The Pledge....

Any of you watch "The Office"???? If you do, you'll appreciate this....
The other day, Brayden started singing the Pledge of Allegiance... to the tune of Old McDonald. He did this because Old McDonald is a fav song to sing for FHE (I don't know why, it just always has been!) So as we were getting ready to sing Old McDonald the other night, Patrick starts to sing the Pledge... the Michael Scott version. Brayden thought this was hilarious, and so started singing it that way too.  So if I get a call from his teacher about how he was singing E-I-E-I-O at the end of the Pledge, I'm gonna let Patrick handle that one!


Oh, and while I'm on the subject of cute and funny things that my kids have done...
This morning as the boys were eating their Lucky Charms, I see them running from one side of the table to the other, handing each other something. I ask what they are doing and tell them to eat breakfast so we can get ready for school, and they so lovingly tell me that they are picking out the heart marshmallows from their cereal, and giving them to each other as Valentines! How can I get mad at them for that?!? So I just smiled and told them to finish eating.  :)

First trampoline casualty....

Last night we had a super bowl party at our house... of course, we had to cheer on the Cardinals, and were so disappointed they lost. They were soooo close to winning it!!!  We had lots of fun though. We had lots of friends over, and TONS of yummy food! All the kids were outside jumping on the trampoline, and of course, leave it to Conner to be the dare devil. He thought it would be a good idea to walk around the trampoline on the outside of the net, as you can see.....
It was NOT!!!! He fell head first off of it. Then later, he bounced into another kids head, and got a bloody nose. Poor kid, he had a rough night.


But he is still a happy little boy!

By the way.... his face doesn't look nearly as bad today as it did yesterday.  He's a tough kid!

Calling all Tooth Fairy's!

This happened a few weeks ago, but I keep forgetting to write about it....
Brayden lost his first tooth!!!
He was very excited, it was just hanging there, and so finally when Patrick got home from work, he let him pull it out. He wouldn't let me, but I guess Daddy has the magic touch. He got a whole dollar from the tooth fairy that he decided to take to 7-11 to get a Slurpee with.  The tooth right next to the one he lost is already loose too, so it won't be long before the Tooth Fairy has to visit our house again!
