His stylish outfit after church to go play in the backyard. He couldn't get shoes on over the feety jammies, so he got out the rubber boots. He makes this face all the time now. He hangs his tongue out whenever someone talks to him and he smiles at them-which of course means a chapped chin.


This is a robot, which actually looked cooler before it fell apart and got put back together again for the picture. Check out the ham in the background.

Life doesn't slow down or stop when you need it to. It's been another busy week. B and I were the only 2 parents who braved the freezing winds and dust storm on Mon. night at Bubba's game. Last night was pack meeting. The boys all made paper rockets and launched them in the parking lot with an air compressor. Then we shot candy at the end and most of the starburst flew right out of the wrappers. That got some laughs. Today was the Mother's Tea at pre-school. They dressed in men's shirts and ties and sang to us and served us chicken salad sandwiches and fruit and veggies and cream puffs. Super cute and fun. Peanut stood up and said, "I love my mom because she takes me to the park," and made me a placemat with a picture of a bumpy slide and heart on it. I'll have to take a picture of it and post it. Then we went over to the fun run at the boy's school. Every year they run laps and earn pledges to earn money for the school. This year since we moved to a brand new building, they're earning for playground equipment. JP felt like a failure because he only did 4 laps because he had to walk instead of run because his ankle was hurting really bad. I told him that was actually 2 miles, his best friend did the same amount and he should be proud of himself. A sweet little girl from his class walked the whole time with him. They got ice cream sandwiches and chocolate milk at the end. Bubba came out after that (they ran in shifts) and ended up with 9 laps or 4 1/2 miles. He ran most of that! Aren't you glad you didn't pledge per lap dad? JP had a game tonight that was a make up from Wed. since they cancelled due to the fact that it was windy and freezing. He has another one tomorrow at the complex where Bubba plays, so they get the chance to play where the big kids all play.
