Happy Birthday Sweet Boy

Wow, I can't believe that it has been three years since his birth. It seems to me that he grows so much everyday. I am so proud of him and I love him to pieces. I really couldn't imagine my life with out this sweet boy. He give me hours of enjoyment and is such a big help when I need him.

Here are a few things that Brett does/loves to do:
*Count to 12
*Can Sing the alphabet, and only miss about 5 letters.
*He knows His shapes.
*He still loves to cook, I would say that it is more of a passion.
*Another Passions is tractors, He still LOVES them.
*Use hammers, screwdrivers, saws, nails. He pretty much likes to fix things.
*Read books, He can read two books. Well read/ memorize, either way I am proud of him.
*He Loves Dr Seuss books, and affectionately calls them his, "Seuss Books."
*Brett loves it when I sing him the silliest songs.
*He says his own prayers, he prays for everything under the sun. Including his(grandpa's) tractor.
*He has the greatest imagination.He will go up to people and say, "Oh no, I ran out of gas. I need gas." Usually the person he is talking to, tells him that they don't have any gas. At that point, I whip out my imaginary gas can and give it to him. He always says, "Oh, thank you Mama!" And then goes back to fill up his tractor with gas.

Today for his brithday we are taking him to the Zoo, and then we are going to hang out with some friends and have Pizza. We are also going to have a photo shoot, so keep an eye out for pictures.

I am so grateful for my little boy, I love him more then life itself.

Brett Says the Cutest Things

Brett is starting to finally(I shouldn't say finally, he has been doing it for a while) get his sentences down. 95% of people can understand him, with that he says some funny things.

Sometimes he will say something that make total and complete sense, and he will end it by saying, "Does that make sense, Mama?" To which I will say, "Yep, that makes sense."
My favorite is when we are at the dinner table and he says, "I am going to put my noodles(or insert what ever we are eating) in my milk. Make sense Mama?" He always has to make sure that it makes sense. I think he got this phrase from me. I am always asking if something makes sense, if you read this blog you can attest that sometimes, I don't make any sense.

I was doing something will he the other day, and I said to him, "This way big boy." He looked up at me and said, "I'm not a big boy." I was a little stunned, since Kate birth we have called him big boy. So I told him, "Yes, you are a big boy." He then said, "No, I am not a big boy, I am Brett." To which I replied, "You are big boy Brett." He said to me, "No, just Brett"

Did any of that make sense??

We Are CRAZY!!

So this last month has been super crazy. I have been running around trying to get my Webelos caught up. Two of them are receiving their Arrow of Light, and I was trying to get them passed off before their birthdays. I am loving every minute of Cub Scouts. Jon Has been studying for his Qualifying Exam, which is a huge deal. Once he passes this exam he become a candidate for his PhD program. If he fails the test, we could be done for. So the kids and I have been out of town the last couple of weeks, so that Jon can study with out any distractions. Mom Wierschke has been watching the kids, so that I can scrapbook a years worth of pictures for my sister in law, in two weeks. Which means super late nights. The kids have been doing great. Brett have been saying the funniest things lately. Kate is exploring and loving every second of it. Anyway I thought that I would let you all know that I have just been super busy, and the blog kinda got shoved off the list of priorities. We do however, have a lot of things to tell. Some sad and some fun. Don't give up on me just yet.

Eating Habits

Why eat one Cheerio at a time, when you can shove them all in your mouth. She is hilarious to watch when she eats. I don't understand this frantic behavior. The other day, she out ate Brett and I put together.
