June 26, 2012 - Grease

Today my favorite moment was when Jaxon asked me, "Why is my skin shiny?"  I have no idea, so I told him, "'Cause you're healthy."  And he said, "Maybe because I'm starting to get grease like daddy."

Kid, you're only 5.  I sure hope you aren't already getting grease.

December 24, 2011 - Jaxon

Today my favorite moment was when Jaxon was saying his morning prayers and he said, "I am thankful Daddy doesn't have to work all day."

Devin works every other Saturday and lately, every Saturday because of wrestling so it was cute that Jaxon was excited he didn't have to work at all that day.

August 8, 2011 - Where Daddy Lives

Today my favorite moment was when we drove past the school Devin teaches at and Henry pointed to it and said, "That's where Daddy lives!"  I corrected him, "No, that's Daddy's work.  Daddy lives at home with us."  "NO!  Daddy lives at his work too!"

It wasn't really my favorite moment, of course, but I want to remember it.  I think it's actually a tad bit sad that Henry thinks Daddy lives somewhere else.  I mean, I know Devin is gone a lot, but even if it's late, he always comes home.  I guess there are days when the kids don't see him at all.  Working 2 jobs and taking classes for a Masters Degree is serious business.

May 18, 2011 - Buddies

Today my favorite moment was when Jaxon came home from preschool and Henry said, "Jaxon, you are a buddy."

Jaxon tried to clarify what Henry meant by asking, "I'm your buddy?"

Henry answered, "Yes, we are buddies."

"And we are brothers" Jaxon added.

Then Henry said, "And Oliver's a buddy too."

Jaxon confirmed with, "Yes, Oliver is our brother and our buddy."

I am so glad these boys have each other as not only brothers, but as buddies too!  Some days I think I will go crazy with the chaos of all 3 of them, but I would never change it.  Hopefully we will only add to it with some little girlies next!



Later I asked Henry who his buddy is and he answered with a smile on his face, "Daddy!"  He is such a daddy's boy!

May 10, 2011 - Mowing

Today I had a couple favorite moments.

My first favorite moment today happened was while I nursed Ollie before putting him to bed for the night.  It was a beautiful day today--perfect temperature of 75ish, slightly breezy, and sunny--so we had our windows open.  Devin was in the back yard mowing the lawn.  Jaxon and Henry love when Daddy plays "lawn mow" (meaning he mows and they run around in the grass) so of course they were out there with him.  I could hear their laughter when he finished with the lawn and started playing with them.  Just sitting there, holding Ollie while listening to my sweet boys play with their wonderful daddy was such a sweet moment where everything in life seemed perfect.

My other favorite moment happened after Devin was done mowing and playing with the boys outside.  They all came in for shower time.  Devin did the ab wheel (the best ab toner in the world) then told the boys, "Time to show Mommy our muscles."  And Jaxon added, "And our naked dance."  They did do both!
