Star Wars Obsession

Joseph is obsessed with Star Wars. He loves the legos, the Lego Star Wars video games, the figures, light sabers, etc. Mommy is not sure how it all got started. Apparently several of his friends have the Lego Star Wars games. Mommy had a friend of hers watch Joseph one afternoon while she took the girls to a doctor's appointment. Joseph would not stop talking about the game. Mommy made the mistake of asking the friend what game Joseph had played at her house and then getting him one. Joseph's cousins and Uncle Andrew also love Star Wars so he is in good company. Oh well. Mommy has to say that she prefers Star Wars to Star Trek...sorry if there are any Trekkies that follow this blog.

Mommy and Daddy have fueled Joseph's Star Wars obsession by buying him toys and video games, watching all 6 movies with him, and by throwing him a Star Wars themed 4th birthday party.

Anyway, here is a cute picture of Joseph with his drawing of Jabba the Hutt.

Uh oh...Joseph lost an arm...

You said what?

So we were at breakfast the other day and Joseph randomly said, "I don't like your husband!" Mommy said, "What did you say?" Joseph said, "I don't like your husband!" Mommy said, "You don't like Daddy?" Joseph said, "I like Daddy." "I don't like your other husbands." Mommy was laughing so hard. Mommy said, "I don't have any other husbands." Joseph just kept saying he didn't like my other husbands. He wouldn't explain what he meant. Mommy told Joseph that Mommy and Daddy are married and that Daddy is Mommy's husband. Mommy called and told Daddy what Joseph said. Daddy laughed.

Audrey's funny word of the day is "delicious!" She always tries to drink the bath water and Mommy and Daddy tell her not to do that. The other night, every time Mommy told Audrey to stop drinking the water, she said, "delicious!" It was so funny that Mommy couldn't get mad at her.

Joseph said something pretty funny to Daddy the other day too, but Daddy said Mommy had better not post it...lol. Kids do say the darndest things...sometimes in inopportune places...like a public restroom...lol (Mommy will leave it to your imagination what Joseph might have said...ha ha)!

Growing like Weeds

Kids really do grow like weeds. Katelyn is already 5 and a half months old! Audrey just turned two recently and Joseph will be 4 years old on monday. Mommy doesn't know where all the time has gone.

Audrey is going through the terrible twos and she's pretty terrible. Her screaming and stubborn attitude is driving Mommy and Daddy insane. Joseph has entered the whining stage, but other than that, he's a fun kid and a great older brother. Katelyn is as sweet as ever. She smiles whenever she sees Mommy and Daddy and seems to be in a perpetually good mood. If only they were all so sweet most all of the time!

Everyone loves Katelyn!
