Here’s What’s Going Oooooon!

Little has started putting her hair clips in by herself.

Memom gave KB a new pillow and she loves it.  She has slept on it every night she’s had it.
Bubba starts Kindergarten tomorrow and will be in M. Nienhaus’ class.  I can NOT believe how big he is.
Little discovered the Barbie website on Kid Rocket (filter for kids’ websites).  She did it while I wasn’t looking and now she is taken with the ability to fix Barbie’s hair.  I tell you, anything that makes that little girl excited about hair ON her head, I am fine with it.
One of the things I love about KB is her imagination.  This is Alice and Cow planning a county fair.  They spent the next 30 minutes coloring tickets.  (KB would tear out a slip of paper, put the marker and cow’s hand into her own, and color the slip of paper.  A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E.
Bubba is going to play soccer this Fall.  I was/am a bit nervous about it all but there are four other boys he knows well and he is so very excited.  He actually asked to play and I can’t justify saying no because of my fears for him.  We’ll see how it goes.  His daddy took him out to get his cleats, shin guards, and soccer ball.  They had dinner together at Chickfila afterward.  Good bonding time.  My little guy just keeps growing up.
Thumbs up to Amy W. for finding the best deal this week on soccer stuff!

KB D-light

This is awesome!
1.  That basket sits on the back of the toilet and holds
 extra rolls of toilet paper (usually).
2.  That is Baby – one of KB’s favorite dolls
3.  This is how Honey found them when he went in to take KB to the potty before coming upstairs for the night.
4.  The truths of baby Moses were told during
 children’s worship this morning.
Awesome, right? Told ya!

Six Somethings

Posted on August 12, 2011 by thebluehutch

1.  “When Captain America throws his mighty shield all those who chose to oppose his shield will yield!” This makes much more since now that I’ve seen Captain America in action.  Fun film – didn’t love the ending.

2.  Have you ever noticed how many songs on Christian radio are about God’ character as it relates to me? So the song is actually about me.  I’ve just been noticing.

3.  I turned to KB today and told her, “I’m going to miss you while you are at school this year.”  She looked back at me and said, “It’s going to be okay, Mom.  God is with me wherever I go.”  Then, in true VBS tradition, she yelled out, “Thank you, God!”  Love it.

4.  At a friend’s house this week Bubba and KB joined Drake in performing a “show.”  What this consisted of was Drake hitting a chair with a drumstick, KB pretending to play guitar, and Bubba dancing while singing, “Loser Like Me.”  It was cute.

5.  At the same house we played Xbox Kinect – Dance Central I believe it was.  The kids did great and then Amy had to go and challenge me to a Dance Battle and I, of course, accepted.  One step was out to the left then out to the right while you pump your arms a certain way, etc.   I was doing fine until my second step right and it felt like something tore in my calf muscle.  Turns out it did.  Not all the way through (thank you, Lord) but enough that I was off my foot for the next day and had ice on it and doctor prescribed muscle relaxers.  The doctor actually guessed how I got the injury before I finished getting Xbox out of my mouth.  My pride hurts more than my leg; makes me feel old.

6.  Marriage was the topic of the day on Saturday.  Of course it would be since we had just been to Pushman’s beautiful wedding (where my children were exceptional).  We were discussing Pushman no longer being Pushman but now she is Norris.  KB went right into, “If I marry Drake then I will be KB Wilkason?” and Bubba said, “If I marry Josh from Jumpstart Kindergarten my name will not be Kicklighter it will be Smith.”  We quickly had a rabbit trail lesson on God’s plan for Bubba to marry a girl.  “But not KB.” he said.  RIGHT!

I’ve gotta go to bed.  I am so behind on blogging I am afraid I will forget something cute that I want to remember.  Sigh.  I’m taking the kids to the dentist tomorrow and the plan is to blog some then.
