Today when I got home from work, Colby and Natalie both ran out of the back door past me with 'capes' (blankets) tied around their necks. Two of the cutest super heroes I've ever seen!

Sunday night, our church had a gathering at Fazoli's (seriously, we have an awesome church, lol) and Meredith got mad at my mom. I asked her why and she said, "Because she's crazy."

Saturday, I shaved our cat.

The office that Ryan and I work out of moved locations last week. I packed over 300 files. It was awful.

On June 25th, exactly half way between Christmases, Natalie started singing Jingle Bells with no evidence of prompting from anyone. Weird.

That's all I got.

One of my very favorite Meredith quotes (that she says almost daily):

"Mom, this is the best. day. ever."

This morning, Colby has been exercising. Hr bench pressed a chair (one that goes with the kids' little table). He came into the bedroom and asked Ryan if his muscles were getting stronger. Ryan felt of them and said he thought they were. Colby said he needed to get strong so he could destroy the house down, but he wasn't allowed and the brick would hurt his hands. And a few minutes ago Ryan went into the living room and said something to Meredith about playing on his phone, and Colby told Ryan he was exercising. Lol, I love my super hero boy!!

Today's Natalie quote (a few minutes after I came home), "I had a poot. And dad changed it. I have a diaper.". At least I know she's being changed, lol!

Also, something I find unusual, Nat was eating her father's salad. She looked at me and said, "This is yummy, Mommy!". Weirdo.

Ryan's birthday was Wednesday. Last weekend our truck went kaput so we had to get a new one. Since we got it on his birthday, I didn't have to get him another present!





Also, on the way home from Colby's baseball game, we saw a spectacular rainbow. All I kept thinking was, "Good work, God."

Tonight, like so many nights, the kids are in bed and Colby and Natalie are already asleep, but Meredith is still causing problems, lol. I put her in bed and retreat to my room when I hear a loud whisper, "Mom! Mom!!"Like a sucker, I go to her if only to keep her from waking up the others. While usually her requests are petty ones ("Mom I need water," "Dad, what is that noise?" "Mom, how long do I have to rest?"), tonight was a little different.

Me: "What is it, Meredith?"
M: "I need to give you a kiss and hug and nosey (Eskimo kiss)."
How can you say no to that?
We kiss, hug, and gives nosies.
M: "I love you, Mom."
Me: "I love you, too, Meredith."
Ugh, bleeding hearts unite, lol!! Ah, I love that girl <3

Caution, explicit.

My conversation with Colby:
C: "You remember that one time I had a butt crack?"
Me: "Colby, you still have a butt crack."
C: "How long have I had a butt crack?"
Me: "You've always had one."
C: "I know. But I have one on the inside of my bottom and I think two on the outside. So I think I have three."
Me: "Colby, you only have one butt crack."
C: "Girls have butt cracks, too."
Me: *sigh*

Somehow this all started after I took a splinter out of Natalie's thumb. I'm not sure how we got from point A to point B, but whatever.
