Cade has been telling me for weeks that he wants to make his own website. I told him that maybe we could make a blog, which is even better (because it's easy) than a 'real website'. He would love to put up some pictures of himself. He knows he's pretty cute, and why not share the joy? He says to say "blogs are fun." So far, we are having an enjoyable experience. Cade is the middle child pictured here, and the middle child in our family. Perhaps this has something to do with his need to excel amazingly in everything he does. If he is 150% awesome, then he'll get noticed and praised for it, and he thrives on notice and praise. We think he's great, and we tell him so, and I'm glad that he believes us. Maybe now you'll see what a great kid he is too!
Luke is on the left. He just made a power point presentation about himself for his fourth grade class. He is standing right beside me, and would like you to know that he is here. Luke has an imagination like no other. He reads constantly, except when he's dreaming up his own stories. He also loves video games, karate, riding bikes, and swimming. We just moved very close to an indoor pool, and he is excited with the prospect of swimming through the winter, which we never get to do. Luke is a super helper...if you can get his attention long enough to ask for help.
Cole is just too much fun! He's the littlest; just turned three. He asked for a Lego "Bionicle" for his birthday, because that's what boys want for their birthdays, of course. He took it to bed last night and woke up with just the face of it this morning. He brought it out to me and asked in his grumbly sleep voice, "Where is the rest of my Bionicle?" He loves sleeping with Lego guys. I bet you may have never noticed how cuddly they are. His other favorite Lego guy is the Star Wars Storm Trooper. He calls them "Storm Trooper helmets," because the helmet is the best part. He loves pulling the arms, legs, etc. off (putting them back on is harder), but the helmets he can get off
and on, so they are definitely the most fun. The main problem with taking them to bed is that he ends up sleeping on lots of little Lego body parts all night, and if this ever wakes him, then we have to find all the missing parts (he always still has a hold of at least one part) in the dark, and reassemble the guy before he can go back to sleep. For a while we were past this stage, but here it comes again, I'm afraid. And I'll probably have to wake up his brothers to get the Bionicle back together, because Bionicles are a little above my skill level, especially at 2 am. But then again, he is getting used to sleeping on plastic poky things, so maybe it won't wake him anymore. I hope. :)
I, the mom of this fine crew, say 'boys are the best!' This is a good way to remind me of just how much fun we are having! You might not believe it, but sometimes I forget. Well, that's it for our first blog post. Catch you later!
