The after Christmas buzz has worn off

Well all the kids presents are laid on the floor. The knickknacks are broken and I stepped on a toy but soon they will be back at school and oh my joy. The Christmas season is behind us now and life will return to normal soon after the new year but for now I give you a glimpse into the mind of Nathan. Nathan and I went to church this morning and he did well for the first half of church but soon after his snack was eaten and the sugar buzz wore off he turned on me. At first he said he wanted to go home and that was normal but then he gave it a twist and said he was going to walk home so I said go ahead and he proceeded to put his hat, gloves, and coat on and he took about 4 steps and kept saying he was going to go. After he gave up on trekking in the cold he started in after the priest and said when is he going to be done talking. He keeps talking and talking and talking. After a few minutes of whining he said the best thing yet. He said he was leaving and told me to have fun with your church. That made me smirk as he is so funny and yet such a pain. Gotta love him.

Peace Out

6 Years of life goes by so quickly

This last weekend we had Tyler 6th birthday party at the local bowling alley. He invited a neighbor, his brother, a cousin, and a friend from school. One kid from all the required friend groups I think. We had a blast bowling and nobody was injured which was good when you have 5 kids running around with heavy objects to drop. My toes made it through. Tyler actually bowled really well. This is the second time he went bowling and loved it. He bowled a 77 the first game and even had a spare, mind you it was bumper bowling but still enjoyable. We also went to my brother-in-law Terry concert later that night and it was really exciting and well performed. I volunteered to help and got put on CD sales and I sold 2 CD's so I am helping the cause (the Paukert Fund), I also helped rock the littlest Beaudry (Oliver). He especially liked the Answer the call song as he kicked in wiggled around during the entire song. It was a blast.
