Emily's Preschool Days

Emily and her teacher Miss Clark

Emily started preschool and I think she is enjoying it. After the first week I asked her if she liked preschool and she said, "I hate it!" When I asked her why, she said it was because I dress her up like a girl each time. She has finally come to terms with the fact that she's a girl, but insists that she's a "tom boy", so apparently I'm interfering with the image she is trying to portray.

When I asked her if she had any friends in her class she listed several boys names. I asked if she had any friends that were girls and she said, "No, I don't like girls, just some moms and you." Glad I made the cut!

She also told me how she flooded the toilet in the boys bathroom. I probably should have been concerned with the fact that she flooded the toilet, but I was more curious as to why she was using the boys bathroom. When asked why, she simply replied, "I thought it would be cooler in there."

. . . And so continue the adventures of Emily in preschool!

This made me laugh! She is so funny. You know, I think the boys bathroom is cooler, too, that is why I send my girls with Carl in there whenever they have to go to the bathroom in public places ;)

That is hilarious! I can't believe you'd have the nerve to dress her up like a girl. Moms are so mean.

Uhhh- so I'm pretty sure that everyone knows that the boys bathroom is WAY cooler.

At least, that's what Gage says since he's had to come with me to the ladies room for the last 4 1/2 years. He would know.

How cute! I love that she's a tomboy! Haha. As I've always said, she is soooo soooo cute. I love the little picture of you dressing her up, even if she hates it.

We sure had fun with you guys on Conference Sunday. That Emily is just as cute as every told she was and so are you Anica. I've always thought Aaron was cute so you are all cute. We really had fun.

Christmas in Germany

Christmas 2016 Bernkastel-Kues Christmas morning Our Christmas was a little different this year, or I guess a lot different because of being in a different country and far away from the family and friends we love. We celebrated about a week and a half early because Emily went to spend Christmas with her other family and Aaron had to work on Christmas. Emily left the day after the girls' last day of school, so when they came home from school we opened presents from each other and then by popular vote spent the rest of the night eating pizza and bowling at the bowling alley on base. The next day we woke up early to deliver Em to the airport. We were able to hit a couple of Christmas Markets in the beginning weeks of December with her and then we did a couple after she left. We thought it was kind of fun how each Christmas Market has their own mug that you can collect, so the collecting motivated Aaron a little more to hit multiple markets rather than to just stay ho...

6 Week Flu

SYMPTONS: FREQUENT VOMITING, EXCESSIVE FATIGUE, NAUSEA, LACK OF MOTIVATION SIDE EFFECTS: HOUSE TURNS INTO A PIG PEN, FAMILY MEMBERS WEAR DIRTY UNDERWEAR FOR SEVERAL DAYS, MEMBERS OF YOUR FAMILY ARE ACCUSED OF HAVING EATING DISORDERS FROM MALNUTRITION, YOUR BED & COUCH HAVE A PERMANENT INDENT, AND THE CARPET FROM HERE TO THE BATHROOM HAVE A WELL WORN PATH, PEOPLE THINK YOU HAVE FALLEN OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH My friend recently told me there's a chance she "might" be pregnant. When I asked what might meant, she told me it could just be the flu. I laughed at her until I started experiencing the same symptoms. Even after a positive pregnancy test I worried that it might be all in my head. Thank heavens for a trip to the doctor, he confirmed that: WE ARE HAVING BABY NUMBER 2 !!!!!! I apologize to any of you who have asked recently when we are having more kids or why I am sick, and I didn't give you a straight answer . . . well now you know!
