Another Jae Moment...

Jae cracks me up and she doesn't even try. On the way home from church tonight there was a nasty car accident so we had to turn around and go home a different way. This is how the conversation went:
Jae: Mommy what are all of those twinkly lights?
Me: They are fire trucks, ambulances and police cars because there was an accident.
Jae: Oh.
Silence...
Jae: Mommy, what's an accident?
Me: It's when 2 cars crash into each other.
Jae: Well, it's when you pee in your pants, too.
Me: Yep Jae, you're right.
Oh how I love these little conversations. She makes me smile all the time :)

A Funny Jae Story

This morning Jae and JC were playing with some bracelets. They were playing nicely when Jae asked JC to watch her. It was quiet for a minute and then she got really frustrated...
Jae: Uggg...God didn't do what I said!
Mommy: What's wrong Jae?
Jae: I asked God to make these bracelets disappear and then come back again and he didn't listen.
Daddy: Jae that's not how it works...
She cracks me up :)

slurpees, hot dogs, smores and potty training

today was my first day of summer...wahoo! i love being a teacher. the weather has been cold and overcast, but the sun finally came out this afternoon.
tonight we went to my mom's house for a little backyard dinner. lance brought slurpees for the kids and everyone cooked their own hot dog. the kids had fun playing in the backyard and looking at and eating the veggies from mimaw's garden. after dinner we made smores, which is jae's favorite part. jc gets excited about the chocawet (chocolate) and usually makes a huge mess :)
we are potty training jc so we have been home all day. it was nice to get out of the house and spend time with family.

feeding the giraffes

tonight we went to the zoo with my mom. i love nighttime zoo! there weren't very many people there and we were able to see a ton of animals. my kids also got to feed the giraffes with mimaw :)



Padres Game

We had been talking about taking the kids to a game forever and we finally found a night that worked. We planned on buying Park in the Park tickets, but they weren't available when we go there. So we bought some nose bleed seats and sat in them for a half of an inning and ended up going to the Park. The kids had an awesome time. They were giving gloves to all the little munchkins so Jae and JC ended up playing catch for most of the evening.
