I Love You Through And Through

The Grossest Thing About Wrestling

Tonight Jed called to let us know about Gage's wrestling match. While we were talking on the phone, Gage had gotten out of bed and wanted to to talk to Grandma and Grandpa. He got on the phone and in a matter of fact voice he said, "Grandma, you want to know the grossest thing about wrestling "? I thought this has to be good. I imagined all kinds of unfavorable moves and positions that we won't discuss here. Gage started in great detail, that he and this other boy were wrestling, and the boy got kind of angry. "He got real close to my face with his face...........................and he got his burgers on my face.
Yep.......nothing of what I had imagined had even come close to being that gross!!! Aren't little boys great!!!!

Nikko at the airport

At this age Nikko vibrates his tongue in his mouth especially when he is tired. We were at the airport saying goodbye to them and I wanted to try and record it.
It was very late and he was very tired.

West Virginia Outfits

Jessica and Ben brought University of West Virginia outfits for the young'uns. Reese was in scrubs, Cy and Nikko in wrestling outfits, Gage in warm up pants and thermal shirt, and Ta Ta in a pink onesie with WV on the front.

"STOP KILLING ME, BEN" !!!!!!!!!!

Gage lives to play video games.And when Uncle Ben comes and plays with him he is in Heaven except of course when he is not winning...... It was funny watching him play ....the concentration and the movements of the legs and face were great even though they had nothing to do with the movement of the controls.

Movie Night at the Chrismans

Friday nights are "Movie Night" at Jed and Joanna's. Joanna provides the treats .Jed makes professional tickets (long tickets like at a play) on the computer with pictures of what ever movie they are viewing. The children then take turns being the ticket taker. The ticket taker wears a movie themed apron. Gage wears a "Transformer" apron, Reese wears an "Ariel" apron, and this is Cy's "Cars" apron. The "movie goers" have to line up in the hall downstairs and patiently wait for the theater room to become available.

Cy and "His Baby"

When Gage was little he would come up to you while you were holding Baby Reese and want so much to "pet" her softly. As soon as you let your guard down because he was being so gentle he would hall off and smack her and run off without fail.

We were concerned about Cy when Baby Taylor came home. He loves to swing his bat. The cards were stacked against her. He did try the bat but by about the 3rd day home he had gotten Reese's baby doll and would carry it around the house. That night when I was walking him to sleep to his Celine Dion CD, he rested his head on my shoulder while loving his baby doll. It was the sweetest thing.

The next day while Joanna was feeding Taylor on the couch, Cy saw her little leg and foot sticking out of the Hooter Hider. Taylor's and the doll's skin color are very close. He gave her little leg a tug because he thought it was the doll he had been loving and he wanted to play with her.

If Reese survived Gage I think Taylor will do just fine with Cy.
