Graces Check-up

Grace had to have her 5 year old check-up for school. She had to have her eyes checked, her hearing checked, a physical and 4 shots (worst experience). When she had her hearing checked, she got to wear headphones, and hold a little button. The nurse told her to push the button when she heard a noise. The nurse then pushed a few buttons and asked Grace if she heard anything - she said no. This went on for about 4 times. I was getting really nervous - my daughter can't hear. Then the nurse said again, can you hear anything and Grace said, I just hear a beeping. Oh good - Grace that is what you are supposed to hear - and then the button pushing began. I am happy to report her hearing is great, her eyes are great, and her mother is traumatized from the shots.

Sweet Man

Sometimes Jack says the sweetest things in a way only Jack can.
Tonight I was busy making dinner and Jack asked me to 'hold you me', he wanted me to hold him. I told him I couldn't cause I was making dinner. Then he said, I wish you had 8 arms, so you could hold you me, and make dinner. How can you not love that?

February 12, 2012

Yesterday Jack said his very first prayer in Primary. He got to stand on a chair and talk into a microphone. The primary president helped him, he did a good job. After he was finished, all the kids in primary clapped. Someone had said that was his first prayer in primary, so I guess that called for an applause. One of the counselors came up to me as I was leaving and told me that was the first time there was clapping in primary. I guess Jack is pretty special.

His Hair Wasn't The Only Thing Red

Jack came into Clint and I, and said that his bottom hurt, it really hurt. So I thought maybe his bottom wasn't wiped good and I told him to go into my bathroom and get a wipe and wipe his butt. He came out much later with no pants on saying his bottom still hurt, while carrying a tub of clorox disinfecting wipes. I told him those were the wrong ones, he needed to use the baby wipes, and he told us those weren't strong enough. He then started to kind of scream in pain. His pore little butt was so red. Clint put him in the bath and that seemed to help. Jack does some pretty funny things, but burning his bottom with disinfecting wipes is probably one of the funniest.

Gesundheit

The other day Jack sneezed, and then said....
That was a big bless you.
I guess my son doesn't sneeze, he bless you's.

I Just Want 30 Seconds

So, I am in the bathroom, and Grace comes in and looks at me and asks me what I am doing? What does it look like I am doing - I am peeing! I have worked here for almost 5 years, I think I deserve a potty break.

Worth a Thousand Words


Jack came to me and mumbled something about the fridge and making something cool. I wasn't really paying attention. Then I heard him in the fridge again, and saying something about making something cold. And then it registered what he was talking about....
My son put our kittens in the refrigerator. We had a talk.
I am thinking I may need to start another blog dedicated to just Jack and our cats. Jack and the tale of two tails - what do you think?
