What we've been doing............

Greg has the joy and honor of being in yet another exercise! (Really there's nothing joyous about it, I was being a little sarcastic). An exercise is when they practice/pretend what will happen IF North Korea ever strikes. Greg gets to wear all of this gear, and the kids find it intriguing. They usually want to try it on; Jordan always wants to know where the gun is. Back to NK striking SK, don't worry people, it's very unlikely that would happen!

I was in the kitchen, doing something I'm sure; I wanted to get a handful of blueberries, but found that they were no longer where I had left them. My first thought was that maybe one of the kids did something with them; wonder why I thought that? As I turn into their room, there's Jordan, with the colander of blueberries, just chowing down. Too funny, he's the blueberry thief!

This is what Greg has been doing; Jordan calls it the tractor puzzle (nothing like calling it exactly what it is!) My parents gave this to him a year and a half ago, because he really likes tractors. For the last several months, he's been asking daily of he could "do this puzzle." What we couldn't get him to understand was that it has over 1000 pieces, and that he can't just sit down and do it; try getting that through his little hard head! After much begging and pleading, Greg decided to make Jordan's dream come true. He's been working hard, and Jordan is delighted. He "helps " Greg every day; I must say that I love the way kids "help" and I think Greg does too! Once this is completed, it will be framed, and it will hang in Jordan's room, and we will be proud of Daddy and Jordan's hard work!

I've been sewing; I'll try to post pictures soon. I'm on a roll again! And just today, Jamison started crawling; he figured out how to move his legs, and did it a couple of times.........things will be crazy before too much longer!
