What do we do when it snows in OK?

We...

Watch Daddy act silly...

make some cookies....

sleep a little....

or a lot....

paint some toes....

and make some pillow mountains.

all this while "enjoying" two weeks off of school!

From the mouth of Miguel...

Miguel is the funniest kid. I should start writing down everything he says but I'm usually to busy giggling about it to write it down. I thought I would share some that I could remember from the last couple weeks...

"Mom!, I busted my rump! "

After teaching Gabe how to properly jump from the couch onto the big pile of cushions and Gabe does it correctly, he shouts, "That's the ticket, Gabe!"

Me: "Miguel, what do you want the lesson to be about for Family Home Evening tonight?"
Miguel: (very serious) "Ummm....testicals...like how if you feed and water them they grow"
Me: ( trying not to laugh) "I think you mean testimonies, sweetie?"
Miguel: (serious) "No, Mom...testicals"

"Holy Guacamole!"

"Holy, tacos!"

"Holy Peanuts"

His response when something goes his way, "That's what I'm talkin' about!"

Me: "Miguel, are you hungry?"
Miguel: " You betcha, Mom!"

Emma: "I really like, animals. They are my favorite thing"
Miguel: "Emma that means you are attracted to them."
Emma : "What?!"
Miguel: "Yep, you're attracted to them."

Miguel wanted to know what the movie Unstoppable was about. We told him and then his Daddy asked him how he would stop a train that was out of control...
"I would stick bombs, grenades and time bombs on it and then let them do their thing."


"Mom, when people scream it scares me to high heaven"

Fav of the Week!

what they don't tell you about the iphone...

Side effects include extreme frustration, tantrums and perhaps some constipation.

The many faces of Benji

The kids had a snow day yesterday and Emma was terribly bored (after being home an hour longer than normal). She suggested we do a photo shoot with Benji. It was a lot of fun and I think we captured every look of his. Enjoy :)

Fav of the week!

Wouldn't he make a pretty girl?

He had to wear his sisters hat to go outside and when he looked at me with those big brown eyes I thought..."Well if Emma never get's a sister she could always dress up Gabe and pretend." : D
When he was a baby no matter what we dressed him in people always called him a girl. It must be those big brown "Tavares" eyes and those LONG eyelashes!
