Joe-joe bear!

Here's a post I started clear back on Joe-Joe's birthday (which, btw, was way back in April!). I didn't realize I'd never finished it! So, here (just a little late) is Joe-Joe's birthday post: (AGH! I'm such a bad mom!!!)



My little Joe Joe bear is 3!! I can't believe it! He's getting so big! His birthday was yesterday. We had lots of fun with family. Steve took cupcakes with him to nursery (Steve is the nursery leader with Joe-Joe.) Joe-Joe was so excited. When ever you ask Joe how old he is, he'll usually say six. Occasionally it was seven. but usually he's six. (We're working on three!) Here are some of my favorite pics from Joe-Joe in no particular order!

We go to the Summerfest Parade in Orem every year- this was from last years parade (2008) He's saluting the soldiers walking by.

This one was just a few months ago- we were at Arctic Circle with Flee and Lizzy when they were visiting from AZ. Oh how much we miss them!! But we're glad that they are where they're supposed to be! (I just wish here was where they were supposed to be but ALAS! It's not to be!)

So I don't know what it is about my kids, but they LOVE drawers! This was a few apartments ago. Hee hee! Silly kid!

Again, from the summerfest last year. It was very hot!

I don't really remember where this was taken, but it's just a classic Joe-Joe face. This is what Joe looks like when he's thinking.

Ok, these are a couple of my FAVORITE pics of Joe-Joe. We went to a BYU basketball game. He was probably 18 months or 2 years old at this point. He was trying so hard to see by himself!! Unfortunately, my children never really had a chance at being tall. With me and Steve as their 'rents, they're doomed to be vertically challenged.

Doesn't he just have the cutest cheesey face!! Really, they both are just so dang cute!!!

So yeah. Thats my darling Joe-Joe bear. Happy 3rd birthday (just a little bit late) Joe Joe bear!! Mommy LOVES you! :)

funny honesty of children . . .

So, sometimes the things kids say are just . . . . hmmm. Well, they kinda tend to leave you without words. The other day Jenni was telling us about our neighbors - she was trying to make sure we knew who she was talking about and she said "He's big like mom, only he's wider." Yeah. That made me feel real good. So then we were at the store a little later and I was looking at eye drops. On the other side of the aisle was the weight management stuff, and Jenni picked up this box with a really skinny woman in a bikini. She brought it to me and said "Mommy, you should buy this stuff! Then you could look like Felicia!"

. . . . . . . .


Yeah. Sometimes they just kinda leave you speechless. :)

Funny Joe-joe

So last night Joe-joe said the funniest thing!! He was watching one of his Noggin shows and I changed it to the Biggest Loser and Joe got upset. He got mad at me, and said "Uhhg! Mom you are so frustrated!" Steve thought it was so funny, he said to Joe- "Joe, are you sure mom is frustrated? Are you sure its not you that are frustrated?" Joe joe said "NO! Mom is frustrated!"

Hee hee! Silly boy! Things are good here! We've been having issues with our computer, so haven't been able to post a whole lot lately. Also, I've recently become addicted to the show NCIS. I had only seen it a few times until about a week and a half ago, and now I can't get enough of it! Seriously! DiNozzo is rather attractive! :)

Anyway, thats pretty much it. I'm going to be designing a background for a friend's music blog. I'm excited about that! but yeah. Thats pretty much it! :)

later all!
