Kid Comedy - Sports Edition

The other day Megaman asked to watch a movie. I asked what he wanted to watch and he said, "Football!!" I found a college football game and turned it on. He was thrilled. As I was walking towards the stairs, I heard him yelling, "Sack 'em, Sack 'em!!!!"
We are big BSU fans at our house and anytime Megaman sees anything football related he shouts, "Go Bronco State!"

Honey Bunch was quite the soccer diva. She is very competitive and aggressive. During one of her games she was kicking the ball toward the goal. A little boy on the opposing team elbowed her and gained possession of the ball. She ran back up to him and elbowed him back and then got in his face and shouted, (using her real name) "My name is HONEY BUNCH." It was like she was saying, listen buddy remember my name because I am going to own you the next 45 mins! I don't condone this behavior but still found it pretty hilarious!

Mud Room

Doctor is brilliant and amazing! He has been planning to put shelves in our mudroom since we moved in but has been so busy it only became a reality last week. He started on Thursday and finished painting them today. ISN'T IT AWESOME?!?! I'm the lucky lady that gets to enjoy all his greatness. :)

Princess is 7!!!

Princess turned 7 on Sunday. Part of me is amazed that she is that old and part of me is amazed that she isn't older. She is super mature and so brilliant that I have to remind myself sometimes that she is only 7. She is very particular about things so I was crazy stressed about her party. She was so detail obsessed that she wouldn't let me do the invitations. She made each one (12 of them) by hand and catered each one for the person she was inviting. They were pretty awesome. We had a slumber party (in the middle of the afternoon) and all of the girls wore p.j.'s. The hit of the party was playing "telephone." Who'd a thought. You can't tell from this picture, but the girls were laughing hysterically almost the entire game and kept asking to play it.
After the party we went to dinner at Burger King, birthday girl request, and then Dairy Queen for dessert and then home to open presents. Thanks to everyone!!! I love this picture because she is so excited opening a $2 book light. What a girl!! We love you Princess!

OUCH!

One of the major perks of being married to a Doctor is knowing that if anyone needs stitches you won't need to go to the E.R. When you have four crazy kids, that knowledge is reassuring. I never imagined in my wildest dreams, though, that the first time Doctor would use his suturing skills on a family member it would be ME! This morning when I went to get my spoonful of sugar for my cheerios, the sugar container spontaneously combusted on me slicing my finger in the process.

Bless Doctor's heart, he came home and stitched me right up. Megaman was enthralled in the process. Six stitches later, my finger now looks like this.
Aren't you jealous?!?!

Happy Birthday Doctor!

Doctor's birthday was last Sunday. After conference we celebrated with birthday brownies (with lots of frosting), birthday hugs,

and birthday tickles!

When Doctor opened the Indiana Jones movies, Megaman grabbed them and said, "That's mine, actually." Happy Birthday Doctor!

Random Act of Kindness

Megaman is the recipient of a new "Cars" scooter. I hope that whomever sent it reads this blog so that we can say THANK YOU!!!! Since I don't know who sent it, I don't know if you are aware that he LOVES the movie cars and is kind of obsessed with it. He is thrilled beyond words. What a sweet and thoughtful thing to do. Now, come forward and identify yourself!

Lets go to the Stampede!

I love the town we live in! Every year they have a mother-son stampede full of fun activities for moms and sons to do together. I had a great time with you Dude, thanks for going with me!
We went to the archery station first.

Then on to steer roping. Yee Haw!

Next was the obstacle course.

Then some yummy hotdogs.

Next were the s'mores. Poor Dude is allergic to marshmallows but he kindly roasted one for me. Thanks, Bud!
