Silly Kids!!

It always cracks me up to think about what really goes through the minds of kids. Especially when they can't really communicate back to you what they are thinking. You have to guess. As you can tell from the picture above, Joshua thinks he is "too big" to sit in a "baby seat" and has to sit in a "big boy chair". This is fine by us since Julianna will be coming soon anyways and he'll have to sit in a regular chair by then. But it makes me laugh to see how he comes to the table sometimes. Here he is obciously dressed because we are going out to dinner for a surprise birthday party. The expression on his face, along with the dinosaur visor (which he made ALL by himself) just crack me up! It makes me think that he should be some sort of card dealer or something in Vegas...or a salesman...LOL....

Then you have our little adventurer. She literally has NO fear in her. I caught her scaling the back of the couch the other day. While we were out to dinner (at TGI Friday's) and waiting for our food to arrive, I thought I would get a funny expression on her face if I gave her a lemon to gnaw on. She still has no teeth, but she could suck on it.....Boy was I wrong!!! SHE LOVED IT!!! Ate everything but the peel, and made absolutely no face. It didn't even appear to be sour to her. In fact, she wanted more!

By far though, the funniest thing has been the following story. And yes, you guessed it - it has to deal with Joshie (our little mishchief maker)....

Joshie is just like Jason - he LOVES ketchup on EVERYTHING.... Well, one day while he was supposed to be taking a nap, I went in to check on him because he had been awfully quiet for a few hours and was surprised he wasn't awake. Well, he was indeed awake and had climbed on top of his laundry hamper to reach the baby wipes that were on top of his dresser and had about 40 baby wipes in his bed. He was so proud of himself when I asked him what he was doing. This is the conversation we had:

ME: "What are you doing with all the baby wipes?"

JOSH: "Cleaning....Ketchup on face and in bed...Joshie cleaning for mommy"

ME: "You're cleaning, huh?"

JOSH: "Joshie helping mommy clean"

Now how can you do anything bu laugh at that!?He even had them inside his shoes!!! By the way, he did NOT have ketchup on him, but I am always teasing him after he eats because he will often have ketchup all over himself. LOL....
