Funny moment

So I was getting Grant dressed and realized he had a rash so I left his diaper off and ran downstairs to grab cream. Well, sure enough the boys start screaming. MOM, Grant went stinkies on the carpet!!! I started heading upstairs and I could hear Joseph dry heaving. I told him, "Get AWAY from the stinkies! Don't throw up!" His response was, "Mom, (cough cough), I think I'm allergic to stinkies" Sure enough, Grant had smeared stinkies all over the carpet. Wow, destruction can happen fast when you are dealing with little boys!

more funny quotes

1. Wayne gave a lesson for family night on faith and testimony. We decided to have the boys practice bearing their testimony. Wayne and I went first and then Joseph went. His went something like this, "I'd like to bear my testimony that I love church because of German pancakes and crepes." Well, it was hard not to laugh, but when we did he looked at us like, "I'm serious, why are you laughing?" He continued on to bear a normal testimony after with your typical, "the prophet is true, the scriptures are true..." Afterwards, we realized that he associated German pancakes and crepes with Sunday because that's the day we usually make them. It was so funny! Derek followed up by bearing his testimony. His also started out funny. "I'd like to bear my testimony that when we eat we need to keep the table clean and not make messes!"(We had just had a family council on this) He was also super serious and then went on to bear a normal testimony. I seriously couldn't help it! I was laughing so hard! 2. So Grant is really starting to enjoy books. He loves animal books and of COURSE cars, trucks, and train books. Yesterday he found a lightening McQueen book and was pointing to a page and and said "Oh Wow!" Then he turned the page and AGAIN, "Oh wow!" he just kept going and going. "Oh wow!" It was so cute! 3. Also yesterday, I was reading books to Derek and my eyes started getting heavy so after I finished I dozed off on the couch. Derek went off to play computer games and Grant was just in the family room playing with cars and trains. Well, I fell into a deeper sleep than expected and when I woke up, the house was silent. I went in and asked Derek where Grant was, he had no idea. I went upstairs and finally found him in the office with another car book. He didn't see me, but I saw him pointing to each car and saying, "Car, brrrrroooom, car, brrrooom, car, brroooom," over and over and over. I was thinking, how long has he been doing this? 4. So yesterday Derek told me he had a dream that I had a baby in my tummy. Well, not true, YET. Hopefully it's a vision of things to come;)

quotes of the week!

1. Grant is starting to say more words and has a new obsession with trains. He is really good at saying "Choo Choo!" Derek noticed his increase in speech and stated, "Mom, Grant speaks human now!" 2. Wayne brought home some freshly picked cotton and the boys have spent all evening picking out the seeds. They are planning on stuffing it in their pillow pets and dogs that are falling apart and losing their fluff. I commented on how hard they were working and Derek says, "Yes, we aren't even getting tired!" (It's been close to 2 hours) Joseph's reply, "Yeah, it's called stamina!"
