The summer was seriously great. I really worried about having a Cherry Hill pass with a one month old and taking my other two kids by myself. But, it was just fine. London was kind of my babysitter for Madden. If he disappeared, she had to go find them. Luckily the baby was fine, although she did not like nursing under a cover in the hot sun...neither did I. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Family vacation was wonderful, as always. Monica and I shared a room since we were both nursing. Funny thing about that was that in the middle of the night we would be feeding our babies at the same time. It seemed like they just always had the same schedule.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They even napped the same time with Mandy's baby on our hikes! </div>

One thing Mom and Dad did is give all the kids "Warrior" shirts and taught them about Nephi. </div>

On the front of the shirts it says, "When the goings get tough. (Then on the back) the tough get going". </div>

So whenever we were hiking at the kids got tired, they just said over and over, "The TOUGH GET GOING!"</div>

I think what I love most about McCall, was that every morning Madeline, or Monica and I would go running. It was a time to talk to family, it was time away from work, away from the gym, and it's always a time for memories.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before I forget, a little update on Madden. Madden has become really quite funny. He is colorblind and we deal with color issues on a daily basis. he asked me if I knew that his paint set had six blacks. It was actually dark purple, dark blue, dark green, black, brown, etc. Other things that he asks about is how old everyone is and things about Jesus and Satan. For example, Madden asks me how many brothers I have, I'll say two. Then he says, "No, you have three. you forgot about your big brother Jesus." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another time I was cutting his toenails and he started screaming, "Oh big brother, Jesus! Where are you! Please help me, Jesus!" I started laughing because he sounded like he needed to be in a Baptist church. I asked him why he would talk like that. His only response is that his primary teacher told him to pray if he ever needed help.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Madden also got the flu and asked why would Jesus make him throw up. I said that he didn't. Madden then asked if Satan made him throw up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The kid is pretty funny. Daily I'm annoyed with him but, at the same time laughing hysterically. Stayed tuned for another update!</div>

The guilt eats away at me whenever I think of my Journal/Blog being left stagnant. I have thought more and more recently how unfair it is for our little Hope not to have anything written down about her like I have London and Madden. The best thing to do, although the hardest, is to start when she was born. Hope's birth was the hardest out of the three but, no less joyful.</div>

She has been the best eater, sleeper, and is a happy baby overall. I thought for sure I'd have jealousy issues from Madden, but we had none at all. </div>

I think it was about two weeks after I heard Madden screaming outside. I flew out the garage door as he went in the front. I called to him and ran through the front door noticing all the blood all over our driveway, steps and house. He had split his chin riding his bike. I ended up taking him and the baby to the ER while my neighbor watched London for me. I thought he'd never ride that bike again but, two days later he was back at it! That's an experience I don't want to do again. July was a pretty packed month of fun. </div>

The next day we had the kids ride around in my parents' neighborhood parade. Madden was the first kid to fly around the corner on his bike. I yelled at him to slow down but he was gone.</div>

London was so excited about her bike being decorated that I bought crepe paper and horns. She had her bike decorated for days because she was excited. One thing about London is that she gets very fixated on something and does not procrastinate at all. </div>

She started piano and practices either right when she walks in from school or before she goes to school in the morning. This year I've really witnessed her become a little lady. London is very responsible but, sensitive. If she does something wrong, she feels horrible about it for a long period of time. </div>

London also has a great memory and has become an excellent reader. Rarely does she forget library day, her homework assignments, or things I've brought up about what we <i>might</i> do that day. I see a lot of Tyler in her that way. He is excellent and remembering anything he reads and she is the same way. She finished her first chapter book and exclaimed, "MOM, guess where they found the horse!....in the stabble!" I laughed and told her it was pronounced st-ay-ble. Now she asks me frequently how to pronounce words.</div>

This year in addition to starting piano, London started ballet at Clytie Adams. She loves it so much that Tyler and I took her to the Nutcracker this year for an early Christmas gift. Mid-ballet, she said, "When are they going to start talking?" I guess I should have explained it a little more. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Wow, Christmas just jumped on my back this year literally the day before. Madden only asked for a helicopter and London asked for a barbie puppy waterpark.(Oh yeah, it exists). </div>

Unfortunately Christmas morning came around and Mimi and Papa's house and I realized that Santa had forgotten to deliver a bunch of presents. One of those being the helicopter. Oh well, London did feel a little confused as to why Madden had more gifts than she did and why she didn't get any clothes to wear on Christmas day, but she was quick to forgive Santa's mistake. </div>

I seriously don't know what my deal is this pregnancy. I totally locked myself out of my car twice in three days. The first time I was stuck sitting at Wal Mart, praying that Mandy found me a spare key all the while trying NOT to puke in public.

Like steamed broccoli in the cupboard, cereal in the fridge, and cookie dough in the pantry. The good man that he is shields me from further confusion and just takes care of it.

Tyler did end up coming to bed after playing Xbox until 2:00 a.m.. This is an improvement because in years past, he and Bradley (my bil) have stayed up until 5:00 a.m.. Which is what time the kids awoke this year. We had two Christmas Eve's this year. The first was at Ty's mom's house where the kids got all dressed in their nativity best. Tyler bought me a camera this year and unfortunately, I don't know how to download the pics. So further images of Christmas will have to be in the near future. Does that make sense? Anywho....updates for the week along with family pics:</div>

I feel so grateful that I've been able to catch rides up with her stay close with them. Also, it's fun because not only am I pregnant, but Mandy AND Monica are pregnant too! That's enough for today but, I'll post on Christmas sometime later this week.<br />
<br />
Fun Facts:<br />
-London is learning to read with a voracious appetite. So proud.<br />
-London and Madden quote the "warm-up suit" scene from Despicable Me with regularity.<br />
-Madden wants to name the baby "Sarnafina." Which is really Saraphina, the cat on one of London's barbie movies.<br />
-London is obsessed with Les Miserables and watches it consistently on TV and listens to it on her ipod. She wants to name the baby Cosette.<br />
-Madden makes up words just like London did. Ex: Colorish.<br />
-London and Madden will watch a movie together holding hands....everyday.<br />
<br />
<br />
That's all for now folks! <br />

In a two week period London started school, lost two more teeth, and learned how to ride her bike without training wheels. These are some major events, people! </div>

(Just a little picture of all the kids watching a show on a laptop. They all had identical faces the entire time.)Well, apparently I had one day in two weeks with only two hours of free time. I chose to take the kids to Cherry Hill instead of work on the blog. But, now I'm so behind that it's discouraging! We, of course, had our family vacation in July in McCall and absolutely loved it. This year, I spent every morning running in the mountains and enjoying time by myself. Then during the days they were packed with our usual vacation delights. </div>

The boys got to go golfing or fishing so the ladies actually got an afternoon to ourselves. We went knick-knack shopping and had lunch.

Yay! I can't even tell you how excited I am to get into summer. So many things have happened since the last time I posted. London turned five, we went to a Jazz game and got to meet the players, Madden got a hair cut...the list goes on! Let's start with the Jazz game. </div>

Nope! The kids were hilarious. They loved the players, they loved the game, and London loved little Ryan Frei. They're about the same age and literally had no issues playing kissing tag in front of their entire families. I guess I've got a problem to deal with now! </div>

Yeah, see that boot on my foot. I totally sprained my ankle running in the mountains that morning. Good thing Madeline was there to carry me down! I can't even tell you how sick I am of injuries. I need a break! I'm sure some people are curious as to my health, and I am feeling better. I've been on medications and frequently have dr's appointments to regulate my levels and meds, so life is on the mend. That's also why I'm sick of the injuries. It's just one more thing! I think I was meant to live this life as a clutz. I'm sure that if an entire year went by without me having an injury, I would be confused at to what I was doing wrong rather than right!</div>

Yes, it really has taken me quite a while to post. I think I even missed posting about Thanksgiving, my birthday and Christmas. Oi vei, I am ashamed. Things in the Barnes' home have been chaotic, to say the least. I have had some medical issues that were unexpected and I'd like to blame it on fatigue for my lack of posting...but it's laziness pure and simple. Gratefully we've had some wonderful tender mercies thrown our way. </div>

I'm on the mend and on a nice little cocktail of medication that should bring me back to my healthy, happy self:) Tyler has been so great during this process and I'd be ungrateful to have him as a spouse and not voice my appreciation in his support. I'm sure he's about to divorce me over the medical bills, but hopefully he still loves me amidst the drama! The kids are getting so big and saying the funniest things. London told Tyler and I the other day that Jesus was no longer on this Earth even though he was resurrected. Like the proud parents that we are, we said, "That's right!" She was also proud and said, "Yep, Jesus lives in the woods now." Completely confused we just looked at each other. Finally, Tyler asked, "Do you mean the woods where Jesus and Heavenly Father appeared to Joseph Smith?" She said, "Yes that's what I JUST SAID! Cause I just know things and nobody told me." It's odd the things that totally just become confusing in a little child's brain. </div>

It was great to see Monica, Brad and Clara. She's such a cute little mix of both of them. London and Tyler had spent some time making me a chain necklace for my birthday. London had told Tyler that she wanted to give mom a gift just from her and it had to be a necklace with diamonds and hearts. That's exactly what they made and it was absolutely precious.</div>

Best gifts ever. This year we spent Thanksgiving with Tyler's family...or Aunt's and Uncles and cousins. That was a rough day. I was feeling so very sick and had to teach at the Turkey Burn at Gold's Gym. After being there for four hours, I was so sick and physically exhausted that I really couldn't even eat Thanksgiving dinner. </div>

I pretty much just watched everyone else and tried to hide my wheezing chest. Madden also had a croup scare during this time and we spent an entire night at my parents so that my dad could check him.

Wow, it was a stressful night. Madden went back on the nebulizer but, this time with some steroids. Tyler kept saying how he knew our son was going to be big and strong and a pro football player at a young age. Sheesh. Now that it's January and the holidays are over, I can admit that I'm always a little depressed after Jan 1. I miss the family gatherings, the surplus of food, and presents. Yes, I love presents. Who said you can't like a gift after you become a mother? NOT ME! </div>

By the end of the day Ginger and Madden both collapsed on my dad. They were both so out and so hot, I'm sure my dad was sweating under all of that weight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just a couple updates: Madden and Gabe are obsessed with Thomas the Train. They both have little trains at Mimi's and got little movies for Christmas. Madden loves to wear his Thomas shirt (said with a lisp) and watching Mickie Mouse Clubhouse.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
London cut Madden's hair. We've been growing it out and it is beautiful and messy most of the time. London decided to cut a lock of his hair and I discovered this only after finding the locks hidden in the bathroom sink...not the garbage for some reason. When I finally got it out of her why she would do that she said, "Because Madden is a boy and he can't have longer hair than me! My hair is beautiful. His hair is handsome...when it's short."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
London and Madden have races with his trucks through the kitchen. London has a whistle in her mouth and yells, "One, Two!" and then she blows the whistle. Funny enough, she has to be in front so Madden never wins. He doesn't seem to care though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tyler's new business is doing well. He loves his job and is working night and day, day and night to make it a success. I'm proud of him and grateful that he helps out with the kids during some days so that I can teach my classes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until next update, have a good January and keep those resolutions!</div>Tyler and Shelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14257510752990908940noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320985818336762133.post-426495015428616212011-11-06T18:33:00.000-07:002011-11-06T18:33:44.838-07:00Catch Up Post Number 2<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It was so fun to have them here. Poor Clara has so many allergies that Monica totally has gone off sugar, peanut butter, dairy, and soy, and happiness. Yes, she is a wonderful mother and I witnessed her sacrifices and...wow. </div>

It was pretty depressing. Now, my body is regulating somewhat but, even though I'm not where I want to be, my goal is to find an attitude of gratitude. </div>

My children are amazing. I know they've noticed that Mommy is frustrated sometimes but, they hug me and kiss me constantly. </div>

I don't know any 2 or 4 year old who love to kiss their Mommy, but mine do. I feel like their affection was Heavenly Father's love for me being given through my little angels. </div>

One day Madden decided that he wanted to kiss everyone by licking. It was hilarious. </div>

We tried to get him to use his lips but, I think he could taste my lip stuff and Tyler's salt from his food on our lips. What a goof. Madden also thinks that if he hears a squeaking sound or that somebody passed gas that they "Pookied." </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We got a video of it and London loves to watch it over and over. One funny event that happened was I had made cupcakes for our neighbors and put them on the counter by the sink so that Madden couldn't get to them. I ran into the bathroom to finish my hair and decided it was a little too quiet. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I looked out into the kitchen and lo and behold, Madden had gotten London's stool from the bathroom and had somehow reached the cupcakes and was swiping his finger through the frosting.</div>

It was so funny that I couldn't even be mad. What's new with London is that she thinks big boobs are funny. Our little neighbor girl dressed as a grandma for Halloween and she had huge balloons in her moo moo. London laughed and laughed. Speaking of Halloween, our party was hilarious. Unfortunately, my camera died promptly after the party got started. </div>

Nor did I post any pictures of my neice, Clara's, baby blessing! What in the world is wrong with me? I can tell you, I got a job. Yep, you are looking at a new Les Mill's CXWORX instructor for Gold's Gym. I went to the training in September and was supposed to go to another training for a different program this weekend, but it was cancelled. It's probably a blessing in disguise though, because I have two broken toes and so many injuries I can't even count. </div>

Mandy had little Jameson and as a result, I had Gabe quite a lot! He and Madden decided the dolly stroller was the way to go. They'd push each other through the house and scream while doing it. Tyler and I laughed so hard...until the stroller broke. </div>

As of late, Madden and London are finally beginning their sibling jealousy. They fight constantly over trucks and cars but, if the other one is hurt, they're quick to comfort. Madden calls London either Lunun or Gicker (sister). </div>

He's been talking quite a bit. If I compliment him on speaking well, London gets a little hurt that I didn't compliment her. Ty and I have to be very aware of what we do with one child, we have to do with the other because they're THAT sensitive. </div>

London even had to have her own picture of her posing on Madden's birthday because we had taken more pictures of him than her. Aw, the future is going to be great :)</div>

I think my sister-in-law took this pic. McCall was fabulous once again. This was seriously a rare time when all of the grandkids got along and all of the parents were pleasantly surprised! The kids were quite funny. My niece, Ginger, also know as a spitfire, refused to be called by her name the whole trip. She wanted to be called, "Purple." So "Purple" is what we called her. She was very consistent, I must say. Monica and Brad had just had the baby before we left, so we were sadly missing them as well as Olivia. Because there was now extra room in my parents' car, we rode up with them. Can I just say two Tylenol PM's and 2 benedryl work wonders. I slept all of the way to Boise and didn't even complain. Tyler was thrilled. I think the kids did well too...hmmm...The first day of arrival, Madeline and I went for a run because we were both sick of being lazy after the long drive. Wow was it gorgeous. I was able to go running every morning and enjoy the gorgeous scenery.</div>

Ty carried Madden up this time and stayed ahead with my parents while I stayed back to help with the little kids.</div>

I was so glad that I had candy. I kept telling London and Luke that if they'd make it to a certain rock or tree, then they would get one piece of candy. Those kids were amazing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
They were hot, tired, and didn't complain once. They would just eat their candy, ask for a drink, and then go to the next check point. I was so proud. </div>

I think it's my new favorite hike. Of course, Dean got in the ice cold water and Luke followed dutifully. I felt so bad because they were freezing the rest of the way back. </div>

I passed this little family and they asked if I was Mandy's sister. I said, "Yes, is she okay? Did she have her baby?" They laughed and said that she was still pregnant and sitting in her lawn chair at the trail head. </div>

It was just funny that this family new Mandy's name and then they told me that had passed Camille, my mom, two seconds earlier. </div>

I guess they were reassuring us all that she was okay. Mandy did NOT have her baby on vacation, thankfully. It was such a great vacation. Thank you parents for loving us enough to have us crash your vacation every summer. I love my family.</div>

Our good friends Phil and Tiffany usually meet us there too so that their girls can play with London. She's pretty sure that they're her cousins but, can never figure out why. Even when I tell her the girls are just her friends, she refuses to believe or accept that. </div>

Mandy and I were pretty concerned about whether or not Gabe and Madden would handle the noise okay. </div>

Madden watched in complete silence and awe while Gabe covered his eyes with one hand. (can I just ask why is it so hard for everyone to look good in THE SAME picture?)</div>

After the fireworks we couldn't find Luke. Frantic and split up, everybody was looking and running around like crazy! They finally found him. Apparently he was wandering around without a care in the world BEFORE THE FIREWORKS! </div>

We lost him and didn't even notice amongst all of the kids! Luckily a woman saw him in front of her house and told him that he was too young to be walking by himself. She asked him to sit with them during the fireworks and watched him until we found him. Thank heavens for good people. Before the fireworks the kids had been playing around and throwing rocks in the pond with Papa....and..uh, Dean and London posed.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPs4e7LaOx3TvhNDuOq4uexBjya9fPf0doV91TxzcLKn3rDmTgxsqbvT4U4aysA518wi8P36nlusYTQCN-Nf2eurdTt93Y-ijmPPF_RMjGoMnA5Viz9Nq3_3RI41_0El2wBG09-31eG4g4/s1600/Non+Compete+018.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPs4e7LaOx3TvhNDuOq4uexBjya9fPf0doV91TxzcLKn3rDmTgxsqbvT4U4aysA518wi8P36nlusYTQCN-Nf2eurdTt93Y-ijmPPF_RMjGoMnA5Viz9Nq3_3RI41_0El2wBG09-31eG4g4/s400/Non+Compete+018.jpg" width="400" /></a> </div>

My dad was probably the most popular person because he was handing out the pebbles to be tossed. It was actually quite a fun and memorable night even with the fear of losing Lukers. </div>

London would have been devastated to miss the parade. I called Mandy, since nobody else in our family could go and luckily her in-laws and set up a place ahead of time.</div>

London has been coming up with the best lines lately. We've actually had quite an entertaining week! London asked me to tell her a story about animals. I began by telling her that once upon a time all animals were best friends. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I had to tell her about the Fall of Adam and went into that story. I got to the part where they were making leaves to cover their nakedness and London said, "Mom, are you almost going to say, 'the end' yet?" I said, "No, is this boring to you?" She said, "No, but this story is really weird. They were naked!" I told her that they were innocent and had minds like Madden.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
They didn't know that they were naked. She gave me a bored stare that clearly said that she thought I was full of it. After a minute she said, "The end." and she walked away. That was that! Later that week she asked for another story. I said, "Do you want to hear about Adam and Eve again?" She said, "Let's not tell that story ever again, Ok?" Okey dokey! London is also learning about technology, thanks to her little friends. She asked me this morning in the car on the way home for the gym if she could have a DS. I had to think for a minute and then I said, "You mean like a Gameboy?" </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
She rolled her eyes and said, "No, like a DS!!!!" Nope you can't have one. She started to cry and I started to laugh! ha ha! After she got settled down and was eating lunch with Madden, London asked me, "Mom is their a mysterious beyond?" Totally confused, I asked her to repeat herself about four times. Finally I assumed she'd heard something like that from a sci-fi cartoon or something. I finally answered, "I guess there's a mysterious world beyond this one and we call it heaven." She said, "I'm not talking about heaven...you just don't understand." Okay, I guess I don't. What four year old asks about a mysterious world beyond?!!! Madden has had some funny moments too. </div>

He's been quite a handful and frequently tests the waters to get me angry. Today he pushed our fertilizer spreader half-way down the block while I was watering flowers. After I saw him and started chasing after him, he dumped the spreader and ran in the middle of the road and just stood there! He had the most naughty grin on his face. Monday I was getting ready for Cherry Hill and I heard complete silence from him. Oh no, he's doing something bad. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My last funny story involves me and Ty. Tyler had the flu pretty bad on Monday. He'd been throwing up all day and was pretty much stuck in bed. I came home for Cherry Hill and was trying to take care of him, the kids, clean the house, and fix dinner at the same time. In a hurry to put away the clean laundry, I literally ran right into the couch and broke my toe. I realized it was bad when it was facing the wrong direction. I yelled at Tyler to come set my toe in place and my hero ran in to help me. Problem....he passed out in the family room right in front of me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then he crawled to bathroom down the hall and puked his guts out. When he was finished there, he literally crawled back to our bed with periods of just laying on the floor during that journey. I was left with overlapping toes and Madden concerned with his crazy mommy laughing her head off while clearly in utter pain. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
It was hilarious. I finally just had to pop my toe back in place myself. Tyler heard the pop and my yell but, other than that he was pretty much out. Don't worry, Tyler is feeling much better today...my toe however will feel much better in six weeks! That's all for now! Ta ta!</div>

Mandy and I were very good at holding it together until the garage door closed. Then we each had our own tearful moment for our sweet sister, Olivia. Madden and Gabe could not understand why the life was being squeezed out of them over and over again. Libby said, "These boys are going to be all grown up when I get back!" </div>

I said, "It's true...Madden already has a unibrow and a mustache." We laughed because he really does! But, I can see why Libby was sad! Well, the weekend after Olivia left, Mom and Dad went to France with some friends and I think it was a good thing. Mom probably would have bawled for three weeks straight if it wasn't for the distraction. We visited Madeline during that time. </div>

I'm so unbelievably proud of her. This was not an easy decision to make, but once she made it, she was committed. Her leaving is partly why I haven't posted in so long. I've been trying to get in as much time with her as possible. This may have to be in two posts because I haven't even uploaded my pics from Libby's farewell!

For some reason, the last couple weeks have been exhausting. I couldn't really tell you why, but they have been. Ty usually lets me sleep in a couple minutes longer than him every day. But, one morning we took Madden into bed with us and he actually fell asleep! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjhdTMf9G3DwNPIzgsaUc5D-P78z9bEe4U5KIIQmjPkdhpV66GhfMddaBXkpiFnRUxpA1bvcGXiQ4jNcbXuCFRP1uF8od5YoHycO-WGZO1wXcyNHF_nBYBNX3o-EqsKMqn4htCuB6aq_hi/s1600/mistake+042.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjhdTMf9G3DwNPIzgsaUc5D-P78z9bEe4U5KIIQmjPkdhpV66GhfMddaBXkpiFnRUxpA1bvcGXiQ4jNcbXuCFRP1uF8od5YoHycO-WGZO1wXcyNHF_nBYBNX3o-EqsKMqn4htCuB6aq_hi/s400/mistake+042.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608853657255303250" border="0" /></a>Fortunately I got a picture of my cuddlers. Whenever I get Madden and bring him to bed with us, he immediately shoves me away and turns to his daddy. He loves Ty. I can't say that it makes me feel that great! The kids spend a lot of time looking out the window since it has been raining so much lately. In fact, I've found many lost sippie cups behind the blinds! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhScV90mkGRaoNUYJ2oBCfRjxOY7SR5721TYUd3v6NQjdNMeF5QSxodDtRUMvmNs6of9i6taeL3E5foUg8Hyi0hah0sj9_53ZzzU1CkYd7IM4ZuFvlPTEP7H1GmNR416yqtLCLPrcQHy6Jf/s1600/mistake+040.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhScV90mkGRaoNUYJ2oBCfRjxOY7SR5721TYUd3v6NQjdNMeF5QSxodDtRUMvmNs6of9i6taeL3E5foUg8Hyi0hah0sj9_53ZzzU1CkYd7IM4ZuFvlPTEP7H1GmNR416yqtLCLPrcQHy6Jf/s400/mistake+040.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5608853341178127346" border="0" /></a> Madden and London still love eachother and have taken to dancing with one another at any available moment. The problem is that when Madden gets bored, he squeezes the crap out of London!

I love these memories the kids are creating. Speaking of memories I have to remember what the kids have said this week. Madden called a sucker a "cucker". London screamed her head off at Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (we won't be watching that for a while.) She asked me why the girl turned into a blue monster. Go figure. I'm totally pulling a blank right now, but I'll write down the funny stuff for the next post. Adieu!

He knows that when you get to three something exciting happens. What a goof. London loves to comb Madden's hair. They frequently spend time in the bathroom for her to put barrettes in his hair and he gets to put his toothbrush under the water while she does it! They love each other. Nothings better when you have children whose best friend is each other.
