Sunbeam Success!

Today Isaac's new Sunbeams teacher told John that Isaac did extremely well in class today. (After John told me this, I asked if he saw Cade at church...hmm, me neither...and Ben wasn't there either...)

The success, though, is that Isaac had a footstep cut out of paper, which had the words "I will follow Jesus" written on it and a little crayon scribble of something. I asked Isaac what it was, and he replied, "It's following Jesus!" and then was distracted by something else.

He also had a little hat with the same words. And he let Jeremiah wear it for hours after church today. He's becoming a very sweet, obedient, sharing 4 year-old.

Relaxing Game

I wanted something relatively brainless to do before I went to bed (for relaxation/destressing/whatever), and this is what John came up with.

9 Months Old

Today was Danielle's 9 month well-baby exam. (She's only had well-baby appointments, which is great!) And, pretty much, she's perfect. Her growth curve is pretty much straight on, the nurse wasn't concerned about her not eating "baby foods," she's doing everything she's supposed to be doing, including pulling to standing and beginning to "cruise" along the furniture.

And Danielle being 9 months old means...only 3 more months until Christmas!

Sharing

Today in Primary, the children were learning about sharing. The teacher told a story where she gave a pair of her shoes to a lady who didn't have any shoes, and then asked the children what they could do to share their things to help others.

Isaac's friend said, "I can share my green talking dinosaur with another kid!"

(He was sitting behind us in Sacrament meeting and Jeremiah turned, saw the dinosaur, and grabbed it really fast. The boys parents subtly convinced him to share for a few minutes.)

Then Isaac spoke up, "I can share my toys!"

He then gave James a "look" across the room, and continued, "James can share his toys too."

Nod of Approval

I had made brownies earlier in the evening, and right before bedtime came into the kitchen to find...


Cute kid.

Excuse the slight cross-eyed-ness. When his glasses are on it's not as bad as without them.

And please excuse the time on the clock. Yes, it was the correct time. And very much after bedtime. :)

Bananas for bananas!

So, this is my 3,000 word essay...

About half of her food ends up inside of her. So I eat half a banana, she eats a quarter of a banana, and she distributes the rest as she sees fit. (It doesn't show up well in the pictures, but her left eyelashes are covered with banana-goo.)

Isaac helped (he moves, I shoot)
