I can do it myself! Those are the words that Jack has started repeating time and time again. THat and "mama no help me". This really gets frustrating at times, for both of us. For me because it is usually when I am hurring to get somewhere. For him because he generally can't do it himself and it turns into a total meltdown!
So there is Jack, button up shirt upside down, trying to stick both feet in the same whole of his pants, and having a meltdown because none of it would work out for him!!!

Wow! I have had this blog almost 2 whole years, and being that this is my 200th post, I'm making it all about me! Cause I never talk about me lol!
Today was brick paver day! Jamie did the digging of the whole with help from a friend. I've helped load rocks in the whole for days. Today was the finishing day! It started with shoveling a ton and a half of dirt into the whole. I helped with about half of that. Then I helped pack it down, and moved most of the bricks to the driveway. And my fav part? I got to lay down most of the bricks! Jamie just got the pattern started and I went from there! Oh and I have proof! Here is me in my pretty blue dragonfly gloves! And thank goodness I put those on as there were a lot of bugs involved!!!

How much my Tay is like me. Take for instance yesterday, she is to make playdough for school, she has a recipe to follow. You cook it on the stove, but because the recipe never said to stir the playdough, she didn't and burnt the bottom of it. So then she stirred it lol.
That isn't all! SHe wanted to make an extra batch for extra credit. Well she didn't clean the pan out, so it had the burnt crusty stuff at the bottom. She did stir it this time around, which mixed the burnt crusty stuff in with the new playdough! I told her, see we didn't buy food coloring now you have cream with brown polka dot colored playdough!
She is a disaster in the kitchen just like her mom!!!
Oh and another, one of those nasty bugs with all the legs crawled out of the closet onto her, and she screams! I thought she was going to cry! lmao! I couldn't stop laughing and I had tears in my eyes! She said great, now you are probably going to put this on your blog!!!

Rock Band is in the house!!! Tay and Cam got it for their birthday and we are having a blast with it!!!! Tay's fav was the drums, until we got the mic working, now she is our main singer!!! She always told me she wanted to be a rock star, Tay's dream is coming true!!!! We had so much fun singing Ballroom Blitz, I sang it twice, and even got Tay to do it once, it was soooo funny! Cam has tried the drums a few times but still prefers his guitar, and refuses to sing for us hehe! Dad is all over the guitar and loves playing the bass! I've tried it all, but I have to admit I have the most fun singing as bad as it sounds!!! Of course Jack and Ella want to join in! Ella sat on my lap and helped me play drums tonight, but we failed!!!! Jack really likes hearing himself on the mic, and kept trying to steal it from everyone!
I told dad we could be like the Partridge family, of course without talent!!!
Choooo choooo train! That is Jack's 2nd birthday present, yes it is early, but he doesn't know the difference, all I know is that he LOVES it! He the box in the garage and went nuts! Daddy brought it in the house and was going to build it after he got back from picking up Tay and Cam but there was no waiting for Jack! I had to open the box and get some of the track and trains out! And he was very helpful when daddy was putting the table together!
He keeps saying "momma choochooo me" when he wants me to go play with him! It has been up 4 days now and the track is still built, I'm very suprised. So the choo choo table and train, big big hit in our house! I think I'm going to have to buy a few more choo choos for it though as Ella and Jack are always fighting over the few that we have!

Goodbye baby bed!!!
Jack is a big boy now, so time for a big boy bed! Last night I asked him if he would like to sleep in the big boy bed and his answer "uh huh", so off to the big boy bed!!! Of course nap time today was not as easy, so I asked Jamie to take down the baby bed today, figuring it would be better with no choice. And Cam is out of town, so it even if Jack puts up a fight, there is no sleep lost for Cam.
Here he is in his big boy bed today just before nap time, even though I think he ended up on the floor during nap time!
