New things!


Jackson has been wearing the same outfit to church every week since we have been here. I had a lot to pack and not much space getting here... Jacob has several shirts that he wears with his khakis. Well, we found a little suit for Jackson on clearance at Kohls the other day so we got it... and it's purple... how could I resist? Both boys got new church shoes also. They both had been wearing their beat up tennis shoes. Here they are showing off their new stuff with Daddy!
Ethan wanted Jacob to try a pepperocini at dinner the other day and I let him. I thought he would hate it, because I would hate it :) He actually had no reaction at all. He just kept sucking on it. And of course, Jackson enjoyed his quesadilla... Jacob got one too, pepperocini wasn't all he had for dinner.

Sneak Peek for Becky!

I have been really excited lately to work on my next project. I am postponing some of the others that I had planned. Once I finish my throw quilt I am going to start a quilt for Becky. I am doing a scrap quilt which I am excited to do, but also a little scared. There is just so much possibility that I can screw it up! :) I when trying to decide which fabrics to use I finally decided that is HAS to be bright... Becky is so happy and loving and positive... so I want this quilt to reflect that. So I am going to make her a bright scrappy quilt! It needs a mixture of light, bright and dark fabrics... but the majority I want bright. Here are some of my favorite scrap choices in my little collection for her quilt. I could not resist the crescent moon! It reminded me of Twilight, and Twilight will forever make me think of Becky, so it just has to be a part of the quilt :) I wanted to have the throw done by now but I've been sick so all quilting has been on hold. I did help mom with the quiet books a little. Next week will hopefully be full of good health and quilting!

Jackson Funnies

We were about to leave church and you know how chaotic that can be... find everyone, get jackets... when we were finally ready Luis said "On to the Wegermobile!" and Jackson said "No, to the car!" So funny!

Ethan's New Song

Ethan wrote a new song and recorded it. Here's the link.

Ethan Funnies

Jackson was watching Team Umizoomi with Ethan on the couch next to him. The cows on the show have kinda monotone voices and they have shapes on them. Ethan said very seriously "They talk like that because they were genetically modified and now they are zombies."

Jackson Funnies

Last night before bed I was reading the boys the book "Wacky Wednesday" and in it you are supposed to find all the "wacky" things on each page. On one page there is a person walking an alligator on a leash. I pointed it out and Jackson said "Mom, that's not an alligator. It's a crocodile."

Jacob and Jackson love Team Umizoomi on Nick Jr. Some educational shows nowadays, like Dora and Umizoomi, will say things like... "We need to jump over the ditch. Yell JUMP!" Well, Jackson is applying what he learns. This morning I heard him yell "If you want to see Francesco (from Cars 2), yell FRANCESCO!" It was hilarious!

Why Daddy is more fun than Mommy

...because Daddy can make these... Orange trees, houses, a truck pulling a boat, an elephant. The best I can do is a snake and a funky looking car. Luis has been a full time Daddy for the past 2 days while I have been working 7am-8pm. Tomorrow and Friday mom is taking over so Luis can go to work. I wish I was as creative when I was home with the kids! They have been having a lot of fun with him!
