Callie Anne! Happy Birthday!

I CANNOT believe this precious little girl is a year old already!! She has the sweetest funniest little personality - she definitely has a strong little will too (how could she not?) but she is such a laid back baby most of the time. She functions as a toy for Lexi and Mason regularly! Lexi was trying to jam some big pink socks on her at her birthday party and was seriously manhandling her - I think I would have been bawling! - but she just took it in stride.

Here's some pictures from the party.





This last one totally cracks me up - in the middle of opening presents, Mason squatted down, picked up the green bow, turned around and stuck it on his butt, and then just kept going with the flow!

Homeschool R Us

I've started homeschooling Lexi three days a week, working on kindergarten curriculum - so far she's doing great. I had to video her saying her verses - she is too stinkin' cute reciting them!

Jonah

Last night we took Lexi to see Wall-E (not so good for her age, but some funny adult lines). On the way there, she was excited and told us she went to see a move "a long time ago" at her church. Actually it was like a month ago, but I guess to a four year old that's a long time. :) It was a Veggie Tales, and our conversation went something like this:

Me: What was the movie about?
Lexi: I don't know. (Most irritating regular answer she gives me ...)
Me: Was it about Jonah?
Lexi: OH YEAH JONAH!
Me: What happened to Jonah?
Lexi: He got EATED by a BIG FISH!
Me: What happened before the fish ate him?
Lexi: He was on a boat in a storm, and he jumped off the boat and the storm went away.
Me: Right! Why was he on the boat?
Lexi: I don't know (whine)
Me: Did God want him to do something?
Lexi: OH YEAH! God wanted him to go to Vinegar and he didn't want to go!

Ha ha - I'm still laughting.
