Little Helper

Reese hurt her foot an JJ was comforting her. He brought her her lamb and baby. Then he went to get her a tissue and proceeded to wipe her nose until she stopped crying. 

"Let Me See"

We were on our way up to grandma and grandpa Abbott's house for a family photo shoot so I was doing my makeup in the car. JJ was watching me through the mirror. After I was done JJ said," let me see mom."  I turned around and he got this cute little smile on his face and said, "you're pretty."  What a sweetheart. 

I want to be....

On the way to Buffalo Wild Wings JJ spotted a man in a chicken suit holding a sign. He was asking all sorts of questions about him. He then wanted to go and hug the man. We said no. Later in the restaurant he asked me, "mom, what's that thing that you dress up?"  I replied that it was Halloween. He said, " yeah, I want to be a chicken holding a sign for Halloween."  Too funny.

That is unacceptable.

Today JJ and Reese joined me at school for our walk a thon. They wore their Byron center t-shirts and were a hit!  JJ ran with me and Reese ran with her new friends. She introduced me to "all her new friends" after she ran her 12 laps!!!!  As they left the school Reese told Jim, "that's where mommy spilled her coffee down the window (of the car), that's unacceptable!"  Yes Reese it is. :-)

I'm so proud...

Tonight while putting JJ to bed he told me, "I so proud of you mom."  When I asked him why he responded, "cause you the bestest girl ever."  I love that boy and his sweet heart. 

We finally have ARTWORK!!!

After getting JJ from his class we went to check out Reese's cubby to see if she had any paper to bring home. At that same time her teacher came in and told us that she made something and went to go get it. It was a fish bowl with goldfish crackers on it. When I saw the 3 goldfish crackers I was thrilled that she had finally completed a craft and did not eat it. When I made this known to her teacher, she replied that in fact there were way more goldfish and that she did eat quite a few. She pointed out the glue spots left on the paper. Oh well, at least she had some left. Once I picked her up from recess she ran to me and said, "I made that for you mom.  I love you, and I miss you all day.  Look, (holding up the paper), I made that for you mom!"  She was so proud. 

What's Wrong Baby?

Tonight at dinner JJ was sitting across from Reese and he started to whine and almost crying(for the third time tonight). I had been talking to him about it all night when finally Reese says from across the table, "what's wrong little baby?"  JJ replied, "I'm not a baby!"  He almost got upset until he saw me laughing historically at Reese's comment. We all began to laugh and the only tears that were seen after that were mine (from laughter).
