interesting conversation at dinner

interesting conversation at dinner

tonight at dinner I heard an interesting conversation between Ethan and Ava:
(changing name to protect the innocent just in case)

Ethan: "That grl "Amy" in my class, her mean to me and my friend."

Ava: "What did she do to you?"

Ethan: "Her kick me and stick out her tongue at me."

Ava: "Well we don't do that, this is what you need to do. Go to her and say in a nice voice "Amy, kicking and sticking your tongue out at me is not kind. Please don't do it anymore."
Don't say it in a mean way like this,"AMY YOU ARE MEAN AND BAD AND RUDE!"
and don't ball up your fist and hit her in the nose.

Ethan: "ok"

the loves of my life

the loves of my life




Ava Grace!


What a name, what a girl! When she sings people stop to listen, when she laughs you have to laugh too. Ava, you are an angel with the sweetest heart but you can stand on your own (you got a lot of your daddy in you!) You are very smart and eager to learn- I am not sure I know any 5 year old that can play chess and actually win! Your beauty is breathtaking and your smile melts my heart- You are my angel and I love you!





Ethan Wallace!


My little man. You are the most kind hearted little boy I know- You could not hurt a fly. This is the first picture I have of you in about a year smiling when you see a camera you get so serious. You are so quiet and shy and you always say, "Mom, I need to give you a big hug and kiss." I love the little cute things you say- "Mom when am I going to change 4?" You are so innocent and loving- Tonight you looked at Cullen and said "Cullen, you are my best friend!" I know that came straight from your heart- you will always be my little man! I love you.






My Blonde Bear!


Oh, that smile gets me every time! You know you have me wrapped around your little finger- I can't stand to hear you cry, it breaks my heart. I love getting "Cullen kisses", you open your mouth wide and drool starts to drop and then you just attack! Your laugh is so sweet - I love when you get in bed with me in the morning and we snuggle- You are so happy. Daddy calls you "smiley" because you are always smiling- you love being outside and getting attention- (just like your sister). I love you with all my heart!



oh how could I forget nathan...... so many things I could say, some I can't blog about:) but to keep it short and sweet..you are my best friend and I love you!

oh, blonde bear......

oh, blonde bear.....

your happy little world as you know it is coming to an end. Nursing whenever you want will be no more. Yes, I have started to wean Cullen- and today was a battle. I will admit I have spoiled him- so I can't get upset when he throws one of his "evans' fits" and sticks out his bottom lip. I wanted to give in b/c he was so pitiful- but I did not and he finally took the bottle of formula.
I am sorry my little blonde bear but it is time.......
