I am a 30 something stay at home mom, by title only. I am always taking somebody somewhere! Between soccer, scouts, football, piano, activity days, a primary calling, the never ending laundry, homework, visiting teaching, family home evenings, institute class, and an occasional lunch out with my husband my life is crazy. My goal is to raise happy, healthy kids, who have strong testimonies of our Savior Jesus Christ. If I get a hot meal on the table at dinner time a few nights a week I consider it a miracle!
**Mom, do you think old people are just cute as a button?
**These snow pants make my panties shrink
**My pinky toe smells weird. In fact, my whole foot smells weird!
**Mom, when I turn 18, will I be an old cripple?
**She was wrestling with Colton and I heard her yell "bring it on, butterball"
**At lunch in Leavenworth, we were talking about the small portions. A few minutes later Kennedy says, "this is a small lunch, indeed!"
**We were at the grocery store and she was riding in the cart. Whitley was trying to get in with her and she was freaking out. Landon asked her why Whit couldn't get in with her and she said "because I have space issues!"
**I told Kennedy to roll up her sleeves so that she didn't get them in her food. She said, "No because then I'll look like an Irish leprechaun"
**"Dad, you don't respect my cultures!" "What does that mean?" "It means you don't respect me as your boss!"
**Kennedy just told me that if she had medium brown skin and a black mole on her upper lip, she'd be the most beautiful girl in the world!
**She was trying to tickle my feet, and I kept moving them and she said "just take it like a man-I want to year you laugh"
**We were driving home from gymnastics, and talking about Whitley's upcomgin meet, and out of nowhere Kennedy yells from the back seat "Hey mom, can babies crush bananas?"
**She was helping Colton pull his boots off, and they wouldn't come off. She was leaning back and pulling as hard as she could and she yelled "I'll never give up on you, buddy"
**At breakfast this morning, after taking a big swig of milk, Kennedy declared "milk is my passion"
**She came to me in the middle of the night, sort of whimpering, and said "mom, I'm almost crying".
**Today she called Whitley a desperate peanut thrower!
The kids have been wanting to see Walle since it came out. A girl at Landon's work had told him about this place in Ephrata (Mayberry) where the theaters have tables, and you can order pizza and eat during the movie. We thought the kids would have fun watching Walle this way, so we've been waiting until we had the time to do it. Well tonight we finally had time. It was this tiny little theater with only three movies playing. The theater that was showing Walle, didn't have tables, but we could still order and eat pizza in there. We were sort of bummed since the whole reason was to eat at the tables while we watched the movie, but we ordered pizza anyway. These pictures don't do the theater it's justice. The guy that was running the ticket counter, also came in and started the movie. It was a one man operation!
There is (was?) a theater like that in Salt Lake. but, uh, kids weren't allowed. I doubt they showed Disney movies. It's called Brewvies. John and I went once. I think we did get pizza. It was fun.
You really are in a whole new world, aren't you? I can't get over how much your kids are growing. Incredible. Thanks for your comment on my post, so sorry about Landon's mom. It's really hard, isn't it?
My sis and I were just talking about all the blessings that are coming as a result though. Funny how that works.
