Everyday Fun with the Kids

Lincoln -

Loves American Idol right now, and I am embarrassed to say his favorite contestant is Adam. Yikes. Brian says we are getting old, so his taste is probably more in touch with the younger crowd and Adam will win the whole thing. When Lincoln heard that he said we should change who we will end up liking someone who does not win. This kid hates to lose/be wrong. Wonder where he gets it?




Truman -

Dresses up in his motorcycle jacket with the Rock Band guitar to watch American Idol. I don't think he would like Adam if he saw his fingernail polish. The other day his friend Dallin was over to play and this is what I heard:

T: "Is that fingernail polish you are wearing."

D: "Yeah, I accidentally put it on."

T: Pause. "Ok, well I am not going to laugh at you. Let's go play."




Jefferson -

Came to sleep in our bed as he does nearly every night. Brian told him if he wiggled he had to go sleep in his bed. He held very still for a long time. Brian chatted and played with him and wiggled a bit. Jefferson called him on it. "Ok Dad, you wiggled, now you have to go sleep in my bed!"




McKinley -

Had her finger cut by Truman with some kid scissors. Brian and I still suspect some foul play, but Truman maintains it was an accident. She was a good sport and wore a bandage all day. It sure is cute to have her show off her "owie!"
