Two Eyes

Ashton and Daddy ended the evening by playing a bit of Mario Cart and when Andrew got to the Donkey Kong or something like that, Ashton let Daddy know what he needed to do in this particular spot. Now, each player has their own screen, so Andrew replied, "How did you know I was at Donkey Kong, you should be watching your own screen." Ashton says, "Dad, I have two eyes."

Instant Yoga Butt

Ashton has a great sense of humor, thank goodness, as he is the child who I lose my patience with the most. I hate to admit it, but I was dancing around the living room singing and shaking my "booty" in a new pair of jeans that are a bit tight in the behiney. I left the tag on, knowing that I would most likely be returning them when Ashton says, "Mom, why are you shaking your booty with tags hanging from your jeans?" I let him know that I was going to return the jeans because they were too tight in the behiney when he laughed and said, "Mom, they are not too tight, you have an instant yoga butt!" There was a commercial a while back for Old Navy yoga pants that advertised they would give you an instant yoga butt and being a 6 year old boy, Ashton thought this was the greatest commercial EVER made!

Thank goodness after 3 kiddos, I still have a yoga butt in the eyes of my little guy. :)

ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER...

Ever since the twins entered our lives, I knew that Drewby was going to be a handfull. He was not like the other two, he was a screamer with a mind of his own that was overpowering. He knew what he wanted and he wanted it yesterday. He has grown into this ADORABLE, sweet, snuggly little boy, but he continues to have a mind of his own. I am proud of him for not being afraid to be different sometimes and this past week was one of those moments that reminded me of just how much our little guy does indeed have a mind of his own.

I found an adorable craft making bunnies out of socks and so the kiddos and I sat down with all our materials and got to work. Drew was bouncing his partially made bunny all over the table and floor until it turned to a blob and then decided he did not want a cute little bunny, he wanted a rat. Yes, a rat. I proceeded to work on the cute bunnies and Ashton helped Drew turn his sock into a rat instead of a bunny. We now have 3 new additions to the family. Two bunnies, one named Jackie the Jack Rabbit and one named Tinkerbell Cinderella and a rat named Rat-a-Tat-Tat.

I love the differences between our children and have a good laugh each day because of our little boy who is not like the others. :)
