A day in the life of Jacob

I sure do love this little boy. Today he said some really funny things.

I was putting him the car and asked him if he wanted a happy meal. He said "what if they called a happy meal a sad meal that would be funny!"

When we got home and he is eating his happy/sad meal he said " mom did you know aliens don't have butts?" Laughing, I say "oh really who told you that?" "Nobody I just know it" Ok, that was random!!

Tonight Bobby finally showed me how to use the ban saw so I can cut out wood letters. He didn't want to show me for fear I would cut myself (i'm bad at that!!).
Jacob must of heard some form of the converstation because when I came in the house after my trial run, he "so mom, you didn't cut yourself!!!" He said it in a really high pitched and excited voice and it was really funny!!

Kyra made up a new joke. What do you call tape with feathers? give up? Duct tape
I can't believe she made that up. Kids are so funny!

I'm weird- I know!!

I thought I was really clever and smart by putting the songs on my blog. At first I really liked it but after awhile I started to have anxiety about it and I can't pin point why. I tried forever to get them off and finally figured it out. I still feel a little bit of anxiety when my blog is loading--- see it is official I am wierd. Oh well. Maybe next time I will put on lovely music instead of Pink- maybe that was it-- I don't know.

Smoothies

Abbey brought a recipe for smoothies home from school. I decided to humor her and make some. Now, it has become an everyday occurance and a family favorite.
Here are all the flavors we've tried.
Orange (orange juice)
banana
raspberrry
Sunny delight
grape
caramel
chocolate

Abbey's favorite: Sunny delight
Kyra's: chocolate
Bobby's: whatever flavor we are having
Trevor's: caramel (won't touch the fruit ones)
(maybe he'd eat it if I put in cauliflower-he loves that stuff-- gross!)
Mine: raspberry and banana

Next I am trying chocolate raspberry. The great thing is that the fruit smoothies are good for you (except for the sugar). We are getting really sofisticated now too! Bobby found a smoothie maker at DI to make them better. I took a picture of the ice cream bucket. Every time Bobby asks me to buy ice cream I grumble because it never gets eaten. I found out how to get rid of it---Smoothies!!
