I love my kids

Ever since I've had this horrible headache (which is still hanging around), my patience with my kids has been a little thin. So here's to convincing myself that they really were very cute this last week.

Mason and Logan are obsessed with the Book of Mormon and Old Testament readers. they want to read them all the time, but I actually hid them last night because I'm starting to get worried that the images in the books are too violent for them. I heard Logan telling Mason that he wanted to read David and Goliath and Mason told him, "No Logan, Goliath is too scary for me." But I am proud that they want to learn the scriptures, Mason loves all the stories of Nephi.

They have also been into puppet shows. Here is Mason first and Logan second doing their shows. It is hilarious because you can't hear Mason when he smashes his face against the couch so we don't see him. Logan usually just kills off his puppets, with the Lion eating the monkey or something like that. Very entertaining.

My kids are also very into drawing pictures and hanging them on the fridge. This picture was taken even after 2 drawings had been removed by Mason because he wanted to show his teacher. My mom would have never allowed her fridge to look this this, way too much clutter for her -haha!

Logan's new phrase is, "Isn't that awesome, Mom?" He asks that about everything now and it makes me laugh. And the other night Eric asked Logan what he was doing in our room and Logan replied, "Don't worry about it." I think we have a smart alec on our hands!

I was going to the mall on Saturday and asked Mason if he wanted to go. He said yes, but then said, "You're going to change your clothes first, right? And maybe do your hair?" I was wearing a velour sweatsuit and had my hair up in a claw clip. He told me my hair was messy and it looked like I was wearing my pajamas. I did not change and I think he was embarrassed to be seen with me. Eric is very worried about these comments from his 4 year old son, but I think it's hilarious!

I guess I really do love my kids!

That is awesome Mason notices the details- your hair and outfit. Lucas says "That is sweet!" It still gets me smiling.
