Sammy-isms

I've had lots of quality time with my boys this week, and Sammy has had me rolling with laughter over some of the phrases he's said. To name a few...

#1 - We had a huge snowstorm outside and I said, "Wow, that is quite a blizzard!" Sammy replies, "Is the iguana coming too?" He mistook "blizzard" and "lizard." Haha

#2 - We were talking about how Dustin and I are married, and he got very caught up into who and when he would be getting married. First, he asked if he could marry me. I told him that I would be unavailable since I'm already married to his daddy. Then, he wondered if his two babysitters would be available. I told them that they are too old for him. Finally he said, "well, when I get married we will live with you and daddy in our house." I'm sure his future wife would love that arrangement. 😉

#3 - Lately he's been *very* into taking the couch cushions off the couch and constructing towers. He will jump from one cushion to the next and "poing" himself. It's a great way for a five year old to get some energy out when temperatures are well below zero. Last night I asked him to start cleaning up his mess so we could eat dinner. His response: "I just can't right now, my hands are too tired." Right - they weren't tired a minute ago when you were using them to climb up the tower you just built. 😂

Sammy is very social and is excited to return to our normal routine when school resumes, but I've sure enjoyed this time at home with him! It's been like a second winter break...no complaints from this mommy.

Jackson Nicholas is TWO!

Jackson Nicholas is officially TWO years old today!  He's been so fun lately, and definitely showing off his two-ness. 😉 He's got a LOT to say.  He loves his big brother and wants to do anything and everything that he does.  He loves his family and talks about them all day long. He loves Mickey Mouse and can't wait for his next trip to the castle.  He loves to play outside! We'll be living in the backyard this summer.  He loves to EAT! This has been his biggest area of growth from this time last year. At his first birthday party, he was just able to eat single-ingredient foods due to his allergies - we just didn't know what was safe for him. Yesterday he was able to have a cupcake..with frosting!  Such a win!  We love him and his silly little personality. We can't wait to celebrate him today!

Sammy is SEVEN!

  Sammy is SEVEN! Seven years ago we were at the hospital, excited and nervous to meet our Samuel John.  Sammy was always a happy baby and toddler, and that's continued into childhood. He is so affable, friendly, and confident! He loves his family, he loves to play and he loves to be active. Games are his favorite, and he loves to "snuggle."  Since returning back to school, he's developed a huge love of reading! As a first grade teacher this WARMS my heart. He loves most books, but right now he favors graphic novels. He is the best big brother. Without us asking, he is so willing to help his brother. Just yesterday, Jack sneezed and Sammy ran to get him a wipe and then proceeded to wipe Jack's nose for him. If someone gets hurt he often hurries to see what's wrong and if he can help. He's a lot like Dustin in that he loves to have fun and be social. He's a lot like me in that he loves to make lists and know the when/how things are happening. He loves a...

Friday Favorites [10-4-2024]

Happy, HAPPY Friday!  I hate to even say it outloud, but Jack slept through the night two nights in a row this week. He's been getting so many teeth - all at the same time for about three weeks. This led to lots of broken nights of sleep for our boy. It is AMAZING how much better I feel getting a full night of sleep. Haha.  Needless to say, I'm feeling extra perky this Friday.  I'm linking up with Andrea  and  Erika  to share a few favorites from my week. 😊 Sammy's flag football team is the Chiefs, and so obviously his favorite dog supporter needed to get a matching outfit. Look at Sammy's red cheeks! We're ready for fall weather to arrive in full force over here. Haha.  This week was National Night Out in our town, and Dustin helped work it. I stopped by with the boys, and Jack was genuinely surprised to see so many people who looked like his daddy. He got so excited when he saw the first police car, but was disappointed his daddy wasn't inside. 😉 D...
