Five things about..............
Slade
1. He is an "expert" at geography. If you name a place, he probably knows where it is.
2. He loves Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. Reads the entire book the afternoon he gets them(I think he gets this from me)
3. He still can't tie his shoes. Well he can't tie them very tight. He can locate Utrecht, Netherlands on a map but can't tie his shoes tight. Go figure.
4. He hates to buy shoes or clothes. He's would be fine with one pair of jeans or shoes-ever.
5. He takes at least a 20 minute shower every morning. And sometimes he walks out 20 minutes later and never put any shampoo in his hair.
Finley
1. She is great at puzzles. She can put together really hard ones!
2. She loves fashion. She tells Kyle what to wear to church every Sunday morning.
3. She loves anything chocolate.
4. She only weighs 34 pounds. Lightweight.
5. She loves to watch Cupcake Wars and Cake Boss.
Gunnar
1. His favorite item to hold is a broom or rag.
2. He loves to take anything out of any cabinet at any time.
3. When asked what the cow says, he replies......"boooooo". It so stinkin' cute.
4. Black beans are some of his favorite foods to eat.
5. He hardly ever spit up as an infant. Unbelievable in this family.
Chey-Anne
1. I don't consider peanut butter a dessert. And I really don't like it as a meal. It kinds gags me unless it's in a Reese's Pieces cup.
2. I hate shopping-especially at Wal-Mart.
3. I love to cook new recipes-I will try pretty much anything. Unless it has peanut butter.
4. My husband has bought me all the nice purses I've ever owned. I'm not into purses-very ungirly of me, right?!?
5. I secretly love to watch Good Luck, Charlie that comes on the Disney Channel with Finley.
Kyle
1. He doesn't like to hunt animals. Very unboyish of him, right?!?
2. He loves cherry coke, steak, and cookies & creme Hershey bars.
3. He hates the taste of beer.
4. One of his favorite movies is Coal Miner's Daughter. Isn't that a scream!!!
5. He shared a room with his brother his entire childhood.
On Sunday, she propelled herself off my bed right into the window sill. It swelled up like a big marble, but luck was on her side because it looked really close to splitting it open. That would have definitely required stitches. 
And a few days later, she ended up with a big purple eyelid! Battle scars-gotta love them!
This is Purple Eye painting some cute magnets-she wanted me to take a picture of her with my phone! Which is rare because she does not like me to take her picture these days, Weirdo.
On another note, a few things around the house have changed since Wild Man came into our lives...........my kitchen towels are in an upper cabinet now. I have one empty drawer because someone loves to clean and I was loosing my mind picking up dishrags and towels 500 times per day. Momma smartened up, finally. A person can only pick up so many things each day.
I'm not a fan of picking up Comet, Mr. Clean, measuring cups, beaters, measuring spoons, etc. I am slowly getting the little plastic latch thingys on all the cabinets in the kitchen and my bathroom. Did you know that I found my hairspray in Finley's dress up bin?
Finley's art table stools now rest peacefully on our kitchen table. G has been found many times standing on top of the table, stuck, yelling for us to get him as he tries to steal scissors and markers out of the top bins. Super safe, I know. We had them on the bench but G was too smart for us. He just simply walked over to the kitchen bench and drug the stool to the art table and then proceeded to climb up on top of the table. Rule #1-you must be smarter than the 15 month old.
The dog's water has to be on the table on the back porch. You can imagine what he does with this. The we must remember to put the water down so the dog doesn't dehydrate.
Our mop in now an indoor/outdoor mop. Surprisingly, mop fibers and leaves will still clean your kitchen floor.
And the slide must be on it's side at all times. He's just not big enough to make it up and down safely. He's a bit top heavy still and requires assistance.
