Funny things Ru says

Story #1

So Alan and I have had some trouble getting Ru to eat her dinner so we told her if she didn't eat her dinner she could not have anything for the rest of the night and would have to wait til morning for breakfast. So she choose not tho eat her dinner a couple of nigth back. Well, she was hungry and wanted some food and I told her no. SO later on that night she was on the potty chair and Alan had Isaiah. Isaiah started crying and I yelled out to Alan not to put him to sleep because I need to feed him.
Then Ru in a whiny yet sweet voice says "FEED MEEEEEE". It was so cute it took all I had not to start laughing.



Story #2

So it snowed tonite. Thats right folks March 31st and we had a freakin blizzard. Not quite that bad but they were calling off school and evening classes. And for all you Texans out there it take a lot to call off school up here. Anyway, while we were walking to the door. I told Ru to say "Snow, snow go away come back another day" She said it and then turned to me and said " BUT I WANT TO KEEP IT". I know she is being such a traitor to her southern roots.

Okay well that's all I got.

4 month old Update

So Isaiah went to the doctors this morning for some shots and a weigh in. He weighs in at 14.6 lbs putting him in the 35 percentile and he is 26.25 inches tall putting him in the 80 percentile on height. And just for kicks his head circumference measures 18 inches putting him in the 100 percentile !!! He's gonna be a smarty :) He still loves his cereal and digests it well. He loves to be held and loves to cuddle. Oh and he loves his chupie of course- maybe even more than his sissy (just kidding).

He likes Food !!

Well, I must say this little guy ate his first taste of food with fervor. He LOVED IT. He ate two heaping teaspoons and then another teaspoon. He was so excited. He kicked his legs and kept his eyes wide open. I am so surprised how well he did for his first taste of cereal. I just hope his little body handles the food okay.

The Final Sacrifice

In honor of remembering Christ's death today, Ru and I made lamb cut out cookies and then frosted them. I tried to make the frosting red but it turned out pink. Ru had a blast frosting them while I explained why we were making them. Of course she doesn't quite understand- but someday we pray she will and that she will remember the goodness of Christ's death on the cross for her sins . . .

Spring is Coming

So the snow's been melting and we thought we'd go to the park. It wasn't as warm as we thought and Ru kept asking for a hat. We didn't have one with us by I was pretty proud of how I improvised. After setting Ru up I realized I was a touch cold myself. So I suited up for Team Huggies as well.

4045 12th Ave S

We think we found a keeper. We have a contract on this house and expect to close April 10th. It's located about three miles from downtown and very close to many of our favorite haunts. It will be about three times farther from where I work than our apartment was. I still hope to commute by bike 90+ percent of the time.

She's a Burdette

So Alan was working on his bike the other day and Ru jumped right in to help. Since then she has been taking his tools and "fixing" her bike. Daddy's little girl !!!
