Emma's Wisdom

I had an amusing conversation with Emma this morning while she was taking a bath. I had to share the funny!

Emma : What's a baby?
Me : A little person that hasn't grown up yet.
Emma : Oh.
Me : I have 5 babies...Matthew, John, Noah, Emma, and Ava.
Emma : Don't forget Daddy.
Me : No, he's not my baby. He's my husband.
Emma : No, he's your baby Daddy.
Me(laughing) : Yep, you're right. He sure is.

Overheard In The Ward

Ok, seriously...this has got to be the funniest thing I've EVER read!!! Tonight I stumbled upon this site called overheardintheward.com . I have been glued to it for the last hour. I could not stop. I kept reading page after page after page, and laughed like I haven't laughed in a very long time. My eyes burn, my throat hurts, and I'll be honest...I think I peed a little. I could totally relate. Have any of you ever heard crazy off the wall things in F&T meeting? Have you ever taught a primary class full of very honest, very funny 4 year olds? Can you recall the last time someone made a comment in R.S. or priesthood that made you feel awkward and uncomfortable? If you answered yes to any of these questions...then this site is for you. I hope I don't offend anyone. It's all in fun. And p.s.....my Mom called while I was in hysterics. I read a few to her and we were laughing so hard we could hardly get a breathe, couldn't talk...absolutely hysterical! Hey...if it's good enough for Sister Pack, then it's tops in my book!

Here's a little sample :

Do As I'm Doing goes horribly wrong!

Sunbeam Teacher: What else can we sing about? Billy, what do YOU do with your hands?Sunbeam: Play with my winkie!Sunbeam Teacher: Oh… my… well, we can’t sing about how fun that is to do… how about we sing about washing our hands?

Fun Times With the Jeff Packs!

I miss you guys already! We had such a great week with Jeff, Laura, Ethan, and baby Austin. I think it's so sweet that they would choose to spend their hard earned vacation time with us. I love spending time with my family, especially those who we don't get to see very often.


Baby Austin is the sweetest thing! He smiles and laughs all the time. You just want to cuddle and snuggle him, and kiss that cute face. Mom and Matthew had fun playing with him on their last night with us.

Love that double breast pump in the background! Gotta make that miracle milk for baby Ella!

Before we left for Mom's house, John asked me to fix his hair like Jeff's. As it turned out this was the only day Jeff had flat hair...funny. I thought it was so cute that John wanted to be like Jeff
Here we are at the Pumpkin Patch. Jeff hopped up on top of the hay bale maze to snap a few pics.

Emma and Ethan in the field of sunflowers...they were gorgeous.
Ava was not too sure about all this nature. Did you know that my kids are sometimes allergic to nature? We lovingly refer to it as N.D....Nature Defficient.

Ok, I guess this stuff isn't too bad...tastes pretty good. She'll eat anything!

All the kiddos lined up on their very own pumpkin. Sophie doesn't look uncomfortable at all. What a bunch of hams...look at those cheesy grins!
We all had a fun filled busy week, and were sad to see it come to an end. We're already looking forward to the next visit. We love ya'll!
