Funny Things They Do and Say

I have realized that I haven't really been blogging about all the little things the boys do and say. I pretty much blog our daily activities. Oops!

A few nights ago the boys were getting ready for bed. Gavin was walking from him room to the bathroom to brush his teeth. He walked with his eyes closed and his arms straight out. I said, "Gavin, what are you doing?" He replies, "I'm walking sleeping." Oh, makes sense, doesn't it?! When Gavin climbed into bed, he was asleep within seconds.

Gavin has fallen a few times on the driveway. His poor knees have taken it a little hard. His boo-boos will heal and then the next day he falls (usually it's after trying to get a ball or something) again and we're back to the abrasions. To feel better, he thinks he needs to sit on the couch with a cookie and watch tv. One time he tried limping to the kitchen. It was cute. When he goes to bed the sheets must not touch his boo-boo and he must sleep on his back with his arms out. Yup!

When we play outside, Gavin prefers the baseball and bat, so he can hit the ball off the tee. Ian always goes for the basketball first. He'll play that for awhile and then changes over to his glove and bat to play some t-ball. Both have unbelieveable swings!

Ian has entered the I don't know what you call it stage for 6 year olds. He knows everything. He is good at trying to get his way. He is like me in many ways. One way is patience. Doesn't have a lot! LOL He can eat fruit all day long. LOVES all kinds of fruit. He loves fish sticks and steak. We have no idea where he puts it all. Ian is very interested in what has the most vitamins because he wants big muscles. He must stay busy at all times or he will get himself or his brother into trouble. He is into making paper airplanes right now. He likes to play games and put puzzles together (he does have patience for puzzles though). He can play the Wii quite well and would challenge anyone to a game. He knows how to do these moves that none of us know how to do.

We have a busy week coming up. Two t-ball games, VBS in the mornings for both boys, company for dinner one night and Uncle Jimi and Aunt Sandi are driving down to stay with my grandparents for a week. Then, we get ready for Maddy to arrive in the beginning of August followed by Jessica and the kids at the end of August/beginning of September. Hard to believe that school starts back up in a few weeks!
