A Very Rainy Day

Da boiz
Since Rachel posted about recent boys' antics, I thought I'd post this picture that we took on Sunday when they were both dressed up after the annual primary program (when all the kids under 12 have little speaking parts and sing children's hymns for the entire main service).
Here they are in their normal mode, cruising in Sam's "big" birthday present. They've been honing their skills on the neighbor's John Deere tractor, and Rachel found this killer deal on Craigslist for $90. They bumped it that low because the battery was shot, but we got one shipped to us from ebay for $35! (and4-yr olds just don't care as long as it works!)

My Boys
Two stories, one about Sam, one about Jonah.
Sam-
Today was a normal day. I was getting bills paid and organized and he was watching tv. I put the bills, all ready to be mailed out, by the door (like I always do). I told Sam I was going up to take a shower. After my shower I heard him yell up to me "Mom, I opened all the mail!". Yeah, he opened all the bills, and NOT carefully! Ripped open! At least, by some miracle, he didn't rip any checks.
Jonah-
I got a letter from school on Friday that Jonah was out of money in his lunch account. How could this be I wondered since I budget out 2 meals a week from school and he brings his lunch the other days. I checked online to see the meal history, what he had bought with the money (which I didn't know about before this incident). He has been buying breakfast at school, 10 days of breakfast were on there! And yes, he does eat breakfast at home before he goes to school!

Happy Birthday Sam!
Some things Sam likes;
- Spider-man-loves to wear his spider man shirt (sometimes two Spider-man shirts at the same time)
- corn dogs (he says "hot dog corn")
- riding bikes
- juice, any kind, he has a two cup a day limit that he fights every day
- digging and crashing cars and trains (in the winter we fill a tray with cornmeal and he crashes things in that)
- Scooby Doo (and Shaggy too!)
- trying new foods, he always has to try what I'm having even if he finds out he doesn't like it, not a bad quality
- playing outside with Jonah and our neighbor friends
- Watching a movie with Bekah, and eating popcorn
- Playing with boats in the kitchen sink, this never gets old
- Loves to help make cookies (and then wants to crash things in the flour and sugar)
- Did I mentions he likes to crash things?!
