While I fold laundry I let the kids do whatever they want so as not to ruin my piles. Paul wanted to color. Paul needed a boost. Paul found my scriptures. What is that saying?... Build on the Rock of Christ? or something?

Yes, he still makes this face.

Boy do we love cars! AND, this is the closest we come to seeing a buffalo out here.

I've been working on Christmas crafts this month. That white case is where I store my sewing machine for quick access. Aparently Paul thought so too. I found him here moments after entering our house. Lydia had to use the bathroom. When I got back I found a trail of shoes, socks and ohhh, look where he ended up. And for the record he has my keys in his hands, no wonder I can never find them. That is a face that has been caught.

And finally, this is the trick I use to keep Paul quiet while I put Lyddie down for a nap (yes, I do lay by her still and I still enjoy it). A Box of raisins. It has to be this certain box that doesn't have the wrapper in the inside of the box. Just give Paul a box of raisins and he'll sit right there for ten minutes!!! It's the most wonderful idea I've ever had. This particular time I fell asleep with Lyd so I had been away for 15 mins. Look how happy he is! He is a wonderful boy when he as a box of Sunmaid Raisins. Oh and don't worry, we've been giving him raisins since before he had teeth.
I love your photos! I am so excited to see you guys! Paul is a crack up!! He definitly had a deer in the headlight look!!! I hope to get some time with you guys! THERE IS SO MUCH SNOW HERE IN IDAHO! Love ya!
ReplyDeleteWhat a character! Isn't it wonderful when you find those things to entertain children, and it gives you a break. I can't lay down with Jaycee or I will fall asleep every time, not that it's a bad thing. Sleep is good.
