Update on our crazy life...

Well I thought my life was crazy busy before some how the lord just loves to try and prove me wrong on a constant basis? I am trying to do the dating world scene and that alone is EXHAUSTING I'm worn out already and have only just really started trying to get into that scene I don't know how people do it? Then add in the fact that they just called me to be the Primary President in our ward. Yes I can hear you all laughing. Apparently the Lord has a sense of humor and so does my bishop and stake pres. I have said a million times obviously this was something that was not prayed about????

Then there are my little crazies who I love to death but, the youngest one if I live to see her turn 16 and start dating AUGH I'm scared to death. Let me just fill you in on the last few days of when I have picked up my kids from daycare. You probably remember Laken's video saying "She is going to marry Christian in a sparkly dress." Well she still talks about Christian and that he is her boyfriend, even though Christian does not go to daycare any more for the past 6 months? So the other day as we go to walk out some little boy says "Bye Girlfriend" I stand there stunned and Laken grins all embarrassed like she just got caught. She smiles and tells him bye. I said "Laken who was that?" She smiles and says "Oh mom that is just my boyfriend his name is Alexander." So I bring up Christan and say what about him? She says "Well I just have two boyfriends now and I am going to marry them when I am tall, tall, tall in a sparkly dress." Of course I'm dying laughing by this point and thinking heaven help me with this child. The following day I pick her up and now two little boys wave and say "Bye Girlfriend" I look at her again stunned and she literally puts her hands on her hips and looks at me and says "Mom we will talk about it in the car." Hello little 4 year old who thinks she is 30??? The daycare director heard her and busted out laughing. I said what did you just say and she rolled her eyes and says "Come on mom I will tell you in the car." Yeah you all try and keep a straight face while all the other parents and teachers are laughing. So we go to the car and I say "Okay little Missy start talking." She grins and says "well Mom now I have 4 boyfriends." I said "what?" she says "Yeah, Christian is my boyfriend, and Alexander, Johnnie, and Quincy and I am going to marry them." Can you say Polygamist in reverse? Seriously heaven help me with this child she is 4 and has all the little boys bending over backwards for her at school. We know she did not learn this from her mother maybe she can give me a few pointers? All of you that are laughing about this I am sending her to live with you when she turns 16 and starts dating. That girl scares me to death!!!!!

"Holy Crap..."

Life at my house is never a dull moment and Laken usually always is saying some little smart mouth comment to go along with that feisty little redheaded attitude. But, tonight at dinner we had Chinese Chicken Salad for Dinner and she just keep staring at it and I finally said Laken you have to eat at least the chicken in your salad. She looks at it and then says "Holy Crap there are worms in it." Of course immediately my mother and I are in tears laughing and she keeps going "Oh Crap worms are crawling all over my chicken." She was convinced that Rice Noodles were worms and convinced we were trying to get her to eat worms. She just kept saying "I don't want to eat worms."

BUGS!

So we have a new great bishop who I have to say does he not look like he should be a movie star even down to his name he was born and raised in the south of France. Anyways he is a great guy and awesome with my kids one Sunday night he just showed up and wanted to share part of his bug collection with the kids. Too funny a grown man that gets so excited over the "beauty and art of what a bug looks like." I have to admit though he did have some really cool bugs that were pretty amazing.
