Okay, I know I am really late getting this post up since Jimmy actually started school over a week ago, but better late than never. He is loving kindergarten! He didn't even seem nervous on the first day at all. I thought he would be a little bit nervous but he was excited and ready to go. Other kids in the class were having a hard time leaving their moms but Jimmy didn't care at all. Which kind of made me sad but kind of made me glad too for his sake. Notice the nice buzz hair cut. The day before school started, while Jim and I were unpacking boxes, Jimmy decided to sneak away to our bathroom and cut his hair. He was due for a haircut but come on! When I asked him why he did it he said that the hair was tickling his ears so I felt really bad after that. I meant to give him a hair cut before we left Ohio but we were so busy that it just didn't happen. Anyways, it's done now. He looks like he belongs in the military. At least it will grow back!
I love the first day of school pictures! I am glad that the hair on his ears won't "tickle" him anymore. I am already trying to find a time that I can come back to California and visit. . . . any ideas? Maybe I could even come when Jimmy is in school and go be a "parent volunteer" I would love it!
Omigosh, Jimmy looks just like you! Can you see it? I swear, the picture where his hair is longer totally took me to your house playing with Shasta - he looks more like you than you did at that age. :) So cute!
I have been terrible about keeping in touch and blog stalking....I will work on that.
We were at church and during the sacrament I was talking to Luke about Jesus. I told him that Jesus bled and died for us. Luke looked at me with a very concerned look and said, "Did Heavenly Father give Jesus a band-aid when he was bleeding?"
We were about to walk out the door so I told Luke to go potty. He came out of the bathroom saying, "I can't go! The batteries in my pee pee are dead!"
After Ben finished a big meal he said, "my tummy is so big and full I look like Grandpa now!" (sorry dad).
Ben pointed to a picture of the prophet and said, "That's President Monckley!"
We have a saying in our house. It's "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" But Ben has his own version of this. He says "you get what you WANT and you don't throw a fit!"
Jimmy said that he is allergic to babies. I asked him how he knew and he said that he gets sick when he smells them.
Ben asked me for another piece of halloween candy and I said, "Mommy is ready for the halloween candy to be gone" and Ben said, "Yea, gone in my mouth!"
We were driving past the gas station sign and Ben said, "I see a lowercase 5 on that sign."
I was talking to Jimmy about election day and asking him if his teacher voted and he said that she was "absent" that day. (I finally realized what he meant. She had just mailed in an absentee ballot.)
Ben put a whole bunch of toilet paper in the garbage and I told him that is a no, no. He said, "no it's a yes, yes!"
I tell Jimmy on a regular basis that needs to talk nicely. He yelled something across the room to me and I gave him the look that said I didn't like the tone of his voice and he said, "I was yelling nicely!"
Jimmy and I are listening to "Give Said the Little Stream" and Jimmy says "How does it talk?" I said "How does what talk?" He said, "The stream, it doesn't have a mouth, how can it talk?"
