Boys like to cuss....(even 2 yr olds)!

Karter has been getting in trouble the last few weeks for his language. It started with 'dang it' and 'butt'. He would say them over and over or run a bunch of words together and throw 'butt' in every so often. So, we started really getting on to him for it and he got time out and spankings and so now it's better, sort of.

He still has a bad attitude at times and will just say a whole bunch of random words together, but he's saying them with a bad attitude. So now we are working on his attitude. For example, when I spank him, his response is...'You don't spank me! Hotsauceblahblahblah!' He then gets another spanking for having a bad attitude and sassing his mama!

It is funny after the fact and I have to laugh b/c he starts his rant every time with 'hotsauce'! Anyways, his language is better, we're working on attitude now. Also I never had this problem with Addisyn, maybe boys just like to cuss!

A Story

Viewpoint #1-The paw-paw
A paw-paw takes his two young grandchildren to a track meet. When no one is looking the youngest, a boy, decides to relieve himself beside the sandpits. Paw-paw turns around and can't believe what he is seeing. His words later describe it as being about three feet of pressure. He then looks up and realizes it has happened right in front of a car full of old ladies. (Later it is discovered it is the paw-paw's ninety year old aunt.)

Viewpoint #2-The aunt
An aunt, upon walking up to work at a track meet, sees her young nephew relieving himself right in front of everybody. Then she sees paw-paw turn and around and freak out. Then she sees grandmama and tells her 'Look at what your grandson is doing!' The grandmama then freaks out. They decide to keep walking and pretend they do not know the said paw-paw and children. Later, the aunt is approached by a lady:
Lady- 'Do you have a son?'
Aunt- 'No.' (thinking I know where this is going)
Lady- 'Well, earlier I turn around and all I see is this white aXX!'

Viewpoint #3-The mother
When the mom is told of the incident-'Oh my gosh! Did anyone see?' um yeah.

Viewpoint #4-The dad
When dad is told of the incident- 'That is freakin' hilarious!!!'

The end.

A New Post!!!!

I am now 22 weeks!! Over half way there! AND after my last appointment I have now gained half the weight I need to the entire time!!! In five weeks, I gained alot...13. Can you read that? I hope not! Don't tell anyone!

We do have a name picked out, but I'm not going to post about it until closer to my due date. Hopefully, we'll still like it by then. With Karter we changed names about 2 months from my due date. I really like this one, so we will see.

We also have new neighbors. Where we live that usually means within a mile or so down the road, but these are in our front yard. My bil and sil and niece are building a house and they were able to sell their current house so they bought an RV and hooked it up. Their house is not started yet so it will probably be this fall until it's ready. I'm glad we have been able to help them. Hopefully we will all still like each other after all this! LOL

It's a....

GIRL! We are so excited and everything looks healthy!

Here's the conversation with Addi and Karter:

Me: Guess what! We found out what the baby is and it's a girl!!

Karter: Nooooooo

Addi: (nothing)

Me: Addi, you're going to have a baby sister!

Addi: Oh, yay!!!

Addi really is very excited. She has said all along that it's a baby sister. Last week she carried a baby doll everywhere and said it was her baby sister. We are so happy to know what it is and that everything was healthy. And no we have no names at this point. All we have been thinking of is boy names, so we will have to switch gears!

16 weeks

I had my 16 week appointment yesterday. I am not kidding when I say I exploded this weekend. I feel huge!!! So I was completely surprised when I only gained 1 pound not the 6 I was expecting. We heard the heartbeart and everything else was good. I feel great and Duane says I am glowing. :)

Our sonogram is on Feb. 15th. Maybe we can find out what it is and are praying for a healthy baby.

In Addi and Karter news, there is nothing like hearing them sing Jesus Loves Me together in the car. In warms my heart! I am so blessed!

My Hero

Karter walked into the kitchen the other morning proudly proclaiming "Got it! Got it!" and holding a dryer sheet pinched in two between his fingers.

I went over to see what he 'got'.....it was scary, nearly the biggest one I've ever seen...and he had it smushed real good and dead.

Loose black strings beware.....
