Right now Levi is real big into letting us know if he hears someone say something "naughty". Yet at the same time he himself is real quick to say something "naughty" to someone (his brothers) if they make him mad. When I say "naughty" some of the words are...Poop, Meanie, Dumb, Butt, etc.. Nothing too major, yet words we are trying to discourage Levi from saying. When Levi does say one of those "naughty" words to someone we tell him he can't call people names. So now whenever he hears someone say a "naughty" word he says,
"you called names".Yesterday Ethan, Levi, and I are in the grocery store. I don't even remember how it all exactly happened, however I said something like this to Ethan..."
but we are going to get this one instead..." Right away Levi starts saying
"you called names...you called names". So I say I did not and he says..."you said butt!"
Lovely. Yes, how do you even begin to explain the differences between but and butt to an almost 3 year old? Meanwhile Ethan is just laughing and giggling away!! :)
One of their favorite things to make is Pretzels!
It's always fun to roll huge, long "snakes".
The hardest part is waiting...
but before you know it they are ready to eat!
The recipe makes a bunch, so if ever you want a pretzel come on over!
SNOW
They have been outside every day since
sliding, snowboarding, making snowmen, and shoveling!!
They just love it and can't wait for more snow to come!!
...with (Betsey's sister) Kate and Josh on their Engagement!!
So how does a 2 1/2 year old break their arm?
Try riding a bike down a flight of stairs...
Today we were at the Children's Museum and Levi was doing a great job with sharing toys. Each time he would share something with another child he would then walk up to me and say...
This was done by some people from Mars Hill...go Waterprize!!
This was their other favorite...the longer you looked the more animals you found!
Levi finally woke up...he had napped in the stroller while we walked around ArtPrize all afternoon.
...our boys had SO much fun out on the dance floor!!
Ethan going for the goal!
