Joseph Singing

Ok this isn't the best video and I couldn't get the camera going fast enough so you miss the beginning of the ABCs.
For those of you who cannot understand Patty Cake it goes as the following : Patty Cake, roll it, pat it, mark it with a B, put in oven for JJ.

Family Resemblance

I thought this would have been fun for everyone to see. These are pictures of Matt, myself, and Joseph at the age of 2. My picture is kind of darker so its hard to tell that Joseph's hair is the exact same color as mine.

Life Update!

Life here has been really busy, as usual. Thankfully the past few weeks have been warm enough to take Joseph outside. It helps to use up some of that energy of his! His favorite past time is dropping sticks in the river behind our complex. This past week Matt has been on Spring Break. Its been fun to spend some time together as a family. I couldn't believe how fast we filled up our vacation week. I am going to our church's Girls Camp this summer, so I attended some meetings for that. I also had a Scentsy Party to show off the new Spring/Summer Line. Mother Nature decided it was time for some hot weather. When the weather forecast shows 80s for the entire week, I guess its time to buy my son some new shorts!! We have loved the warm weather. Joseph is excited to play at the park again. In fact, he never wants to leave no matter how dark or how hungry he is. We did our early voting for the Illinois Primary. We did more apartment searches. We did some geocaching. I attended a wonderful Sister's event for my church. I have truly been spoiled this past week with sleeping in every other day, having my hubby home for more than 2 hours a day, and then to top it all off with WONDERFUL weather.

Here are some fun pictures

And MORE Joseph-isms

Joseph was watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. The girls (Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabell) are in the Go-Getters Club. They have a song (Go Getters Go Getters Go Go Go). Joseph started dancing and then running around singing GO GO GO! GO GO GO!

Matt drew a picture of a car on Joseph's Magna Doodle during church. After showing it to Joseph he yelled out "LIGHTNING MCQUEEN!!!" I'm sure the person in the middle of their talk appreciated that.

We are trying to teach Joseph "please" and "thank you". Usually he is pretty good, but one day he ran up to us saying "Loops, Loops" (Fruit Loops). Matt said "What is the magic word" and Joseph answered "My Loops"

Matt was having a brownie for dessert and shared it with Joseph. He gave Joseph a bit and took a bite for himself. He handed Joseph his next bite and Joseph responded "Mommy's turn" and grabbed the bit of brownie and ran it across the room over to me saying "Mommy's turn". Sorry, your diet goes out the window when your son brings you a brownie.

Matthew-isms

I always post some Joseph-isms. I thought this blog could use some Matthew-isms

1. If you are going to be stupid, at least do it to music
2. Don't judge me, it was on sale
3. Joseph: "I sitting on backpack"
    Matthew "its on your butt, that would be incorrect"
4. Blocks don't attach to your foot Joseph. You are not a giant Lego"
