Oh the stories of a 3 1/2 year old!!!

So Boston has been quite the story teller lately! I am just amazed each week at the things he says, the imaginative stories he tells, and the songs he learns!! This week he tried telling me that he didn't pee in his underwear...but that he was all wet because someone had peed on HIM! Last week he peed on a table at daycare and tried blaming it on his friend Jude...who wasn't even AT daycare that day! And it's just too funny when you ask him something (and he knows he's in trouble) and the first words out of his mouth are "i didn't do it mommy, i'm not lying!" Today as we were driving home he starting singing a new song! Not sure if he learned it today or if it was just on his mind today but it's so cute hearing him sing and watching him do the actions. I'm just amazed at how he's learning and remembering songs and Bible stories! He has had the same "girlfriends" the entire school year:) Katie & Caitlyn. If you ask him where they live he answers " South America!". Not sure where he came up with that one!! Boston is a joy. Every day i'm reminded how lucky I am to be his mother!! Can you believe he'll be 4 years old in just a few months?!

Our basement is coming along way ahead of schedule! The taping and texturing started this week. Hopefully by the end of next week or shortly after, the texturing will be completed. Then we'll be on to the painting (after i finalize the colors!). I hurt my back this past weekend so have been gimping around like a 90 year old this week. Let's hope my back is healed up before the painting begins! I'm anxious to see it ALL put together!!

Well, I better get Boston settled down and ready for bed! It's Friday tomorrow!!

Progress in the Basement!

Finishing the basement has been our project for the last month! We have come a long way, and will hopefully be ready for taping and texturing in a week! I'm very anxious to start up the fireplace, and see the bathroom cabinets in this week! Still so many things yet to do and decide on. What colors to paint, what flooring to put in, picking out furniture...but it'll be so nice when it's complete! My friend Tara and I went to the movie Dear John today..what a great chick flick! I cried like a baby, but that's typical when there is a love story involved :) Boston and I have come down with a cold so we are home resting today and tonight. No Super Bowl party for us. I'm not even sure I want to watch now that the Vikings aren't in it! Back to work tomorrow for another busy week. It feels like we are always on the go. I can't imagine life with more kids, and more activites to fit into our schedule once Boston is older. It would be so nice to have a few days of doing nothing!! Boston has his Valentine party on Thursday morning at Preschool so i'll be going to that. I really enjoy being a part of his school activities! He picked out Transformer Valentines this year... thanks to his dad, he now thinks Super Hero's are cooler than me :)

Boston with Grandpa Ron's drill....dangerous!

Yes...my dad even allows me to use a saw!

A few weekends ago we had some friends over to watch the Vikings game. Boston loves playing with Tavyn & Savaeh! Here are the 3 of them sitting with us watching the game. Such good friends:)

We also made a trip to Chuck E Cheese recently. The photo booth is my favorite thing to do! It's hard work getting 3 faces in those pictures!
