Random Happenings of the Week

• My step-brother and sister n law are going on a cruise for the week, so we are keeping my niece Jordan. Should be interesting to see what it is like with 2 kids in the house.

• We went to Super Target on Saturday and found toothbrushes that play music in your head while you brush your teeth. The vibration on your teeth causes the song to play in your head. It is really cool! They had everything from transformers to my little pony! Dan bought a toothbrush that plays the Indiana Jones theme song. He says it makes brushing your teeth more fun! I didn't get one because we didn't think it would work, now I wish I would have!! What can we say, we are kids at heart!!!

• When you give a child sidewalk chalk, your whole sidewalk becomes a canvas. Jordan has created a life size image of her mom on our sidewalk. Beautiful!!!

• Joshua is slowly mastering how to bend down and pick up an object without having to sit down completely. He just started trying this. It is funny to watch him. He goes down in slowly and takes his time and then after he comes back up he has a look of shock on his face, like he can't believe what just happened.

• Watch what you say! Every once in awhile Joshua will repeat something that we say. It isn't exactly what we say, but it is pretty close and we know what he was trying to say. Smart little boy!

• Joshua slept with a blanket through out the night last night for the first time!

• Joshua greets us at the door with a hug and "Hi"! It is the best thing to come home to!

• We signed Joshua up for swim lessons this past week. He will go Mon-Thurs. for 10 sessions starting June 8. We are looking forward to those lessons! We took them last year, but it was cut short, because he got a cold. Hopefully this year we can complete the lessons!

• Bubbles make everything better! We have a bubble machine that according to the box shoots out thousands of bubbles a minute! Entertainment for hours! Just make sure you buy an economy size bottle of bubbles!!!

We hope everyone has a wonderful week to come!!!!
