My life

So, I figured that I should write a few things down before I forget them. Our kids do the funniest things, but I never remember. This way I will.

Little Weston is such a character. I feel like I am always one step behind him. He is non-stop and into everything possible around the house. There is so much to tell, I don't know where I could even start. But, I was able to catch one little bit of his mischevious behavior. One morning I was on the phone with Michael looking up something on the computer for him. The computer is in the adjoining room to our family room. As I was surfing the internet, I could hear the clanking of the silver ware in the kitchen. I had previously placed the knives up to where those that are vertically challenged could not reach. Thus, my mind was at ease. After I finished my conversation, I headed into the kitchen to see what Weston could be getting into. Funny enough, I did not see him with any silver ware. I opened the drawer and every single fork and spoon had vanished. I thought he had possibly put them in another drawer or cupboard. But, no. I looked for over 15 minutes scowering the kitchen. Nothing. I even asked him several times where he put the silver ware and he just laughed! That seemed to make me even more frustrated. Finally, the silver ware was rescued!! Just watch the videos and see for yourself.

Unfortunately, this next funny moment with Weston has to do with my horrible mothering skills. I learned this one from my dad.

Weston is a VERY loud child. He can also become unbelievably mad at times when he is not getting the attention he wants. There have been a few times when Hannah was asleep on my shoulder and Weston was feeling left out. To pay me back, he would come close to me and scream at the top of his lungs to wake Hannah up. This is a great way to get negative attention!! In all of my fury, I flipped Weston's lip without a seconds thought. I was not going to put up with that kind of behavior(not that mine was any more mature).

A couple of weeks ago, I bent down to talk to Weston. Whatever I said was not good. Weston clenched his hand into a fist and lifted it near my face. He pointed his finger a couple of times near my lip, and I immediately knew what he was trying to do. He was trying so hard to flip my lip in all of his anger. I had to laugh!! I could not keep it in!

As you can tell, the second video is a little dark. I found the silver ware in the back of the couch. He had dropped every single piece behind the cushions. I had to laugh when I found them. What a little punk! Good thing he is cute!
