Ringing in the Grass

• I had our house phone in my pocket outside, so that I could hear if my sister called. My nephew Ethan was with us.
• I kept checking to make sure the phone was still with me.
• A big pet peeve I have is how shallow they make women's pockets!
• I went to go inside because it was getting dark, it was time to get the boys ready for bed and Mica had to go number 2.
• We got inside, and I had no phone in my pocket! :(
• I went outside with a flashlight. Isaak went crazy because I was leaving him, so I took him with me. He stayed on the lowest tier, while I searched. Thankful for cell phones, I kept calling the house phone to hear it ring. I could hear it, but couldn't see it! Finally I found it, it was face down in the grass, and by this time it was dark.
• I went back to get Isaak, and noticed he had eaten dirt! His face looked like he had eaten an Oreo.
• What a way to end the night. At least I found the phone! :)

Mica in His Sock Monkey Shirt

Mica and Cousin Ethan

• Cousin Ethan came to visit late this afternoon on into the evening. My niece Kailey went to Home-coming, my sister Angela was her chauffeur, and Ethan stayed with us.
• Mica was so excited that as soon as Ethan came in the door, Mica ran out of his room. I don't think he even took an afternoon nap.
• They went to play in Mica's room right away. Then went outside to play.
• Later they watched Home Alone. This is the only time I could get pictures of them, because they held still. Notice the top picture they are on the couch. Ethan moved onto the floor, and Mica followed. Mica follows Ethan everywhere.

Baby Legs

• Isaak was supporting the Baby Legs - leg warmers today.
• I love that they make these for boys as well as girls.

Sweep

• The broom is what the boys were fighting over today.
• I tried finding our little kid broom, but couldn't find it. It's in one of their closet's; just not sure as to which one.

New Words

• I heard Isaak say a new word this morning, "Baby" it sounds a little more like "Babyzz". He pointed at one of my dolls while saying it. It was so cute!
• He said, "Poop" last night, and pointed to his diaper. He just went. He usually goes potty just about every other morning and once a week in the evening. I'm just glad he knows what going potty is all about. I don't expect him to be a pro yet!

Mica Wants to Go See Payton

• Mica wants to go see his cousin Payton. You want to know why he wants to see him?
• Because we just bought Payton's Christmas/Birthday presents. Mica wants to go to his house, so he can play with them too.
• Kids!!!!!!!

Chatty Mica, Whinny Isaak

• Each son of ours is different when they get tired.
• Mica gets chatty, annoying, air headed and sometimes naughty.
• Isaak gets whinny (has distinct slanted eyebrows), needy and walks like he's drunk.
• Last night and tonight, both boys were all of these things.
• One positive thing, both boys love telling each other "Good Night", "Nigh Nigh" in Isaak's case. They love tucking each other in when they get a chance. They even give each other kisses. Too cute.
