Ok...so it's 11:34 and I've spent the past hour or so building my new blog spot. I couldn't quite do facebook or my space but somehow this seems ok.
So...KTB and Emily Smith are visiting for a long weekend - lots of Guitar Hero - I think I hit a mid-life crisis about time they pulled in the driveway. Last night, we dyed my hair blonde. Tonight, we dyed it even blonder. I mean, really blonde. A hint of strawberry blonde - hilarious.
That's all really. More to come.

About Me
BORING...
After watching our 2 dogs rough house and play for a few minutes one morning, Eli leans onto the counter, blows out some air and says:
"Being human is soooooo boring."
"Being human is soooooo boring."
After 5 hours of riding in the car....
Asa: Eli, What's your favorite color?
E: Red & Blue
Asa: NO ELI!! What's your ONE favorite color?
E: Red
Silence.
Asa: Well, what's your other favorite color?
E: Blue
E: Red & Blue
Asa: NO ELI!! What's your ONE favorite color?
E: Red
Silence.
Asa: Well, what's your other favorite color?
E: Blue
Overheard After Bedtime
The boys are laying in their beds.
Asa: "E, are you asleep?"
E: "Yeah, I'm already asleep."
Hmmmm.
Asa: "E, are you asleep?"
E: "Yeah, I'm already asleep."
Hmmmm.
Talking in E's sleep
'Gnarly Dude!"
'Look! Look at this! Now you see it, now you don't. It disappeared.'
Eli talking in his sleep.
'Look! Look at this! Now you see it, now you don't. It disappeared.'
Eli talking in his sleep.
No Parking!!
After stopping at a gas station along a busy but 2 lane highway, we slowed to pull out. There were about 6 'No Parking' symbols posted on regular signs along the road from the gas station to the actual ramp back to the Interstate. While we waited to turn, Asa says 'Mom, how come No 'P's are allowed?
Mis-generalizations
After a conversation about where to 'kick' someone if they were trying to hurt you, Asa decidely tells Eli one day: "Eli, if you really want to hurt someone you either shoot them in the head or the peepee."
We didn't even bring up the shooting part! I swear, we aren't teaching them this stuff on purpose!!!!
Perseverance - Conversations from the backseat:
Eli: Hey Asa! Let's play SuperHeros! I'm Batman!
Asa: But I want to be Batman!
Silence.
Asa: Hey Eli, maybe you could be Superman?
Eli: Nope, I wanna be Batman.
Silence.
Asa: Hey E! Let's play Batman & Robin!
E: Ok! Yea! I'm Batman.
Asa: No, you be Robin.
E: Nope, I'm Batman.
Silence:
Mom from the front seat: How about Spiderman? (to no one in particular)
E: Yea! Spiderman and Batman! I'm Batman.
Silence:
Asa: Hey E, how about Scooby Doo and Batman? You be Scooby Doo.
E: Nope, I'm Batman. You be Scooby-Doo.
Hopefully, we can harness the perseverance (in both of them!!!!) for great things in the Lord!
Cute worm, dead worm, yucky worm...
Upon leaving the house for school this morning, we came upon an almost dead worm on our walkway. Asa said, 'Look! A worm!"
Eli looked down and said 'Aaaaawwwwhhhhh, look at the cute worm." And then a millisecond later he stomped on it as hard as he could, 'And said 'I killed it!!!!" And then another millisecond later, he realized the worm was still stuck on the bottom of his shoe and he started jumping up and down hysterically shouting ' "The worm's on my shoe! The worm's on my shoe! Mom! The worm's on my shoe!"
A day in the life of a 4-year old boy.
Quote for the Day
"Dear God, Thank you for this food, our family, and all the animals we like. Except for snakes and alligators. Amen"
Asa at dinner time prayer
Quote for Today
E: Mom, I don't like that boy.
A: Why not?
E: Because he be's a pirate and I just don't like that.
Eli referring to a little boy in carpool line.
Quote for the Day
'M-o-m, Eli's calling me a KetchupHead.'

Quote for the Day:
'Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!! I have a sharp knife! I have a sharp knife!"

Good to see that you made it to the world of bloggers as well. That KTB is so influential...Anyway, hope all is well and hope to come visit you guys soon!!
I love to laugh. And you have deprived the blogosphere of your wit and the antics of your boys for quite long enough.
I can't wait to see your hair. Now I definitely need to come visit!! :)
I'm so glad I could be a part of your mid-life (yea right) crisis... (and wear rubber gloves through the process!) You're a fun friend and thanks again for having us this weekend. I'll be back soon! (with guitar hero - cause I know you wouldn't let me in the door w/o it)
:) LOVE!
