For Kicks..

Nothing new to report yet, but I was sick of seeing the same post up here so I wanted to change it. Here's a funny story I will want to remember (so I'm writing it down)

Before dinner, Dane was playing with a flashlight and he wanted a candy cane (yes the left over ones from x-mas), so he first tried to sneak one from the pantry but we caught him. So Ike and I went about our business and after a few minutes I noticed it was pretty quiet so I looked around for Dane (I was still in the kitchen making dinner) and I noticed a light inside the pantry. We don't have a light in there because it is not very big at all...HMMM...so I open the door to find Dane hiding out and eating the candy cane we said he could not have and using the flashlight for light in the very small dark pantry that he locked himself in. It was freaking hilarious. Of course I took the half eaten candy cane away and told him that was naughty, but I don't think he got it because I couldn't keep a straight face while scolding him. He's a clever little devil. Now I'm kicking myself that I didn't get a picture of it! I love that kid!

I love little stories like this. Those are the moments that I love being a mom... even if they are being "naughty" as long as they are making you laugh. :)
Looks like you guys are in the same boat as us. I am teaching full time at Rockwell Charter High and Ben is doing night school to be a Respiratory Therapist. It works out because Ben is home cooking, cleaning, and watching Kenna.
I have been aching to go to Bay of Dreams!! The down turn of the economy hasn't helped me get any free trips down these days. That would be so fun! Ben and I have talked about going down to run my grandpa's house. I will let you know next time I get to go. (sorry about the massive comment-next time I will just email :))

That's cute,sometimes you've got to give them credit for being sneaking.

What a busy year so far! The pantry story is too funny. I probably wouldn't have done better at the whole discipline thing. I would have been laughing my head off for sure.

I love stories like this! Sometimes it's so hard to get mad or even keep a straight face about the naughty things they do.

I hope things are going good for your cute little family!

Sounds like he is a chip off the old block....like his "house mouse" mom always running around in her cute little long flannel night gown and hiding all the "tiny" things in the house she could find in any wierd place like behind the curtains on the window sills or behind doors. I love that little guy almost as much as I adored his mom.!!
