Indiana Jones and the Journey for the Jade Jaguar

So here's some publicity for A's future movie. He is very interested in Indiana Jones and decided to make his own addition to the series. He has written a movie script already and made this poster in art class. All he is waiting for is a little money. Any donations? ;-) He also wants to know if anyone is interested in starring in it - and don't feel bad if you're over 60- you could still be one of the main characters!

Birthday Suits

This morning -
Coco: "Mommy, what's a birthday suit?"
Mommy: "Well, that's the suit that God sent you in when you were born."
Coco: "Really? Do you still have mine?"

Need to Increase Your Brain Power?

Neil-te was sick with a fever last night. He barreled through the whole day as if he was in perfect health, only to beg to go to bed before he had even eaten. It was then that I realized he had a fever. This morning, he awoke to inform me that he felt, "just wonderful" and that he was sure his brain was smarter today because he'd had a fever!

Like Mother, Like Son?

So I admit, I have a major sweet tooth - especially for chocolate! I am even one of those people who sneaks into the cupboard to grab some chocolate chips. Apparently, I have passed this wonderful trait on to my dear, littlest boy. KiKi has begun stealing candy and cookies at every possible opportunity. I have found him hiding under beds with candy stuffed in his mouth, stealing candy from his brothers when they are not looking, and even scaling my pantry to reach the top shelf where the Girl Scout cookies are stored. This is a picture of this morning's climb. Please notice the chocolate surrounding his mouth! How can you not laugh?

Thank you, H!

So what do you think of my awesome, new, blog format? My cousin, H, went in last night and fixed it up for me and found a great new title. I love it!

Christmas Already!?

So we started decorating for Christmas on Saturday. What a difference in preparations this year! A and C handled building the tree by themselves, and needed only a little help from daddy when they put on the lights. All of the boys, but Z had fun putting on the ornaments and setting up the nativity sets. For some reason, Z did not want to put any decorations up. So he cuddled with daddy on the couch while the rest of us decorated. Even the boys get nostalgic when putting up ornaments, remembering that they were only 3 when they made or received something. Some of my favorite ornaments to put up are the ones that my aunt makes every year for our white elephant gift exchange. The ones in the picture that are letters are ones that D and I fight to get! :-) The other ones were gifts from her.
