Random Ramblings

Heard at our house:

• I wanted to go and hang out with an amazing friend and her kids. Our kids were not very happy with this plan because it was going to be while they were at school. Raven tells me, "Mom that is not allowed. It is not ok for you to go without us." Well this mom decided to be rebellious against my 9 year olds wishes and I went anyway. I had a great time. Not saying that I wouldn't have had a great time with my kids as well, but you know, sometimes a mom just needs some me time with friends as well.

• Carson: I miss being with Jesus

• Me to Carson: Get your pants out of your mouth!

• Carson claims he has been to China with his dad. ..I would like to know when this went down cause I wasn't invited. Lol... he also claims he is funny. He Told me: I make you giggle everyday.

• Carson comes in and says take a picture and send it to Grammy so I can make her laugh

 

 

• Thanks to my mad mommy skills taco Tuesday was saved. Raven and Nadia thought it was going to be a disaster and that we couldn't have tacos without olives. I managed to fond the last two cans we have. Disaster fixed

 

• So I'm sitting here doing a word search and
  Carson says "oooh babe"
  Joe: did you call mom babe
  Carson: yes
  Joe: well she is a hot babe...
  Carson (giggling): mom dad said hot babe. He said your a hot babe mom

 

• Carson: didn't you knOw I called you on my phone mommy?
  Me: NO
  Carson: well I called you on my phone and the next time I call you you better answer me
  Apparently this conversation has been heard many times between Quynsie and I. And his dad gave him an old phone the other night night that we had stashed away
   
•  Carson sporting another one of his sisters hair accessories. He says: "Send it to grammy, she will laugh"

 

• Carson to his dad in Church: You don't believe in Ninja Turtles!!!

December 24:Christmas Eve

Laying here in bed and all of a sudden Carson wakes up and screams from his room: IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE!!!

Last night while driving around Springville looking at lights we drove past my high school. Nadia says: mommy I want to go to that high school I want to be a red devil just like you. I said I think this school has had enough sly 's go through it and since your my kid they would think that was just way too much.

Nadia got this for her birthday from Grandpa Davis. She sure does take after her grandpa's heart. They both love rocks and minerals and share the love of hunting and collecting rocks. She was so excited to get this gift. I wish I would have had the video camera out because she was in his lap so fast it was crazy.

This never happens. Carson usually refuses to even give Grandma Torri a hug, so for him to sit on her lap was really impressive.

Joe says: "Why do we even bother with Santa Clause because everyone else got them everything.

December 22: Owliver

So Carson got this little stuffed animal owl from our friend Hannah Cary and he has named it Owliver. Well a few minutes ago Carson was being extremely loud in bed and we asked him to be quiet. He said it's not me it's Owliver and you have to ask him that's what he wants. I said I'm not telling him you tell him he is your friend. Carson says I'll never tell him that.

This morning there was another incident about this owl. We went shopping this morning for something for H...annah and we stopped at her house to give it to her and after I headed to the gas station. Carson starts crying and I ask what is wrong and he says well owliver is home by himself and he is scared. I said well your other pets are there to keep him company so he is fine. Carson then says but he is scared and shy so he hasn't made any friends yet and he is probably lost now.

Warning: don't ever hurt his pets (stuffed animals) feelings cause Carson throws them all into the hall and won't be friends with them for half the day and he will cry that same amount of time then he calms down and is friends with them again. Believe me I have seen this happen many times so do me a favor and just don't hurt his pets feelings.

December 12: Raven, Nadia and Carson's Adoption Anniversary

Happy two year adoption anniversary to Raven, Nadia and Carson. I can't believe how fast time flies. In April it will be three years since that amazing phone call asking us to take these three kids into our home. I had no idea how much our lives were going to change but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love these kids more than anything

December 6: Early Christmas Gift

The kids have been asking for a basketball hoop for some time now. We ended up finding this hoop for an amazing deal on KSL and it is in really good shape. Because of its size and the fact that we found it on KSL we had no choice but to give it to them early. And Quynsie needed it for basketball practice.

November Randomness

This picture was taken around 8 PM on November 19th. Carson had been asleep at that this point for about 20 minutes. This never happens.

We started a new bonding technique with him awhile ago because he was not bonding with me as his mom. He is too old to be doing other newborn bonding things and he hates the rocking chair, so we decided to try letting him lay with me and once he was asleep we would move him to his own bed. I think we are about 4-5 months in and things have changed between us so much. He isn't violent with me anymore and that I am loving. Plus who wouldn't want to snuggle up to this amazing cuteness!!!


In November Joe had to work out of town and he had to spend the night there. This was the first time since we got our kids that he has been away from us for a night. This picture was of all of the kids in our bed watching a show.
