hair

So Daniel has part of his hair in the back that will NOT lay down. It has been like that since he turned one. He is OBSESSED with hair, and loves that part of his hair. Not quite as much as he love my hair, but that's another story. Anyways, he calls the part of his hair that sticks up his 'haircut'. Often he'll say to Josh, "Daddy, I like you're haircut", just to get Josh to say that he likes Daniel's hair cut too. Anyways, the other day he was rubbing my hair, and I said, "Daniel, do you like my haircut?". He said, "No mommy, you're haircut too down." Meaning, mine didn't stand up like his and he didn't like that. I just busted up laughing. He said his and daddy's haircuts are 'up' and mine and Lindsay's are 'down'. I don't know where he gets his ideas but he is always making us laugh. Another thing he is doing lately is being a ninja. He'll say hi-ya and kick both legs and then say it again and do the splits. It is so funny. I love my 'Mr. Bud' as we call him.

Funny quotes from the kids:

Lindsay: Mom, my knee-pits are sweating

Anytime something is broken, Daniel says, "Mom, the batteries died!"

Shutterfly Rocks!

My favorite photo cards are definitely from Shutterfly! They have so many cute designs. We used Shutterfly last year for our cards, and we loved them! We got so many compliments about them. They look so professional. They have so many designs it is hard to pick just one. I plan on using them again this year, and I can't wait to choose my design. I love that the paper they use is so thick. They are not flimsy at all. So head over to Shutterfly and get designing! The photo Christmas cards ( http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-photo-cards )are definitely my favorite, but they also have other designs you can use throughout the year.
These birthday invitations would be so much fun! http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/birthday-invitations
And, you know grandparents would love the calendar! They can see cute pictures of their grandkids throughout the year! http://www.shutterfly.com/calendars/wall-calendars
I can't wait to place my order! Enjoy browsing through all of their options!

Lindsay cracks us up

Lindsay is so funny. She is so cute and makes us laugh all the time. Here are a couple quotes.

L:Mom, who was the first mom on the earth?
Me: Eve
L: And who was the second mom? Her daughter?
Me: Um, yeah
L: And the next mom was that girl's daughter?
Me: Yes
L: And the next mom was Grandma?
Me: Not quite, sweetheart


Me: Lindsay, be careful, don't fall
Lindsay: Don't worry mom, I'm an excellent not-faller.

Daniel's newest phrase is NO WAY! He says it anytime things don't go exactly his way.

Yes, we are still alive!

We are still alive! I have just been a slacker on updating this blog. Here are some recent funny quotes from the kids:
L: Why can't my friend Connor go with us to the party?
Josh: Because only certain people are invited.
L: So Connor's not certain?

Daniel: Knock knock
us: who's there
Daniel: Daniel
us: Daniel who?
Daniel: Banana
Daniel and Lindsay: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
(I have no idea why that is so funny, but it cracks them up every time)

I'm grateful for...Daniel Joshua

Daniel is such a fun little boy. I love his expression when he wakes up in the mornings. He is so excited to see his mommy and sister. Daddy is already gone for work, but when Daddy comes home in the afternoon, Daniel's face just lights up. He runs over and gives him a big hug. Daniel loves cars, balls, and of course, following his sister around. He is just full of joy. He also loves exploring and discovering new things. He loves being a big boy. We love having him in our family. February 27, 2008 was a wonderful day and we are grateful for our son!

I'm grateful for...Lindsay Jean
