A Poopie Day

Can't see it?

A closer look

Yup that's poop


So, I was upstairs doing Pilates and Ben comes upstairs to play. Asher stays downstairs and then calls for me. I answer, " I am upstairs honey." I continue with my Pilates, and Ben is calling for Asher to come up and asking me to call for him. After I finish my 10 min I decide to walk down and check on him. And I found him lounging on the recliner covered in his own poop, and very happy I might add.
Did I mention that two weeks ago Joe took the boys and LuLu on a dough nut drive and then stopped by the DeGroff's to let the kids play. And Rebekah come down and informs Joe that Asher just ate some of his poop. Apparently he just reached in and grabbed a handful and helped himself. AAAAAA!!! So Yucky!

And all you moms would have been so proud of my reaction. I did not scream, yell or vomit. I just took him off the chair took some pictures :) wiped him down with wipes and bathed him.

Hope you all have a great Poopie Day.

Happy 4th of July



I was sitting down reading blogs the other day and realized that I am way behind on updating. So, here is the short of it. We were at Turkey Hill the first week of July, Joe directed and we all had an amazing time. The boys golfed 2-3x's a day. It was there favorite thing to do with daddy. We also got in some horse back riding, fishing and only one trip to the pool-Praises! Because I burned the first day and didn't want to go back :)
We happily returned and had a July 4th party out at the Young's and fellowshipped a bit. And then went to church on Sunday and dressed Benny in the cutest outfit ever-seriously check out the picture you can't argue with that. Now with family in town we are preparing for Camp Enosh next week and hopefully I will be diligent in posting :) he he he.. (nervous laughter)

We went to Turkey Hill Ranch Bible Camp this last weekend and had a great time. The boys had a blast and Ben can 't wait to go back again. I think I am still recovering :)

• Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
• Let them know they are tagged by leaving comments on their blogs.

Alright.

#1. I am NOT a germ-a-phobe. I let my kids drink from water fountains, and you know what.....so do I.

#2. I am the most girly I have ever been in my entire life right now. I never wore pink, never cared about my hair, (which I am cutting and highlighting tonight !!) burped all the time and liked being a tom-boy.

#3. I peed on a cow once :)...maybe more than once.

#4. I can drive a tractor if I have to.

#5. I don't mind going to the dentist, I love the comfy chairs they have.

#6. I loved New Kids on the Block. I hear they are making a come back now.

#7. I used to love scary movies. My friends and I would stay up all night long watching Jason, Chuckie and Feddie Kruger and laugh. But now I am so freaked out by anything scary. I am a big weenie and can hardly stand anything suspenceful. Probably because movies are so much better and scarier now-anyway me = scared of Horror movies.

I'll tag:

Magen
Michelle
Kristi
Kimmie (we'll see about her she is planning a wedding)
Paul


#8. I break rules :)

Joe's Groomsmen

Four years really flies by. Joe asked me today if I was happy with our four years of marriage. And I am more than happy. I could not have picked a more perfect match for myself. The Lord's ways are perfect. I have a wonderful husband and now two beautiful boys and a loving and wonderful church family-God is good! It is fun to look back at these pictures--A Mr. Jere Kemper took all these pictures, didn't he do a great job? Thank you Jere.

A new man

Before-long and in his eyes

And after, a brand new kid!

Asher got a big cut tonight his hair has been down in his eyes for a while. I was joking with Joe telling him I could put a clip in his hair or pig tails, it really was that long. Joe cut two inches off his hair. He looks like a whole new little boy, it's crazy! I am going to have to get used to his new "army" hair cut.

Please Pray

Please pray for the Mock family.
Lois Mock a friend of mine and a bridesmaid in my wedding died Wednesday. She was 6 months pregnant with their third child, a little boy. She had recently dislocated her knee and a blood clot formed and went to her heart. She leaves behind her husband Joshua and two little girls, Jaydn and Shayla-they are almost the same ages as my boys.
My heart has been heavy all weekend when I heard of her passing. I am comforted to know that my friend is now with the Lord. But I am still missing her-I had just talked with her the day before she died and I am thankful to the Lord for that.
Please keep Joshua and the girls in your prayers.
