you mess with the bull...

he's ready for kindergarten

today as joshua was pushing along his one true love (garbage truck), he was singing the abc's! i didn't know that he could do that, so it was a neat surprise!

so tonight as i was baking a cake i decided to let him count the eggs all by himself...it went something like this:

"one, two, thwee, more, fibe!"

awesome!

zoom!

i have to get this on video, because he is suprisingly fast!

he's officially...

sweetheart with a sweet tooth...

we had a fun halloween weekend, and ate more than our share of candy & treats. on friday, abby brought home some left over cupcakes from her class party. there was one left on saturday morning that she was "saving for later." when joshua woke up he quickly spotted it, picked it up, licked the top (covering it in snots), needless to say his territory was marked. abby was upset. i told her not to feel bad, that it probably didn't taste too good because it was a day old. i couldn't get the whole sentence out before joshua started "mmmmmmmm"ing.  then he said "abba, this is soooo nummy!"

nothing like a healthy breakfast to start the day off right, right!?!
so the kid's got a sweet tooth. can't fault him for that, after all, i'm pretty sure i know where he gets it.

 

but eating cookie dough balls? this is where i draw the line! i had a few cookie sheets lined up, waiting for their turn in the oven, when callie yelled, "mom, josh is eating your cookies!"

this is the look on his face when he knows he's in big trouble. his punishment...no more cookie dough.
