Kids!!!

We're driving to school the other morning and Rylie asks me a question. "Mom, why did God make your children so beautiful?" Oh yes she did. I told her that God made all children beautiful, to which she had no reply. I think we've finally got her trained to say "Thank You" when someone tells her she's beautiful instead of "I know". Preslie has started it now as well. She knows she beautiful and she'll tell you. Chase just walks around and says "I handsome just like my daddy". Do you think my kids are a little vain?

We picked up the kids joint Christmas present today........Rock Band for the PS3. Cody is so excited, he wants to open it now and break it in before the kids get a hold of it just to make sure it works. Ya right!!!! I'm not buying that one. Now, I have to find out where to hide it.

We made a trip to see Santa at the mall today. It was quite funny. Preslie wants a monkey, Rylie wants a Hannah Montana guitar (wonder if the rock band will work) and Chase wants a Thomas train. Not for sure where that one came from because he can't stand Thomas the train. Maybe it was a "A Christmas Story" moment......a uh, football!! I'll try to scan the picture later. Rylie did say when we were heading over to Santa that it wasn't Santa, it was an elf. She said Santa was at the North Pole working right now. I can't remember if I told her that before or if she's just starting to get to that age.

I picked up the kids wrapping paper for Christmas this year. Rylie went with, drum roll.....Hannah Montana. I got Chase, spiderman and Preslie got Little Pet Shop. Now, all their presents under the tree from mom and dad will be wrapped in this paper. Santa doesn't wrap his presents and he only fills stockings, leaves one big group present (rock band) and then one present for each child.
