I am LOVING watching the Olympics! Aren't you? Gymnastics, diving, swimming...I even got into women's volleyball last night. ; )
This morning we took the boys to a local splash park. I have been wanting to go for a while, and it was so much fun! The boys loved it. As I walked around with the boys I kept thinking water would splash right up underneath me and scare me to death, but thank goodness it never happened.
Zach said the funniest thing to me, and I just have to share...
Zach: "Mommy, what do you want to be when you grow up?"
Me: "Well, I'm a mommy and take care of you and Colson. That's what I've always wanted to be."
Zach: "But Mom, what do you want to be when you grow up?"
Me: "Zach, I'm already grown up."
Zach: "But you don't do anything."
Thankfully this made me laugh instead of cry. ; )

LOL!!! I'm laughing right along with you. :) And YES...the Olympics are awesome!! I can't stop watching, and I'm already wondering how I'll cope when the go off. :)
Haha! That made me laugh out loud! Hopefully one day he will see just how hard being a stay at home mom is!
Kids are so funny! Love the pictures!
Z cracks me up! What a hoot. What do you really do, though? BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
So funny!!! I laughed out loud as well. I attend Andy Stanley's church in Alpharetta, GA. Next Sunday (August 12th) he is starting a six week series on parenting. You can go to www.northpoint.com and watch in the mornings or wait a couple of days and watch under messages. He is amazing!!

Just came across your blog two seconds after writing on someone else's blog that my two favourite events are diving and gymnastics (hers too!)... must be a lady thing!! ;) Anyway, you have a beautiful family!! Haha oh my...so funny and cute what your son said!
Oh boy . . . one day in the far future - Zach will be babysitting alone for his children while his wife is out and those words will ring in his ear ! LOL LOL LOL
And he will say, Oh now I get it, Mom did ALOT ! hah
Ha! Arabelle and I have had that same conversation. I told her I worked as a nurse before she was born, but she doesn't believe me.
Cute pics, as usual!
Hilarious! Don't you just love kid's minds and their perspectives? Cute pics, miss you!

That comment is so stinkin' funny that Zach said. I'm glad it didn't make you cry. LOL...
Love that comment! Your girls trip looks like so much fun and I am so happy to see that the race went well. That Zach cracks me up with his funny comments. Mandy is a one in a million sister. Sure wish that I had a sister! Praying for the peace that passes all understanding for you. August must be especially tough although I bet all the months are hard!

Hadley told me I need to get a job because I don't do anything. ;)
Too funny! And yes Olympic fever is in full swing at my house. I don't stay up late since I have to be at work by 6am. BUT I am up at 3 making breakfast for my hubby so I get to watch it all in the early am hours. Being from Baltimore, we are all so proud of Michael Phelps and all he has accomplished. Well done, Michael. And oh Lord the girls gymnastics team are AMAZING! Gabby is incredible - so much to be proud of!
Oh, Katie, this was just so sweet and so funny at the same time. I raised four kids and I love the beautiful things that kids come up with.
Kids say the cutest things! Love the pictures, the splash park looks like fun, my kids love going to them on hot summer days!
