Just silly

Just some plain ol' silliness around here. The other day during "quiet time"...Zander napping of course and Kya and I were just chillin' on the couch. We were engaged in a deep conversation...you know the ones you get into with your 3 1/2 year old. We were talking about different animals and what they do, Kya was curious about some (pretty normal for her to be interested in animals).

Then she looked at me and said, "Why does God make cows?"
Me: Because we need milk and meat
"Why does God make houses?"
Me: Because we need a safe place to live
"Why does God make pigs?"
Me: Because we need bacon and pork to eat
"Why does God make families?"
Me: That is the best question you have had all day. Why don't we talk about that for FHE.

And so for our FHE that night we talked about why God makes families and we had a little discussion about HOW God made our family. Kya always gets giddy when we ask her who's belly she came from and who's belly Zander came from. And then when we asked who her mommy and daddy were...she just gave me a big hug.

I love these conversations we have...its great mother-daughter time that I will always cherish. I hope our conversations never stop.

Now for the SILLY

Zander with some crazy bed head one morning

The kids got into the winter hats yesterday morning...apparently they think we need to double layer when we put on hats.

Went to the park for lunch and this is what I found when we got home.

Zander is the most loving and cuddly little boy I know. I got him up from his nap and he wanted to go to daddy. He buries his head in our chests and just cuddles right up until he really wants to get up. This time...he wasn't ready.

And then there is the handsome fella in the picture with Zander. Just a side note of journaling.

We had the most fun the other night after watching Leno...the artist/singer that performed, was from the Eclipse soundtrack and we loved the song. So we spent the next couple hours...into the wee morning hours...listening online to that song and searching pics, music, trailers and all sorts of Twilight/Eclipse stuff. It was so much fun. I love that Carl gets into it with me....ok, so I am more of a FREAK about the movies, but he likes them and has fun watching me get excited. He really likes the music too...he's a music junkie.

Remember when you were first with your significant other and you would sit up talking all night long about just silly things....that was what this night was like...

...and being the "hopeless romantic" that I am, I LOVED IT!

Good times!
