Funny Funny Kids

Baylee was quizzing Ethan about math as they colored at the bar. She was asking things like what's 10+3+2? I would help him with his answers and Baylee would say, "You are so smart Ethan." Then Baylee said, "Becky you are smarter than my mom." I grinned and said, "Oh, I don't think so." Ethan whispered, "Sometimes mom's don't answer correctly (yes, he used that word) so you will think your smart." :)

Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma Patti's


Every year my mom does an Easter Egg Hunt in her backyard. The kids just adore it! They run around looking for all the candy with their name on it. Mom always goes all out getting the kids a little of everything, but I say it's her right as a
Grandmother.

Ethan just loves being at grandma's with all his cousins. You add candy and that's like his heaven. It was a great morning.


Ethan and Izzy had the funnest time! I wasn't sure Izzy would be able to go because she was so sick the day before. Luckily she was alright when we woke up...still has an icky cough though.
That didn't stop her from saying, "Treat! Treat!" every time she found candy. She had a lot of fun!

Thanks mom for being such a fabulous grandma...and mom!

Imagination Abounds

This is LDS General Conference according to a six year old boy with a bucket full of Legos. Complete with the Prophet holding a microphone, the jumbo screen behind him, and the pulpit. Darling huh? He is so imaginative and clever.
Ethan is 6 1/2 now. He wants to be a scientist when he grows up. He wants to invent all the creations he see on Jimmy Neutron and Star Wars. Ethan is really into light sabers and reading (or being read to). We really like Junie B Jones stories and Skippy John Jones (both wonderful books). He is advancing really well in school. His tests show him reading on a 2nd grade level. I believe he is well on his way to becoming a scientist. :)
