Funny Sayings

So over the past 6 months Tyson has really started saying some funny things!  Here are a few that I can still remember!

I moved Tyson's basketball hoop to the garage as we were getting ready to put our house on the market.  Tyson was wondering where it was.  I said that since we were trying to sell our house we had to move it into the garage.  About two minutes later Tyson asked, "We're not trying to sell our garage?"  He's so funny!

I asked Tyson if he wanted to read "Hop on Pop" and he said, "How 'bout Hop on your mother?"  He's already making your mom jokes :)

I was putting on make-up and Tyson said, "We don't color our eyebrows, we color on paper!"

He was with some friends and they were talking about how much they liked to sleep.  One boy said, "I like sleeping times one hundred!" Tyson promptly said, "I like sleeping as big as my mom's lunch!" Oh the things people will start to know about us :)

Austin can say Uh Oh and Gank oo (Thank you).  He says thank you when he wants something, just before he's about to take it from you :)

I was singing the song, "I love pretzels, pretzels are fine--I love pretzels, I eat them all the time--If I had one hundred pretzels, I'll tell you what I'd do, If I had one hundred pretzels, I'd give them all to you!" Then I asked Tyson what he would do with them.  He said, "I'd give them to Austin!" I then asked him what Austin would do with them, "He'd throw 'em on the floor!"  And he's right.  Austin LOVES throwing anything, just for the sake of throwing it!

Christian and I were sitting on the bed and Tyson comes sneaking into the room, "I was pretending you were Laman and Lemuel!"  (Two bad guys from the Book of Mormon!)

I love the way they laugh!  My kids have contagious laughs and the one will start the other!  I love my boys!

missing already

I know you're supposed to enjoy things while they last and not wish them away or give them up before they're over, but I am sure going to miss this...

 And this...

And this...

I'm getting so sad to leave our friends in Texas!  I think it's compounded by having seen so many of my best friends move away.  Thank you for making my time in Texas wonderful.

Let's Rodeo San Antonio 2012!!

Here's the rodeo for the last time!  We scored free tickets from our neighbors (who also volunteered to watch our kids) and we called up the Bells and headed out for a great time at the actual rodeo!  There were cowboys from all over the place--including Australia (made me think of you, Eish!) The best part was being out on a date!!  The second best part was listening to Joan Jetts and the Blackhearts--She's older than my mom and still singing about how her parents can stop controlling her life.  You gotta love 80's rockstars!

Austin's first steps!

Austin's first step was more like 6--then 10--then turning corners.  It was so much fun to see him getting up after every spill and just laughing as he learned to walk!  We love this little guy!  Way to go my 14 month old baby :)

This video was taken the day we listed our house and walking was only going to make keeping everything clean a little bit worse!  Luckily we were able to sell our house to the first people who saw it.  We have been so very blessed!  I can only say thank you to the Blairs who are our acting storage unit, the Duncans, who lent us their beautiful wreath, Crystal, who helped me to clean and basically stage the entire house (thank you so much!) and finally Lindsey Denton, who crouched into the most uncomfortable positions to take pictures of our house while 8 1/2 months pregnant.  I am amazed by the kindness of our friends.  Thank you so much  each of you!

Through another's eyes

For some reason, most of Tyson's friends are afraid of Austin.  I could never figure out why until I came across this picture Tyson took...it's all starting to come together :)

Here's Tyson in the driver's seat!  They say this day is actually not that far distant!

What a cutie!
