64 deer challenge....

....tonight we went on our annual Christmas deer hunt. We used to take a nice relaxing trip around town stopping first at Ampride to get a cup of hot cocoa. Now we have spit flying and lots of screaming when we come upon a deer!!







*come on kara, i know you want to compete with us to see if you can find more deer*

a moose

I think this story was one of those that you needed to hear to think it was funny. Since this is kind of my "scrapbook" I wanted to document it. Jack was telling a 10 minute story (maybe a bit exaggerated) about a moose who kept bonking his head on a bucket. He thought it was the most hilarious story ever. When the story was over Tyse said "Jack that's not true"... Jack says... "yea but it was funny." Tyse is alot like me in a way that he typically has no problem saying how he really feels.

Hi!! My name is....

....Jack and I still use a sippy cup. Yep it's true!! Jack will be 3 in January and he still uses a sippy cup. No, not just at nap time or bed time, pretty much whenever he wants. I really don't care cause there are other things I'd rather worry about. Now with Andrew it would have been a different story. Say I was browsing the internet and I read somewhere that a baby should be done with a sippy cup at 18 months then that was it....I would have taken it away from him that night. With old age and 2 more boys I have learned to go with the flow unless it is hurting them or someone else. I'm beginning to think this sippy cup addiction may be hurtful to him. You see, when he has his cup he also wants his pup (stuffed dog) and he loves to twirl his hair. Here is what happened the other night. His finger was actually stuck in his hair!!

Andrew took the little boys upstairs after bath time and they came down like this....

Yes, that's toothpaste!!

I never have to ask Tyse if he has brushed his teeth....somehow I always know.
