My kids have been so funny this week I just have to write it down. Since I haven't written in my journal for SOOO long this is where I will write it.
Taylor- we were walking back to our van after dropping off the boys at school. "Mommy will you turn off the cold please!"
Jesse- Laying on my bed. " Momma, did the cleaning lady make the bed today?" I had actually made it today!
Chase - He was getting in trouble for not getting dressed for school. I spanked him NOT HARD! He started to cry. I felt bad so I was giving him a hug. He tells me "Jesus is mad at you for hurting me." Boy did I feel bad!
This isn't so much what Taylor said as what she did. She was watching spongebob squarepants and spongebob ripped his pants and was bending over showing it to everyone. Then Taylor pulls her pants down (including underpants) and bends over and tells me she ripped her pants! I had to not laugh, but explain that, that wasn't the best thing to be doing.

Not ready to be a Sunbeam!
Oh if you could have been at our church today you would think that all we do is have kids:) There were 11 new sunbeams today:) The twins are moving out of the nursery into a sunbeam class today. I have been telling them all week about it. They even went to a primary activity on Sat to meet their new teacher. At the end of Sacrament meeting I started to tell them that we were going to a different class. They both seemed fine with it. After the closing prayer when I started to walk them to their new teacher Taylor started to pout. I don't want to go she kept saying. I ignored her she hasn't cared that I left her for YEARS (she sometimes gets mad when I come home from a date to early). They have 2 classes so it is 5 and 6. These are the active kids they may have more other days. My kids poor teacher had to screamers one was Taylor and and the other was another little girl. There was only 2 girls out of the 11. No boys cried. I sat with Taylor for a minute, but I had to leave to teach my Sunday school class. The teacher was holding the other screaming girl so I had to find someone to hold Taylor. Rob was subbing for another class so he couldn't help. I left and was almost to class when Jesse was behind me. I picked him up and he told me that he didn't want to go to class. No crying just telling me how it was. No one had noticed that he had left. There was so much chaos he quietly slipped out. I took him back and he stayed with no crying. Later Rob told me that it took Taylor awhile to stop crying, but she just sat there with her lip pouting the whole time! When we got home Taylor told me that she missed her mommy and that is why she was crying:) We will see if next week goes better. Those poor teachers!

Taylor got almost everything Princess. She is a TOTAL girl. When we asked her what she wanted she said princess toys:) Yeah I am glad that I have a girly girl!
Zack had bad luck this Christmas with his presents. We got him an electric drum set and it wouldn't work. He wanted Kid Pix game and his cd drive on his computer didn't work. Lastly I got him Tag from leap frog and there were so many people on the site that morning downloading the books that it didn't work. Thank goodness I was smart and he got balloons for Christmas so he played with those. Finally by 3pm they made a new website for Tag and Rob was able to download the books. He hasn't put them down hardly!Jess loves cars the Movie so he got MORE of them!

Chase finally got his white train he had been asking for! He picked it out first. I think if that was his only present he would have been happy with that.

Christmas
The kids opening up their stockings. This year we had to wake up the 3 younger kids at 8am. Zack had been up for about 45 minutes and couldn't stand it any longer. It took me 2 times to wake up Chase and Jesse. When I told Chase that Santa had come he forced his eyes open and got straight up. He was so happy to finally have Santa come.

A Surprise Visitor
On Sunday night my brother called me. His son Jeremy was at the Greyhound station in Denver. He was on his way to Salt Lake City, but his bus was late getting in. He had a 6 hr layover to wait for the next bus. So I went and got him. It was so great to see him. The kids loved it as well. Zack especially. He followed Jeremy around the WHOLE time! He would not leave his side. Zack talks about Jeremy all the time even though we haven't seen him in over 2 years. Taylor took right to him. She jumped into his arms right at the front door. So it was a great surprise to have Jeremy with us for a few hours. We hope he has another layover on his way back :)
Notice the number 8 in Zack's hand. He has liked that number for so many years! Im not sure why. So at the begging of the school year when 2008 was on the board he wanted the number. His teacher told him he had to wait until Christmas break. When his teacher was taking down the board he asked if he could have it. He has been carrying it around for a week now!
