Things I Am Loving About The Kids Lately

#1- That Kensie is old enough to prepare and give the FHE lesson, and young enough to still be excited about it.

#2- Sleep overs. Kensie and Lincoln look forward to Friday and Saturday nights every week so that they can have sleep overs in Kensie's room. Jackson used to attend but realized that his bed is much more comfortable than Kensie's floor, so he opted out. Lincoln always ends up in Kensie's bed and they have fun talking and reading to each other.

#3- This kid:

He is such a crack up! He is by far my most mischievous child, but no matter what naughty thing he's done I can't help but laugh and give him a hug when he says "Oh, sorry mom. I really am."


#4- Jackson's recent obsession with the baby. He's constantly asking me questions like "mom, how do they cut the baby out with scissors?", "is the baby naked in there?", and "he loves me, huh?"
He loves jiggling my stomach to make the baby move and shouts "he wiggled on me!". He also loves to tell the baby stories by talking into my bellybutton. Most of his stories go something like this- "Once upon a time there was a baby in mommy's tummy. He was naked. He liked to sleep...."

#5- That the boys have insisted on wearing their swimming suits for two days in a row. Luckily I can convince Lincoln to wear regular clothes to school, but he changes as soon as he gets home. They wear their sunglasses indoors and Jackson refuses to wear his "gym shoes" and opts for sandals. They've got some serious spring fever!
