Surprise from Daddy

This morning daddy flew out for an interview and left Enoch and Michael each a little surprise: 2 small bags of pretzels and a note to each of them that says: To Enoch (Michael), Love Daddy. I told Enoch to read the notes and he did a great job! Then I had a idea to have them to write a thank you note to daddy. Michael wrote: LOVE Michael. Enoch Wrote: LOVE YOU DAD Thank you for giving us pretzels. He copied the last word "pretzels" wrong and was obsessed with writing a new note, so he ended up with 3 notes and it took about 20 mins before breakfast... ;)

Big booty.

Hey Mommy said that her bottom was small, so she could share a seat with enoch at the YMCA lounge. Enoch said Don't lie Mommy, your bottom is big big big big big! Had to tell him that girls don't like it when you say that.

Junk and Bowling

Sometimes I make fun of Sharon for spending time on the local Facebook barter and sell page, but it's all in jest because its great how she gets rid of our junk and buys new, maybe better junk. She snagged this bowling set for $5! What a deal. The kids loved playing with it. Although Enoch learned the hard way not to walk in front of someone who is about to throw the ball (michael wacked him, but it was Enoch's fault). We kissed his nose to make him feel better and I said ewwww and he laughed like nothing was wrong.

Happy angry pumpkin

Michael wanted a scary pumpkin and Enoch wanted happy. We did two faces on one pumpkin

Owl Babies

Tonight Enoch "read" the entire book of "Owl Babies" word to word to us!!! He memorized "Good Night Moon" when he was two but I'm pretty sure tonight he really recognized and read a lot of words. That is so awesome!! One of the best moments of parenthood! You should see Sam's and My dropped jaws...  I only hope he has such passion for Chinese some day!!

BEST BIG BROTHER EVER!!

(Oct 21)Michael didn't get to eat icecream after Enoch's soccer practice today for wetting his pants. Michael of course cried really hard. Enoch said, "but I want Michael to eat icecream..." We told him no and explained that it was a punishment. Then Enoch told Michael "Michael, go say sorry to mommy and daddy." Michael came to me but eventually didn't say anything. Then it was time to eat icecream. Enoch said " I want to save some icecream in my bowl for Michael." BEST BIG BROTHER EVER!!

Baby Sister

Today (Oct 20) we were reading a book about "little brother", I asked them how many little brothers they have. Of course after answering my question, Enoch said" But I don't have any sisters. When are we going to have a little sister?" Good question! I said" I don't know. Maybe if mommy have another baby, you might have a little sister..." Then Enoch said, "Well, I think tomorrow (I think he meant next time) it's still going to be a little brother. Mommy" Smarty Pants!
