When the house gets quiet...

Every mom knows that when the house gets quiet you need to do a quick inventory of what your kids are doing because it is usually not a good thing. In our house when the house gets quiet this is usually what we find our 2 year old doing. I know it seems ridiculous but its not. Its wonderful! Sometimes blessings come in the strangest ways. We are thankful for them nonetheless.

Milk and the morning paper

Toddler brain candy is what this moment is all about!This is one of my very favorite "Warren" moments of all time. As you probably know, Warren LOVES Thomas the Train. Every time you buy a new character, it comes with a little fold out catalog that has all the Thomas characters on it (There is probably around 75-100 on it). We keep one in the car for longer car trips. Once we give it to Warren he is good to go for the entire ride. He will sit there and study every character ever so carefully! Just like a business man reading his morning paper. Occasionally he will pause and tell us about one of them and then continue with his studies. It always gives us a good chuckle. Love that boy.

Chillin at the Beach

We love going to Galveston. Warren loves gathering sea shells and building sand castles. He usually also loves crashing waves with us. We couldnt figure out why he was so scared this time. Especially since it had been a good 5 minutes before that Weston told him their were sharks in the water. ...hmmm....it was so odd. Dads are good for that kind of stuff. Maybe next time. lol

Camp Takula

The girls: The first night at camp we suprised the girls matching PJ'S with their names going down each leg and the intitials PJS on the hip. PJS was an acronym for Prayer Journal Scriptures and was to be a reminder for the girls to do these things each night. They loved them.

Push Jumps: My little sister Rach came up to camp with us and was continually amazing everyone with her athletic ability. This particular time she was jump roping in a military pushup position. That girl is an animal. The 10 other little girls that tried to follow her lead injured themselves in their attempts...wonder why.

Boating: We had a blast boating and swimming in the lake. We only got thrown off the tube once!

Camp was awesome. I was a little worried at first about the heat but it ended up not being so bad since we had air conditioned cabins, showers and a cafeteria. I know it sounds easy but it wasn't. The food in the cafeteria was horrible. :)
