Pumpkin Patch

Friday morning was gorgeous outside so my mom and I took the kiddies to the pumpkin patch. For a few weeks now Andrea has been walking around saying "Bippity, Boppity, Boo! Where's the pumpkin mama?" When we told Andrea that we were going to get her a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch, she was thrilled. She lifted her eyebrows up in an exagerrated way like she always does when she wants the dramatic effect and said, "I AM SO ESITED! I AM REALLY ESITED MAMA!"

Charlie and the Piano

Charlie is pulling up now so his new found friend is the piano. Enjoy Amadeus Charlie's first movement of his masterpiece. He even amuses himself its so good.

MIDTERMS ! ! !

Please pray for us as John is conquering midterm week/weekend! We are drained. I know that we really have nothing to complain about but I was just lamenting for a second and if you are praying for us if you would just ask for some perserverance for our family and wisdom for John. Love you all and sorry we've been out of the loop for awhile.

Boshears Air Show

We got to go to Boshears Air Show today with my mom. Annie ran around with "all the kids" as she kept calling James, Mark, Martin, Sebastion, and Lucy. We ran into the Dooley and Krementz families. Annie decided that Lucy was her new best friend so we had to stick with her. The kids climbed in all the planes and tried to navigate out of the Daniel Field Airport. Luckily no one took flight. Then John met up with us and we saw the men parachute from the planes, the angels soar past each other, nine planes spiral around each other, and this super fast green and blue jet speed by us every couple of seconds. Annie's favorite part was the "RED HELICOPTER" that was giving rides and took off and landed every five minutes or so. It was good to get out of the house since I've been without a van for a few days and more importantly it was the first day my children did not have runny noses anymore! Woohoo!

The Computer Crash!

I tripped over the computer cord so we have been without a computer for a couple weeks, but it is working now. It only cost $50 to fix. (Oh and three nights on the phone with Philip and his computer guru friends. Thanks guys!) We're back now and will be blogging like crazy to try and keep you updated on all the crazy stunts our darlins are trying out.

Patience

With our little two year walking around we are constantly singing our "Patience Song".

"Have Patience
Have Patience
Don't Be in Such a hurry
If you get impatient you only start to worry
Remember, remember you must be patient too
If you learn to wait for others, they will wait for

I paused for Annie to sing and she screams ME :) !!!

We are learning patience with our little girl but a priest reminded me recently that they only need you for a little while and soon they will be teenagers. "Oh!" I remembered that I would rather be loved by over attention and neediness from my daughter right now than forgotten by her. Oh our little Annie, how we love her.

Playhouse Disney

Handy Manny

Tigger and Pooh

Rocket

Little Einsteins

Mickey Mouse

Playhouse Disney was in town this weekend. My mom ended up getting the day off today so I asked her if she'd want to take the kids, knowing how much Annie would love all the characters, especially "Little Einsteins".





Even Charlie loved it! We were in the front row center on the balcony so they were perfect seats for Charlie to watch all the characters.
