Team Ostler: Field Trips

Field Trips

One of the best things about being a stay at home mom is being able to go on field trips with the boys. Since I had all 3 boys in school for the first time this year I was able to go on a lot of field trips.

I was able to go with Luke and his class to the Eco Station. I didn't take a lot of pictures on this one. I guess I had my hands full of keeping track of a class full of 5 year olds.

I was also able to go to Knott's Berry Farm with Jimmy's class. They learned all about California history this year in 4th grade and Knott's is full of it. They learned all about the early settlers and gold miners and they even got to pan for gold which was the highlight for most of the kids.

With Ben's class we went to the San Pedro aquarium. I did this field trip with Luke last year too. They have some fun activities for the kids including hatching your own grunyon eggs.

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?"
