The Investigator - Part II

James looked under his pillow this morning when he got up, and by magic...

James (6): "Mommy, it's money! Awesome!!!"

...it turned into four quarters and one dollar coin. :o)

The Investigator

James (6): "You know how my tooth fell out a while ago? Do you know where it is?"
Daddy: "I think so. Why?"
James: "I've been hearing things about putting it under my pillow and it changes. I gotta check this out."
Mommy: "Hmm... what does it turn into?"
James: "Well... I heard it can turn into a lollipop, candy, a dollar bill, or a toy."

So, the tooth went under the pillow tonight. We'll see what happens in the morning... :o)

Growing Up

I was looking at James and realized just how tall he has gotten and how grown up he is.

Mommy: "James, you are getting so big. Stop growing!"
James (6): "I can't help it. It's just part of nature."

Haydee's 1st haircut

...more of a trim actually.

We normally wait until about a year to cut their hair, but Haydee's is always hanging down in her eyes, so we decided to trim it up a little. We cut her bangs, and took a little off the sides and back. Here's the result.

Wheel of Fortune - air date changed to March 11th

Hey all! I got a call from one of the Wheel contestant crew letting me know my air date has been changed to Thursday, March 11th. So, Yay!... one day less of anxiety for all of you. ;op

Praying for Auntie Anna

Daddy went upstairs to pray with the boys and tuck them in.

Daddy: "Ok, Ronnie. It's time to pray."
Ronnie: "...and for Auntie Anna."
Daddy: "No, I'm praying for you right now."
Ronnie: "I p'ay for Auntie Anna."
Daddy prays for Ronnie.

Ronnie (getting agitated): "I p'ay for Auntie Anna!"
Daddy (realizing Ronnie won't go to sleep until he gets what he wants): "Ok, go ahead."
Ronnie: "...(mumbles)...Auntie Anna...(sounds)...(mumbles)...Auntie Anna...(more sounds)... Amen."

The real reason to become a doctor...

I took Haydee to the doctor today because she has had a little wheeze. James came with me so he could help keep her entertained and happy. On the way home, James had a thoughtful expression, so I asked him what he was thinking about.

James (6 yrs): "I think maybe someday I could be a doctor."
Mommy (kinda excited at the prospect): "That would be nice. You could help people be healthy."
James: "...and I could have a magnet thing so I can open the drawers."

So, there you have it... the real reason people become doctors. :o)
