Learning About Colors

James came home from school...
James: "Daddy, guess what? Red and yellow make green."
Jesse: "No, blue and yellow make green."
After going back and forth a few times,
Jesse says: "Think what you want but blue and yellow make green."
...
...
...Cut to the evening...
(flush)...James comes out of the bathroom...
James: "Daddy, you were right! My yellow pee and the blue potty made green!"
Jesse: "See, I told you."

Thank you Vanish Drop-Ins for helping our son learn his colors! :o)

Pooh-isms

James and I were taking a walk and it was really windy...so I told him (in the words of Pooh): "It's Winds-Day". He thought it was funny and we kept going. As we walked the weather just kept changing (as anyone in Portland can attest to in the last week). After a few more minutes, the sun decided to come out, so James said with a smile...

"Mommy, it's Sun-Day!"

3 months...

I can't believe it...they are growing like weeds!!!

Big Mouth

So, for Jesse's birthday, I took James and a few of his friends to Amazin' Glazin' in the Sellwood area. We talked about it being a secret for Daddy's birthday, and painted a candy bowl for him. As soon as we got home...

James goes to his dad and says: "We painted a bowl for your birthday, Daddy."

**insert angry face here** }:o[

Health Nut

Apparently, we are doing something right with James.

We went to the market the other day to stock up on groceries. As we proceeded through the cereal aisle, he said: "Can I have some Kix? They are good for me." And throughout the rest of the time, as we walked he would ask: "What is that? Is that junk food or healthy food?"

We are so proud.

The Darndest Things

Kids are sweet. And they do the darndest things....and learn the darndest things...but where oh where do they learn these things...

Like the other day, I was sitting in my recliner feeding Ronnie, when James says "Mommy look"... I look up and James is looking over his shoulder with a big smile on his face...MOONING ME!!! What a sweet little angel!

The Everett Boys

Our little chunk is 2 1/2 months old & over 14 pounds! James is such a proud big brother...but he still thinks it's funny when Ronnie cries...
