"...and a half!"

Jason: "Momma, I am only 2 and a half. When I turn 3 and a half I will be a BIG boy. Then I can drive the car and look in the mirror like you right!?"

********

A couple of months ago Jason and Benj were... um... having a little argument about something. I cannot remember what they were having a power struggle about, but in all my mommy wisdom :-) I gently reminded Benj that Jason was only 2 years old. Jason immediately stopped what he was doing, turned to me, and yelled "Momma! I am 2 and a half! Don't take away my half, don't take away my half!"

The funniest part is I am pretty sure we have never taught him about "and a half." Silly kid.

General Conference Time!

I am excited for this weekend! My parents are visiting and we get to watch General Conference!
In an attempt to help Jason understand what General Conference is and why it is special I have been compiling activities for him to do while we watch this weekend. Check out this site for some WONDERFUL ideas! It has conference activity packets, FHE lesson ideas, coloring pages, etc.

Boy Party

Last night I had a cub scout committee meeting so Jason and Benj got to spend some quality time together just the two of them. I told Jason he was going to have a boy party with dad. His response was "yeah! We need some party hats!" When I came home Benj showed me this picture he took with the cell phone. Looks like they had fun. Party hats and toilette paper roll swords, looks like some fun dad/son bonding.

Monster Friend

Today's craft.
You've got to love what a little batting and felt will create. Jason had fun stuffing him full and gluing the pieces down and it was a good way for me to review colors and shapes with him. The result is a new monster friend for him. His name is "Frabbit."
