Crazy Kids

Kaleb has gone to preschool a total of four times and he is already trying to hitch a ride home with people! So I went to pick up Kaleb and before I got there he had asked Sidni Nielson (Kaleb's friend's mom--and my friend) if he could hitch a ride home! I wish I was there to hear him say that! I don't use the word "hitch" so it really cracked me up. . . ."hey, can I hitch a ride with you guys?" This is a preschooler!

Sidni asked the teacher how Tanner and Kaleb were doing on being quiet, and the teacher said they did really good that day and that she didn't even have to split them up! What!? She has been having to split them up because they are so noisy! It can't come from me. I was super shy. . must come from Mitch... Oh wait. Mitch was so shy and quiet that he ended repeating preschool!

Anyway, Kayden has been having fun sticking things in places. A few months ago it was potatoes. He found where I put them and would take them and hide them. I would find them all over the house. If something was starting to stink, I new it had to be a potato somewhere. Lately he has been more interested in the toilet and the oven. Kayden once got all my rolls of toilet paper and stuck them in the toilet and put them back in the drawer! I only knew that he had dipped them in the toilet because he left four rolls in the toilet. Apparently there was not enough room for all 12 rolls so put them back in the drawer dripping wet. Yesterday we had another fun incident! Kaleb brought home from preschool bread dough (his teacher is so fun!). I turned the oven on and stuck it in, and when it was done I had another surprise-- A melted glop (previously a magnetic toy ball) on the bottom of the oven. Apparently magnets can melt!
I thought I'd include in the picture of what the ball use to look like. The upside is that it was fairly easy to clean up--except for the wax that was all over the racks.

Well. . . All you with only babies now have something to look forward to!

Here are a couple of pictures of Kayden, Kaleb, and their cousin Alex.

you forgot to mention the reason why it was so "easy" for you to clean the oven...maybe it was b/c your loving husband took care of it!! :P

What does melted magnet smell like? It can't be good for you. . . .

Are you sure it is the potatos that are stinking? My experiences would lead me to believe it was Mitch.

kids definately keep life interesting. I can't believe Devin actually commented on a blog. How funny.

I love it!!!! Kids are so funny! I will have to tell you about Tanner's latest adventure in Pre school. Its one for the journal. One time I went to turn on the oven to pre-heat, I had a feeling to look in. I found about 10 random shoes in there. Ohhhhh thank goodness for mother's intution!

Cute!!! That's hilarious, he's already "hitching" a ride home, you know it won't surprise me if Katelyn starts talking about the other kind of getting "hitched"! And yes, she still wants to marry Kaleb! By the way, you've been tagged! Check out my blog to see what to do, and if you don't feel like playing tag, no pressure!

Ale! It's been a while. You look so busy and fun and happy. And you're as beautiful as ever! How did you manage a trip to Venezuela with 2 kids and no husband?! I'd like to say "hope to see you soon," but I don't know when that will ever happen since we don't live by anybody that cool, so I'll just say see you later!
