Team Ostler: Thanksgiving Eve Sleep Over

Thanksgiving Eve Sleep Over

The boys were so excited for Thanksgiving this year because Jim's sister, Amber got to come spend the weekend with us. She also came last year and I am really hoping that this will become a Thanksgiving tradition for our us. It is so nice to have family spend holidays with us. The night before Thanksgiving they asked me like 20 times when Amber was going to be here. They decided that night that they wanted to have a "sleep over" and set up a little tent with blankets and get the sleeping bags out. It took a while to get them to settle down and actually get some sleep but eventually they did. In the morning both of them were back in their beds. Can't say I blame them. It's much more comfortable than the floor.

Amber: I can't believe how big your boys are getting. I think your Ben and my Grant look like they could be brothers.; December 4, 2009 at 9:35 PM
Amber: I am so sorry that I missed the sleepover because I didn't come that night! If only I had been brave enough to drive into LA late at night. You should have told me!

I think Thanksgiving in LA is a must from now on. I'll come for as long as you'll have me. Tell the boys we can have a sleepover at my house with tents and sleeping bags and the works in a couple of weeks!; December 5, 2009 at 2:26 AM

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?"
