Family Pictures

Well Sunday we went and got pictures done.
I still have some editing to do but the ones I got back edited turned out so cute.
It was a chore to try and get Reese to behave, she's so much better
left to do her own thing and just snapping pictures of her
unlike Kielee, who poses as soon as she sees the camera,
Reese turns into a monster if you ask her to sit still.
We went to Wheeler Farm, and i just have to tell
anyone who is trying to think of a place to take pictures,
this place is great, there are SO MANY backdrops and fun places
we could have spent a lot more time if it weren't for the pesky sun,
I think we'll be hitting it up in the evening sometime soon again.
Kimberly was a pleasure to work with, she did a really good job being patient with
the HUGE family and so many kids. Thanks so much Kim!
Check out her blog if you like what you see! She's a lot of fun.

The Kids said What? Edition 3

Brought to you by Cammie at house of no sleep

I have only have one this week but Wowee it's a good one!
From Austin, while watching Men In Black II

The scene: during a fight scene with J & K after the bad lady releases all the prisoners from MIB headquarters they were fighting all these aliens.
J kicks one of them for lack of a better phrase "in the nuts"
and a sound rings out like metal being kicked, and K says
"J, he's a ball-chinian, kick him in the chin!"
J pulls down the alien's mask he's wearing around his face to reveal...

And Austin pipes up
"If that guy was me my chin would be like down to here huh!"
and holds his hand about 1 1/2 feet below his own chin...

I couldn't contain myself, I had no idea the kid was so, I don't know well endowed???
But he had no idea why I was laughing so hard I was crying, so I still am not sure where that came from. But it was GREAT!

The kids said what? Edition 2

Brought to you by Cammie Go check her out!

Kielee:
Kieiee hurts herself at her summer kids camp almost daily. They give me these accident reports when I go to pick her up. The other day I went to pick her up and they geve me 2 accident reports. One said she was walking along and she rolled her ankle, so she had to ice it, and one saying she ran into the bathroom door with her face, and had to ice her nose. As we were leaving I said "Kielee, what is it aboutyou getting hurt all the time. You really need to pay attention to what's going on around you. Silly girl" and her response
"Duh mom, it's not my fault, I get it from you. You're a Clutz-o too!"
hmmm, ok I stand corrected. The inability to function on your own 2 feet must be genitically inherited.

Reese:
Reese likes to follow everyone into the bathroom right now. And we don't usually lock doors around my house...so when Hubby was taking a wizz the other day, Reese snuck in. Obviously he can't stop mid stream, so he turned his back to her and told her to leave...this was their conversation.
Hubby: Reese, daddy's going potty, you need to go out
Reese: You go pee daddy
Hubby: Yeah Reese, you need to go out of the bathroom
Reese: You sit down daddy?
Hubby: No Reese boys stand up, girls sit down. please go out.
Reese: (while stalking her way closer to him so she can see in the toilet, I know gross...)
Daddy!!! You Make Bubble PEE!!!! I want to do Bubble PEE!!!
Hubby: (laughing) Reese! You can't come in when boys are going potty! Try going pee in the potty, that's how you make bubble pee!

Lex:

Lex: Jaime, when is my mom comng to get us
Me: later today, about 7
Lex: today? Is that the next day?
Me: No Lex Today, just not right now
Lex: Is that THIS day?
Me: yes, today is THIS day.
Lex: Oh yeah Duh, I know what today is.

The Kids said What?

Brought to you by Cammie, at House of No Sleep!

Welcome to my first edition of "The Kids Said What!"
since this is first addition, and I've only got one good one from this past week
and I've been looking forward to playing this game cause it seems I always get
tons and tons of great words of wisdom form my 4 little ones...until now. (Go over to visit Cammie, it seems that this is actually a trend for week 1....I swear kids just KNOW this stuff!)
I'm going to do what Cammie did, and do a little recap of recent funny things they've said to start things off...
Without further ado

We're going into a restraunt and Reese is throwing one of her daily tantrums because she wants to bring her cup, blanket and toy into the restaurant. I being the wonderful parent that I am decide to reason with her (bribe her) and tell her that she needs to leave them in the car because when she goes in she can have a root beer and she won't be able to hold it with all that stuff...SUCCESS! Yay!! Then we go into the restaurant, waitress comes over and asks if she can get us a drink, and Sweet looking little Reese pipes up with
" I NEED A BEER"
Blush! OMG! She means root beer I assure the waitress.
Somehow since then though, everything she drinks that is not in a sippy cup, has become her BEER. Couldn't I have just offered her a chocolate milk!

Before buying cheese balls was in my weekly shopping list ( I know bad bad bad) We had them leftover from a BBQ. Got home from work with Reese and this was the conversation
Reese: "mom, I want Ball cheese"
me:"!!WHAT did you just say!!"
Reese: "ball cheese, I want ball cheese"
Me: standing there wide mouthed pondering what she could possibly mean buy ball cheese Blech!......Oh Lightbulb on! DUH "Cheese Ball Reese? You want Cheese balls?
Reese: "Yeah mom! Ball Cheese!"

Kielee, After too much TV apperently!
"Mom, You really need a magic lash! It makes your eyelashes SOOOOO Long and curly and yours are SHORT!"

While I'm Mopping the floor (on my hands and knees, I hate mops)
Kielee: "mom is that mopping"
Me: "yes Kielee"
Kielee: "no it's not mopping is with a mop!"
me: "Kielee if you already know these things...why do you ask me?"

Well there's what I have for now. Hopefully my kids cooperate more and give me more to go with next week!
