Almost 3

My little E will soon be 3!  I'm having a hard time with this, because I'm pretty sure he was just an eensy little baby a couple days ago....

In the meantime, however, he is growing and getting smarter by the minute.  Lets go through some E-speak:

"I don't member" - when asked a question
"Mom, you cute."
"In the garjub?"  (garbage)
"Knock knock, mom"  who's there? "eyeball in the car" .... I know - hilarious.
"Knock knock, mom"  who's therr?  "well....don't member."
"knock knock, mom"  who's there?....okay I'll spare you.
Are you a big boy, E? - "Almost"
"I not mister...I E.M.R."
 
I can't even begin to tell you how great he speaks, the vocabulary he has, nor how capable he is!

Some of his greatness:  Officially potty trained (a few months ago to be honest); can count (with fault) to 20 ish; likes to sing Wonderpets theme song (if you don't know it, spare yourself); absolutely LOVES to dance, and has pretty stinkin good rythm at that; can't get enough of his cars and trains and blocks; He is a monkey in general.

I know I am missing stuff, but it's not that important.  He is fantastic (despite throwing fits), loving (despite picking on small animals), and snuggly (despite only holding still for 3 minutes).  I absolutely ADORE him (despite that he won't stay little!).

Such a big little boy! And even if he does tend to recycle jokes, there is no denying he has a great sense of humor!

Caught Bare Bottomed.

Yesterday I went to retrieve my kids from playing in the backyard with the neighbors....When I round the corner I behold my 5 year old daughter with her shorts baring her bottom to the 6 year old neighbor boy. Me:  M!  E!  It is time to go home. now! M:  E did it too! (while sheepishly pulling her shorts back up and E snaps his head around to look at me with big eyes and "O" mouth) WHY?

Chicken Adventure Begins

Our first step towards the 'homestead' lifestyle: CHICKENS.  J and I have been researching, reading books & articles, and saving a TON of info to our Pinterest board.  I know we are in for some surprises and troubles, but we are doing our best to head them off and avoid other peoples mistakes. (J is still trying to convince me that we need to start pigs this year.  I keep reminding him that is one of the PRIMARY mistakes other homesteaders have made: being too eager and getting in too deep, too fast). So, we start our garden and chickens this year - keeping our fingers crossed that we aren't putting them in poor locations.  The chickens are the first thing branching out into our additional 2 acres.  The coop and kennel are going at the outside, back corner of our fenced in yard.  Our coop is valiantly being made from old cabinets we picked up at the local Habitat for Humanity, Re-Store.  We intend to paint, add roof, prop up on legs, and insert s...

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.
