Conversations

The kids upstairs have now determined that I am their new BFF. They are ages 8, 10 and 14. They live a hard life and so they crave even a little positive attention. Yesterday the 8 and 10 year olds came over to see if Rhett could play (he's pretty popular in our parking lot). After I told them he was taking a nap and that maybe in a few hours he could they left and an hour later they knocked again to see if he could play. So I let them in and they played and played with Rhett and then they cleaned my apartment. If an 8 year old boy wants to clean my apartment I'll let him.

At one point they looked at me and said:
8 year old boy:  "You look really young to be a grown up"
Me: "How old do you think I am"
8 year old: "um...like 20 or a teenager?"
Lets just say I didn't correct him :)

They then told me their uncle had died last week so we had a good gospel conversation about how they will see him again and then this conversation happened
10 year old girl: "He has a...you know...that word that is half a bad word and half a good word."
Me: "Wait what?"
8 year old: "You know an obituary." The girl then gasped. Even though we hear them swear all time they some how know that we don't in my house.

I will never look at the word obituary the same again!

Messy Faces and 4 Months

Well here are a lot of pictures to distract you from what you should be doing.

My friend Meredith brought over some treats last week that Rhett smashed all over his face

Hope turned 4 months and got her first taste of apple sauce. She wont leave her tongue in her mouth so you have to drop the food on her tongue in order to get anything in her 

 I make smoothies all the time and he loves them! I don't even have to hide that I put veggies in them because he would choose eating green beans over ice cream any day. He's an odd child.

At 4 months Hope weighs 16 lbs!
