Who's kid are you anyway!!!!

Yeah it has been a little while. I had a very interesting week with the boys! And got to thinking WHO'S KIDS ARE YOU ANYWAYS!!!!

Last week we were eating dinner at a restaurant and out of no where Covin askes "Mom, do girls poop?" I started laughing, then when I looked up there was a waitress walking right by our table. She pretended not to hear, then all of the sudden she busted up laughing. He was so embarrassed I think he forgot we didn't answer his question! What a question, he must think that is something grouse and girls are not supposed to be! :)

Later this week I got asked by Covin, "UMMM, do you think we could get a fish that doesn't die?" Yeah we tried fish and yes we killed them all within a week. I think we had 6 and in 1 week all of them died! Good thing we don't have a dog!

Then out of the blue Covin wants to know, "Mom, ummm I really want a baby girl, can you get one in your belly?" I said sorry buddy not right now. I tried explaining that I am in school and we are very busy and babies are a lot of work. So he told me, "Me and dad can take care of her, it is not hard!" Boy, do I wish that were true! My boys love babies, I just wish we had done things in a different order, it would have made life much easier! :)

Conner like I said before is now in a big bed and in the same room with Covin. They have done so good so far. Only a few episodes of making Conner get back into bed. Every time I take Conner in the room I ask Covin not to talk to him so he will just go to sleep. Covin is so good he says Ok I will just pretend to sleep. One night I could hear some laughing and I peaked in and Conner was sitting up in his bed saying, "Ovin, Ovin!" trying to wisper......So I busted open the door and said What are you doing!! It scared both of them. Covin started panicking, "Mom, I didn't talk to him he was just trying to talk to me." I was so hard not to crack up while I was in there! They both have been so much happier about bed time now that they have each other! The only time Conner throws a fit about going to bed is when he has to take a nap by himself!

Shaffen always talks about taking Covin crawdad fishing. So finally I said fine lets go. It was 1pm in the afternoon about 100 degrees and we are at a canal fishing with bacon trying to catch crawdads. As soon as they put the pole in the water they caught one. I am not sure what Covin thought we were going to catch, but a crawdad wasn't it! He freaked out threw the pole at Shaffen and was half way up the wash before we knew it! It was hilarious!!! We ended up catching 12 in 30 minutes! It was crazy!

We also drove to Sierra Vista yesterday to take the boys to the water park there! It is indoors and every 5 minutes waves come. They also have 2 water slides. Covin and Shaffen had a lot of fun, while I stayed with Conner while he cried his eyes out. That kid hates the water! As soon as I took him out he was a completely different kid! He is such a mess. We do wonder who's kid he is. He hates a lot of things, we are just figuring it out that he hates anything he can't control. Water is not one of them, he clung to me with his arms and was squeezing me with his legs! While we were there we were able to visit with our friends that moved away a year ago. i didn't realize how much I missed them. I wish we were better at keeping in touch! I am sure it will be better now that we know we still like each other!!! haha

Me and Nikki have been taking the boys on walks in the evening. She is trying to teach Carsen how to ride his bike without training wheels. It is a lot of work. She would probably have success if we didn't have so many other boys riding in traffic!!! They have been pretty good, but they don't last long enough for Nikki and I to get a work out, physically anyways!!!

All in all it has been a crazy busy week! We are doing T-ball, swimming lessons and Shaffen and I are trying to keep caught up with school. The kids are a crack up and so far it has been a fun summer! There are many things to come.......We can't wait!
