Pumpkin Patch

Saturday evening, the kids and I went to the pumpkin patch. We usually go every year and hadn't made it there this year. Daddy was out at the drag way with the Chevelle club.

We had fun at the pumpkin patch, but we were wiped out by the end -- literally, we stayed until closing time. I had forgotten how much the pumpkin patch bothered JT's allergies last year -- my bad! I didn't give any allergy medicine that day. Between running around, allergies, kids not feeling 100% and working up a hunger...we left needing 4 things quickly -- food (got Sonic, yum), allergy medicine, bath (sooo dirty), and bed. I had the kids to bed and asleep by 8:45, only to pass out in my bed a little while later.

Some of pic's below






Mom, it's too bright here!

Cool tractor!

The train was a hit with JT, of course.

Can I borrow this for timeouts?

JT is sooo done with this.

Do I have to get out?

















JT thinks this stuff hurts in shorts.

















Another train..Cool












Another tractor..Cool

Prayer Request for Jordan

Jordan

Please continue to pray for Jordan, 4 yr old daughter of Jodie and Joel, who are members of our bible study class and First Baptist. Jordan has Leukemia and she's struggling with this phase in her treatment. She's in the hospital and got out of ICU yesterday. Most of you know this family and have been praying for them faithfully since she was diagnosed in March, but I'm putting my request here for family and friends that do not live here or know Jordan. Please pray for this precious little girl and her family. Love, Momma Wolg

Hush Little Jacob

I revised the traditional "Hush Little Baby" for JT. I had fun creating and thought I would share it. I can't sing well, but it does calm him down. For my baby boy, Momma Wolg

Hush little Jacob
Don’t say a word,
Momma’s gonna buy you a Firebird.
If that Firebird don’t run,
Momma’s gonna buy you another one.

Hush little Jacob
Don’t scream and yell,
Momma’s gonna buy you a fast Chevelle.
If that Chevelle don’t go,
Momma’s gonna buy you a Camaro.

Hush little Jacob
Don’t you fret,
Momma’s gonna buy you a cool Corvette.
If that Corvette doesn’t go far,
Momma’s gonna buy you a muscle car.

Hush little Jacob
Don’t cry a lot,
Momma’s gonna buy you a big block.
If that engine don’t produce,
Momma’s gonna buy you a big shot of juice.

Hush little Jacob
Don’t boo hoo,
Momma’s gonna buy you a Malibu.
If that Malibu’s too slow,
Momma’s gonna buy you new GTO.

Hush little Jacob
Stop your play’ in,
Momma’s gonna buy you a Ford Mustang.
If that Ford breaks in a day,
Momma’s gonna buy you a Chevrolet.

Our Ballerina

As I mentioned last time, Sissy is in ballet now. Isn't she cute? She definitely looks the part. She's doing well considering this is her first time in dance class. And, she's loving it. It's a hoot to watch her and the other girls; at this age, it is tough to get your body to do what you want it to. :)

In case you're wondering...
There's a small recital in December without costumes and at the dance studio. In May, is the big Spring recital that will be in costumes and in an auditorim.

Love, Momma Wolg

Big Kids

It's hard to believe another week has flown by....Where does the time go? Here's some quick updates and pictures of the kids. Basically, I feel my kids are turning into big kids, especially Sissy -- 6 going on 13 some days. 5 minutes this morning to pick which shoes to wear -- okay, really, there's not that many to choose from (not yet). It's drama, drama. I reminded Daddy to prepare for teenage drama! Sissy is chasing boys and playing the "kissy game" -- no, no...not until you're married at 30. :) Sissy is taking ballet now. She loves it! If I can remember the camera as we dash out the door this week, I'll take some pictures to post. And, warm my heart, Sunday night after Sissy said her prayers, she was asking questions about being saved and baptized. She doesn't comprehend everything yet, but she's beginning to connect the dots. I just took a class for having faith conversations with your children. Good thing! I better study up. I've already figured out not to use religious words, like born again/reborn. Sissy thought you turn one again when you're saved and also when you go to heaven. Opps! I can't wait for the day that she says the prayer with me.

JT is a big boy -- going to preschool, in which he believes he's the "big man on campus" with his strut down the hallways; he's potty training (no diapers someday soon -- yippeeee); he got a big boy bed (see below); he has the ability to climb anything, yes anything, in the house -- latest trick: open door to garage, close door, climb on cat box, open garage door, escape to front yard. Ta Da...JT disappeared - the great escape. Must lock door to garage now...until he figures that out.

We're big kids now!

Aren't they cute?

JT's BIG boy bed!

Doesn't he look little in it?

JT, as cute as his daddy

Sissy took this picture herself!

They're as goofy as their parents. Wonder how that happened?

Last Sunday...off to church

My babies...not matter how big they get

The 1st through 5th graders sang in big church Sunday.

There's Sissy in the front row -- singing and occasionally twirling her dress side to side. She knows she's cute.

Sunday at home....I love it when we'll all together.

(My big kids need haircuts.)

Until next time....much love, Momma Wolg
