Strength

Cars has been up most of the night throwing up. It's a bad one. Every time he puts ANYTHING in his stomach it comes right back up. I have been using oils on him. We have tried a few different kinds of medicine... the works. Poor kid (side note: Cars is BY FAR the best sicky I have. He is such a good sick kid. He hits the toilet every time, he is not needy, he is really sweet anytime he needs anything, and for the only time in his life, he just lays around. He lays and lays and lays. He loves to look at music videos with me, or pinterest, or anything else I want to look up. He loves to just lay next to me and snuggle and chat. I love it!!!) Just the other day he called his Nana and asked if he could stay, by himself, at her house when we come home for Thanksgiving. He is SOOOOOO excited about this. So he tells me that he will do anything to be better in time to go by himself (you have to remember that he has to do almost everything with his brothers. It's not very often that he gets to do something of this magnitude alone, so it's a HUGE deal to him!) He told me, "Every time I throw up I do 3 push-ups to keep my strength up. I want to make sure I'm strong enough to stay in Casper." He was dead serious! Poor little guy. I explained to him that was not how that worked. Funny how kids minds work!

Mom and Dad Drill

Today while driving Colby tells me that him and his brothers have been having drills. I asked him what in the world he was talking about. He tells me that every night they have a mom and dad coming drill. And I'm sure you can guess what that means, but here's his explanation. "Cael jumps under Carson's bed and I jump under Caden's before you can open their door. While we are doing this, Caden and Carson get into their own beds and throw on the covers so that you cannot tell that we were even doing anything. We have been practicing a lot and we have gotten really good at it!" What do you even say to that?? I wanted to laugh, and be mad, and be proud of their creativity. Crazy life!!! Love my little crazies. I'm just going to get quieter and scare the crap out of them!!!
