I know I've said it before, and I'll say it again, but I still shocked at some of the things that come out of my four year old's mouth. For instance, while walking to school today, he told me he can walk through the snow because he has boots on and they are protective. Um, where did he learn that at? Then, we walked by a house that we had walked through before (it is for sale). He said, "remember when we walked in that house? It sure is beautiful in there." Wow!
Add to that, my two year can now find his own movies and stuff on Netflix through the Wii. Talk about bittersweet.
Well, at least I try to think of it as controlled. Some days it's just plain chaos. Welcome to my world. I was on the unstoppable path of an education professional and then kids popped into the picture. Now, I am a work at home mom. My world is a bit more than upside down from what it used to be. Join me in my everyday controlled chaos.

Beer anyone?
it's only Tuesday and it's been a rough week already, I will admit that. I must look a little haggard. The boys just opened up the fridge and asked me if I wanted a beer. Um, if my two and four year old are asking me to drink, I'm thinking I might need one.

Nate and being sick
Nate has been sick all weekend. He was up during the night on Thursday coughing and wheezing. By Friday morning, his nose was running full force, but at least the wheeziness had stopped. But, now on Sunday, he has been complaining that his teeth hurt. New molars? Anyways, that's not the funny part. I have a bag of emergency M&Ms in my office and Nate asked if he could have some. I told him not right now. He gets this so serious sad look and said, "but, it will make my teeth feel better." He knows which cards to play early, doesn't he?

Enjoying life and happiness
It's been snowing here again. I know, big surprise for January, eh? Anyways, it's been that big, fluffy, sparkley, pretty snow. As the kids and I were leaving the other day, I watched all three of them, at the exact same time, open up their mouths and stuck out their tongues to catch the snow. It was so cute to see!!
Last night, as Lex was praying (he started this a while ago when he started having nightmares) he started it by saying, "Dear God, thank you for our happiness." He then goes on to thank Him for our food and drinks and asks for all of us to have good dreams. Adorable!
