My 3 Sons....

We are blessed with 3 very healthy and happy sons....however, saying that out loud can sometimes bring on the havoc...heehee. So, our oldest son, TCIG, always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time....
He was in P.E. last week, playing Ultimate Frisbee when another kid tried to knock the frisbee out of his hand. Well, his thumb was hyper-extended all the way BACK and immediately bruised and swelled. One trip to the Urgent Care. One trip to the Pediatrician. One trip to the Orthopedic Specialist. Two sets of X-Rays.....ultimately he will be ok. But he has been in a lot of pain and has to wear this brace for another 2 weeks. He is out of his favorite class...P.E. for awhile, too. He has been a pretty good sport about the whole thing. He never complains--even when we know it is hurting. The good thing (if there is a good thing) is the injury was to his left hand..so at least he can still do homework. YEAH!!

This is Monkey Boy. And yes he is standing on top of our car. We are busy conducting Science projects here at our house. It seems we are always doing science projects!! He had to make balloons out of different size plastic and then drop them and compare how they did. Since Dad helped mostly with this project I am not quite sure what the outcome was. I just know there was a lot of cutting, tying of string, climbing on my car, dropping and timing the balloons, a lot of whining when it came time to type up the project...etc.

This is JAG. He just turned the magical age of 7 and his teeth are falling out!! He has lost 3 teeth in the last 2 weeks. It is so funny watching him try to eat. He is keeping the tooth fairy very busy. And he is so surprised when he wakes up and finds the $$ under his pillow. Luckily, the tooth fairy has been very generous and has left his teeth for his mommy to put in his scrapbook.
My 3 sons....so very different. So full of.....well something, on different days it is different stuff. But I love them. I marvel out their creativity. I laugh at their funny personalities. I admire them for their priesthood responsibilities. I feel so very blessed.

  1. Different yes. Darling yes. I think they are all adorable. I love that you are always amidst science at your house...and the toothless thing is so cute. As for the thumb...I cringed as I read that...hopefully he is feeling way better now.
