{I LOVE My} Crazy Rice Kids

They’re nuts, plum nuts. 

They LOVE for me to take their picture using the negative setting.  It’s the greatest thing ever, especially to a 6 year old boy!

Ya gotta admit, he does look scary! 

 

On to some other cute stuff:

Today, Gracie was eating Bugles, but insisted on calling them “Googles” and after a few times of me correcting her (emphasizing the “Ba” sound) she started calling them “Beagles”

Evan got this goofy magic dolphin thingy that was supposed to tell you your mood just by holding it in your hand. Whatever the dolphin does (curls up on ends, moves its’ tail, etc) you look on the paper and see what it says your are.  On the first try he found out he was “curious”.  On the second he exclaims “Mommy! Now I’m not curious, I’m good for tune!”  I’m like “Good for tune?” Thinking tune=something to do with music, then it clicks, “OHHH! Bub, I think you mean “good fortune.”  ~So cute~

Oh, and apparently Gracie knows what a hexagon is…how she knows is still a mystery, but I was giving her a Little Debbie Easter Cake for bed-time snack and she asked if it was an egg, but then when she saw it she said “Oh, it’s just a hexagon”-I’m all “A wha??” (in shock) “How do you know what a hexagon is??”  She says “I dunno, I just know.”  (*The other day she informed me that she knows EVERYTHING*)

And…she is convinced that she is “bigger” when laying down than when standing up.  Don’t dare try to tell her that she is the same no matter what, she will argue and argue with you that she’s not.  She lies down in the floor and says “See?? I am bigger.”

Back to Evan:

We got his standardized test scores from winter.  It is broken down into 3 parts.  Here’s what his score chart looked like:

Section

Your Child’s Score Expected Performance for your child at this time in the school year
1 67 35 or more
2 98 50 or more
3 93 20 or more

Needless to say, we are very proud of him!

I have to agree, you have the most adorable kids. They are so much fun! I enjoy being with them, and having conversations - you never know what they're going to come up with, but it most always ends up in laughter. Amanda, I'm glad you are saving some of the memories in writing. Enjoy every minute of these childhood years - I promise you, they will be gone in a flash (tear :( !).
