No Ironman

April 14, 2013 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

John has two posters hanging in his room. One is Marvel Super Heroes. The other one is Marvel Villains. These posters have been hanging in John’s room since we painted his room. Since the posters have been hanging over his bed, the corners have gotten torn. Daddy bought some frames for the posters and framed… Continue reading No Ironman

This morning I got John ready. When he was dressed, I him to go in the bathroom and brush his teeth and tell Daddy to get out of the shower (or as John says “Shuttin’ ‘er down!”) John looks at me and says “I know just what to do!” He goes into the bathroom and… Continue reading Shuttin’ ‘er down!

Outside

I picked the kids up from school today. Both of them had red cheeks. I asked John how many times he got to play outside today (normally the highlight of his day). He said “No nap today! You know what that means? We went outside three times today!” I asked Gillian the same question. She… Continue reading Outside

Traffic and cookies

April 9, 2013 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

Driving to work this morning and I got stuck in a little traffic. I completely forgot that there was construction on 520 and that it was the first day back from spring break for some schools. Anyway, I got stuck in some traffic. John says “I’ve never seen these houses before. They are creepy!” I… Continue reading Traffic and cookies

Chopsticks

April 8, 2013 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

I ordered Chinese food for dinner tonight. We don’t get Chinese food often, maybe once every six months. We always order sweet and sour chicken so the kids have something that’s easily identifiable. We gave the kids chicken, rice, and some lo mien. Gillian started eating right away. John watched Daddy eat for a few… Continue reading Chopsticks

Tonight at dinner, John wanted some ricotta cheese on his pasta. He pointed at the cheese and said to Daddy, “Will you do the honors?” Tonight I told John that he could get two Hersey kisses for Gillian and himself for dessert. John brought the kisses upstairs into Gillian’s room. The kids enjoyed their snack… Continue reading Little stories

John 0, Slide 1

April 4, 2013 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

John was playing outside at school today and fell down the stairs to the slide. He said “I was going down the stairs and I think I missed a step!” Poor boy scraped his cheek and forehead and fell into the mulch. While he was in the shower tonight, he complained that his eye hurt… Continue reading John 0, Slide 1

This weekend Gillian had to go potty. I quickly rushed her to the bathroom and helped helped her get on the potty. While I was waiting for her to go, she says to me, “Mommy! Turn on the light!” I guess when I was rushing I didn’t turn the light on. It was the middle… Continue reading Creepy

Easter

On Easter Sunday, we went to Mimi and Poppy’s house in the morning. We arrived and waited for the neighbors to arrive. When the neighbors arrived, we sent the kids outside for an egg hunt. The kids eggs were hidden by the deck. John was the oldest and we told him to not go for… Continue reading Easter

Painting

Daddy spent majority of today painting Gillian’s room. After the first coat of paint, we ran a few errands with the kids. It was so nice outside, that after running errands I decided to keep the kids outside. I made them some sidewalk paint. They were excited at first, but John got bored quickly. I… Continue reading Painting
