But MOM.....

We have moved on to negotiations with my biggest boy! He has gotten very good at expressing himself and pleading his case!!! (It is SO hard not to smile and giggle each time, he's getting SO BIG) 

This morning he watched Caillou over and over! And he is such a cute character, SO NICE TO HIS MOM that I was all for it! But then this afternoon I suggested we color! He said he wanted to color a plate, easy enough! Then after about a minute he looked up at me and said "Caillou colored Rosie's (his sister) face and made her a clown! I want to color Coopers face and make him a clown too.... PLEASE PLEASE!!! Caillou did it and he is a nice boy!!" It went on and on...  At first I said no but then I remembered I wanted to be more laid back and let them be little and have fun! SO why not, marker washes off and they are playing SO nicely together! 

(Cooper was mad that I was taking his picture and taking away the markers:(

So they colored each other for at least a half an hour while I packed a few boxes! They would run in every couple minutes to show off their latest masterpiece on their arm or face or leg!! After a while the marker started to rub off on their clothes and I was worried it would make its way to the couch or carpet so we had to stop the coloring! Spencer was devistated I assured him that we But we would go to Walmart and get some face paint! They had SO much fun and if Caillou can do it then WHY NOT!!! 

A couple random Graham pics, I was really trying to get him to smile on que....HE DID he just let out a little milk at the same time! AHH its so funny how blissfully unaware babies are!!! :)
