I haven’t posted in a while. A little bit of “not enough time” and a whole lot of “winter blues” are the culprits. And I guess there just hasn’t been much to post about. So I’ll just share some pictures and some things the kids have said over the past month.
Kingston was running around shirtless this day. He ended up finding the warmest spot, where the sun was shining in.
Target’s dollar spot had $1 fedoras!
We went to the Burnin’ Love event to celebrate St. Louis’ 250th birthday. That night was extremely miserable. Soaked, ice cold, muddy feet. I need to find some rain boots!
Liam made a train track picture of me, thinking of a picture that he drew. That’s a thought bubble.
Kingston deserves this. But really, lately, they are becoming pretty good friends. Kingston loves his “gully.”
There’s been a new card game addiction in our house. The other night, we played a 2 hour game of war. The secret to ending the game–throw Don in the mix and he somehow ends up losing pretty quickly.
I got a few minutes to work on some of these cute paper fan decorations!
The boys were pretending it was hot. So they put on swim trunks and flip flops. Kai and Kingston actually grabbed 12 month swim trunks. Not sure how Kai managed to squeeze into those!
Book club! A moment of peace as they read together.
Daddy with Evangeline. I just love that face. And she just looks so grown up in this picture.
This is the best color combination…seriously!
Throughout February, I’ve remembered to document some of the stuff the boys have said.
In cgroup, Talking about what people see if they see your true self.
Pastor Scott- “what comes out of you when you’re squeezed?”
Liam- whispering to me- “blood”
Kai- “Mommy, you’re right!!”
Me- “Kai, mommy is always right.”
Kai- “no, Jesus is.”
Me- “Liam, if you could change something about me, what would you change?”
Liam- “Nothing”
Me- “Why wouldn’t you change anything about me?
Liam- “Because I REALLY love you!”
****Liam knows how to make me feel loved.
Kingston (randomly chiming in to my conversation with Liam and Kai.
“Jesus……ate……..cocoa puffs”
*****That’s pretty much how all conversations with Kingston go. So random.
Kai- “Mommy, what is the middle number…of all the numbers?”
Me- “Uhh…I don’t know. But zero is the lowest number.”
Liam- “Nu-uh mommy! Don’t forget about negative numbers!”
Me- “……yeah. Thanks Liam. Zero is the middle number.”
*****I predict many years of him correcting me with this stuff.
Liam- “I’m going to marry Penelope. I don’t want to marry anybody that is older than me.”
Me- “Why not?”
Liam- “Because I would not want an older person marrying me…….but you and daddy will probably be dead when me and Penelope get married.”
Kai sneezed while eating a bowl of cereal.
Kai- “I ‘bless you-ed’ in my bowl but I wiped it on the table.”
Me- “That’s gross, Kai. You are not supposed to wipe snot on the table.”
Kai- “Can I lick the snot?”
Kai- “Mommy, I’m tired of everyone making noise-ic.”

A whole lot of randomness in one post!
