Water Fun

Sadie really enjoys playing with water on the deck. A few pieces of Tupperware, some measuring spoon and some sun block make for a happy girl. (The Walmart sticker is an extra bonus)

Another Funny Story

It seems Noelle is the funniest member of our family at the moment, so here is another funny story:
Last evening we had some friends over for dinner. They have a son Noelle's age named Zach. Partway through the night Noelle asked if she could offer Zach something to take home and borrow for a while. I thought this was a thoughtful and generous idea so I told her that would be fine.
Apparently the 'something' Noelle offered was a dress. Zach was more then willing to take the offered dress, but his dad told him that boys don't wear dresses. Zach wasn't put off, he simply asked Noelle if she had any boy dresses. Noelle quickly assured him that she did.

Miscellaneous Pictures

Here are some miscellaneous pictures I've been meaning to post:

Noelle's new room.

I painted it, my mom made the comforter and Brad helped me make the art 'clothesline.' The bed looks like it could use a headboard, but I guess that will come later.


Deck picnic
I ran some errands one morning and came home to this sweet scene


Cousins
Noelle and her Sauder cousins were enjoying a parade earlier in May. If you want to see what her Spence cousin does to her, visit my sister-in-laws blog and scroll all the way down.




Who's this girl on our deck?
Oh wait, that's Jacob Talbert in one of Noelle's sweatshirts.
Hee, Hee

Kid's Say the Darnedest Things

Last evening at small group Noelle said something cute that made everyone chuckle:
Heather Verst gave Noelle a nice compliment by saying "Noelle, your hair looks very nice tonight." Noelle replied very sweetly "Your welcome."

Then this morning Noelle said something that wasn't so cute, but I don't think she had any idea that the word she choose was very inappropriate so I chose to not draw attention to it:
We had our friend Melissa Talbert and her 2 kids over for a play date. I had draped a blanket over Noelle's little table so they could use it as a house or tent. I'm not sure what caused it but Noelle crawled into the 'house' and suddenly shouted "SH#*!" Melissa and I just stared at each other for a moment, a little shocked, and tried not to laugh too hard at Noelle's mistake.
