Sunday Activitys

So I don't have any pictures but I thought that I would share what we did this Sunday. I don't know about all of you but I find it hard sometimes to think of things to do on Sunday's with my kids. Well I don't know if it is appropriate but today Ethan, Maggie, and I ambushed Rene' with snowballs. That's right Snowballs. They are not real snowballs they are just soft fluffy white things that you can throw as hard as you want and they don't hurt. Anyway while Rene was talking on the phone to her mom the three of us decided to attack. It worked really well, I would throw them and Ethan would fetch them, with Maggie in the background sucking on them. (to make them seem more life like.) It continued to work until Rene' finished her telephone call and then the war was on.

With each of us hiding beside our side of the bed, we attacked each other with no mercy. The battle raged on between us and helping to keep things even was Ethan, allying with who ever had the most snowballs. In the end we decided that the winner depended on how you look at it. If you look at who got hit the least then Maggie was the winner. If you look at who was on the winning side the longest it was Ethan. Either way all we know is that Rene' and I didn't win. But we sure had fun.

Our first first

So I know that I missed a week, Sorry. Last week was the first day of Ethan's joy school. He was excited to go but I would have to say that Rene' was much more excited for him to go. She had all of his cloths picked out (then found out they were going to paint and abruptly changed them). She talked about it non stop with him for days before hand.
The first day Rene' asked me if other kids had backpacks. After I responded to the affirmative she immediately ran to the store to get Ethan a backpack, even if it does go to his knees.
Today Maggie got to try a chocolate animal cracker. We thought it would keep her busy while we ate dinner and well.... We were right.

Just for those of you wondering it is an animal cracker not poo. On a side note we are trying to potty train Ethan and as part of that he gets to watch daddy use the potty. So as I was peeing Ethan looks at me and asks "what are you doing daddy?", "I'm using the potty" was my response. His next question immediately comes "what happens when the poop comes?" Needless to say I had a very hard time keeping the pee aimed straight. I did reassure him that when the poop comes I sit down on the potty.
