rex doesn't understand why i can't post : ) i've closed my computer 3 or 4 times this week. he says it's not his fault.
i never said it was : )
we're on the road this morning. a last minute sunday road trip. chad's little car seat toy giraffe is swinging. the kids are quiet actually. molly is yawning. regan is asking 'how far we are going, mommy?' and telling me chady is awake.
so here we are - we're going to post!
- - -
chady & i had quiet morning yesterday.
i ate the rest of the pumpkin pie for breakfast, he had a rare saturday morning bath.
then we washed mountains of dishes & killed more flies than should be allowed in a barn let alone a house!
- - -
rex had a birthday this week ..... he says today is technically still part of birthday week.
we'll see what we can do : )

this is one of my favorite pictures of the month so far - after they ran one morning we drove the same distance to make sure it was a mile. they rode in the back to cool off.
- - -
he caught me - my efforts to keep the floors clean now go hand in hand with my efforts to keep chad from choking : )
- - -
we're here - so we'll be back.

hi, again. i know you're just reading the next line but we've been busy.
there were outlets.
: ) that was good ..... and bad.
and a baptism - it was beautiful. she cried & we clapped & cried a little too.
right now molly is the reporter & regan is who she's interviewing. she's just asked her 'where did you come from?' regs answered 'from my mom & dad.' rex is all yep! but molly was looking more for if she was from north dakota or ohio. next she asked what her middle name is - to which she replied reggy roo pop rodgers. again rex asked if we should tell her her middle name is actually rose & not roo pop.
not yet : )
we just passed a 57 bel air hard top, he called it pretty.
we're passing an air force base & following an old dodge truck with a dog sitting by the man driving.
molly just said she has to go to the bathroom & i just gave her my phone with a game. and then right after that gave i rex's to regan.
haven't ever done that so deliberately before.
sailor likes the song on the radio.
the whole phone games are not going over so well .... according to some, others are 'out of his control'
we just passed a fire truck on the side of the road ..... there was a swather in the corn field that looked like it had caught on fire. it was a great picture - tractors, farmer, half cut dried corn, with a fireman in all his gear walking back to the road.

it was a waffle wednesday this week!

we roasted pumpkin seeds from a real pumpkin. thank you for being impressed : )

it'd been awhile since we'd been to the cows. it was a good trip.
there were 'we need to fix your hair' stops.
i love watching them just be them -
it was really that dusty. my line was 'keep running regan' while i briskly pushed chad passed the cows.

some of my favorite leftovers from the header picture.

a friend mentioned how she started using her phone to take notes of great kid quotes & i thought fantastic idea. i'm always hunting up some scrap paper or old receipt when they've just said something worth remembering. these are from the last few weeks -
'no molly, i wanna jump over you!
but regan! you just jump on me!'
'mom, i'm running in place - all the way from the mail box to the living room!' - jack
'i'll share mine with you mom, 'cause i know bread isn't that healthy for you - but i know broccoli is healthy for you!' - ben
'the only way to keep me in the kitchen is work.' - ben
'ask siri mom, ask siri' - regan
'hey mommy, my teeth are dull because of meat' - ben
'and you are decedents of me so you will sit on this side' - sailor at a lego man/polly pocket wedding
'or He can say wait cause God always knows the special ist time for the judge to say yes' - ben when we were praying about some friends adoption process with a judge from another country.
'my side kinda hurts right hear, mom & it hurt yast night too ... maybe my bones are breaking' - molly ... then she giggled.
'but i'm too busy being a lion & a tiger' - jack, his response to why he wasn't making his bed.
'i can't get away from it!!!
get away from what, i asked
'the meanness ......' - ben said through hysterical tears
'mommy, i like it. it's so funky, mommy.' - regan .... about the pumpkin i set on the table.
'chad, did you know mom know like a million more things than you? - ben
and then to illustrate his point he offered 'like she knows not to eat garbage.'
'it seems like boys are always in the mood for war.' - sailor
'the thing with going shopping with dad, you can talk him into more things than you can with mom' - sailor
'i picked that flower with ben's pillars' - molly
'benny! you're not in my story - my story is about Jesus' - molly as she sat on her bike ...... followed by
'whoever is on a moving thing gets killed' - ben
'mommy, i know what i'm going to be for halloween - a pumpkin.' - molly
'i know what i'm gonna be .... a genius. just a plain ol' genius' - jack
