough to go on dates with anyone besides his mom!

We have a biter.


We have a biter was what the doctor announced when she delivered D-since he tried to bite the nose sucker as they were trying to clean him up. He has grown up a bit, but he's still a biter. This is the face you see as he tries to attack you, biting your cheek, hand, or anything that is close to his mouth.
Since he turned 4 months (wow, that went really fast!) we decided to start cereal. He's doing great with it. After about a week of it, he's finally starting to get the idea down of how to eat it, not just spit it back out.
