Birthday's

Lex had a birthday, He just turned seven!!! We celebrated his birthday at home with a few friends and family. We did a scavenger hunt with little clues and he had to use the clues to find his birthday presents, which I am afraid it might end up being a family tradition. It is harder than it sounds, but the kids sure love it and it makes the present opening last a little longer....

I got really lucky !!

Right after I ordered the Toy Story 3 cake at smiths  I decided to go to the bargain bins and look around. I found a bunch of Toy Story 3 items, pens, notepads, candy, sunglasses, playing cards all marked down. None of the items were over a dollar......I love finding a bargain..... I used them for party favors!!

We also celebrated Lincolns first Birthday back in August. He was such a ham and decided he was going to take his first steps ever in front of everyone. What a show off!!!!!

He enjoyed his new toys and his first birthday cake and we all enjoyed watching him.

Lincoln getting ready to take his first step!

Here is Lincoln making some funny faces.....

Lies

I posted this video for a good laugh! My six year old decided  he was going to try to get out of going to school today by faking  a toe injury. How unfortunate for him I have a rule when you stay home sick, you are sick in bed for the entire day. No video games, No toys! When he kept bugging me to let him play video games I asked to examine his toe. In fear that I might figure out the truth Lex explained to me the pain was no longer in his toe and had moved to the  arch of his foot. I knowing then there was no pain, decided to play along and examine the arch of his foot and as I was doing this a wave of guilt came over him and he spilled the beans. The guilt really seemed to overwhelm him as he has never lied to me in the past and I am happy to say I caught it all on camera!
