My Crazy Kids

Here is Cobe (a.k.a. John Lennon) this morning singing "Imagine."





Here is Sadie the other day thinking she was a movie star. I just realized she is in the John Lennon glasses as well.


And here is Brooks this morning before church. Hmmm... don't really know what to call this contraption- I think it is Ryan's gas mask????


Well there you have it- crazy, crazy kids. They have so many of their father's qualities. Haha

This weekend was fun! The kids had so much fun Friday night and Saturday morning with the Boeve girls. Then Saturday morning, Cobe's soccer took an unexpected twist. They were supposed to have a game, but the other team canceled for some reason, so the coach said families could play since they had the hour at the Soccer Stop anyway. So Lynette kept Sadie, and we took Landon with us and headed to the Soccer Stop. 9 of Cobe's teammates showed up plus a few friends and family members, so we all got to play around on the field. Brooks thought he was something else getting to play "on Cobe's team." He took it very seriously. Ryan played goalie while the kids did a bunch of drills, and all of us non-team members played down at the other end of the field. The last 20 minutes or so, they all scrimmaged, and Brooks got to play in that game as well. It was a lot of fun. Of course my ancient body is sore today from all the running, kicking, and FALLING I did out on the field, but it was worth it.

When we got home, I went to Sam's Club to pick up a few groceries. I came home and had just showered, when Cobe came in crying from outside. He seemed to be in quite a bit of pain. He had fallen off our huge snowpile onto the driveway on his wrist- the same wrist he broke last year. He was miserable- couldn't move it at all. So Ryan ran Landon home, and said we'd decide what to do about Cobe when he got back. Cobe still seemed to be in a lot of pain an hour after he fell, so Ryan took him to the emergency room. Cobe kept saying he didn't think it was broken, and it didn't hurt as bad as when he broke it before, but we thought we better be safe than sorry. Turns out we should have listened to Cobe. He just sprained it (thank goodness!). So after x-rays, they headed back home. Cobe was remarkably better already. At least now we'll know that he should be able to tell the difference between a break and a minor injury. He is quite the drama king when he gets hurt!!!!!!!!!

We left for Bar Divani after thinking we may not get to go after Cobe's disaster, and had a great time. The food there is amazing and so are the drinks. We ate, had a few drinks, and went back to the Boeve's for ice cream dessert. Yum! It was a fun birthday celebration-thanks for providing an opportunity for a great night out Lisa!

Today Sadie was a complete wacko at church. She would not sit still and would not leave Chad and Lisa alone. She was all up in their faces and eating all their candy the whole service. At one point, she had come over to sit in Ryan's lap, and she looked at me and said, "I'm going to get Booty." (She calls Boeve Booty for some reason). So she scales over my lap and Lisa's lap and just bites Boeve's shoulder then instantly bites his leg. She thought she was so funny. It came out of nowhere so we were all laughing. Boeve was quite shocked. Needless to say, it was very hard to concentrate on the sermon today. The music was great though!

We came home, made up some delicious fajita's and the boys all went to Community Church to meet Matt and some guys for basketball. When they get home, Lynette and I are going to run out and shop a little and then head to our health class tonight. Tomorrow night we are going to Ryan's parents for dinner before I go to BSF. And the regular busy week begins again.

Crazy kids is right I love it! Glad Cobe's arm was alright! Have a good week!

Wow.... wow. Even *reading* about life with three kids makes me tired... how do you do it?!

Lynette said...

A little shopping isn't quite the right words. I tried everything on when I got home and Matt kept saying... "There's more????"! I do have some returns though!

Love the Lennon look. Especially the crooked glasses!! Glad Cobe didn't rebreak his wrist. Luckily we haven't broken anything except Knox's head last year :)
Loved the pics of your parents up there. I am sure everyone has a good time when they visit.
