A Few Things

• Jackson has apparently taken a liking to football.  The other day he yelled, "Tackle!" and ran smack into Kate, knocking her to the floor.  Today he walked by her, gave her a shoulder bump, again knocking her to the floor.  
• Kate has taken her 'into everything' stage to a whole new level.  Today I was getting Jackson a treat from the 'red basket' after he went pee-pee on the froggy potty.  When I turned around, Kate had one hand in her mouth and the other hand in the froggy potty.  And no, I had not dumped it yet.  GROSS!
• Jackson already knows how to play the cards.  When he wants something that he knows I may not agree to, he'll start the conversation with 'Mommy, I love you!'  I love you, too Jackson!  'My have  some candy?'
• Botox in 12 year olds and 9 year olds who are getting waxed.  Seriously!?!  What in the world are kids going to be doing in ten years when Kate is entering the infamous tween years?
• Ashely and I are going to start meal planning and using our blogs to hold us accountable.  I've wanted to do this for some time now, but just can't seem to make it a priority.  And I hate that every night at 5:30, I'm scrambling to come up with a dinner idea. Our plan is to start posting our menus next Monday.  If anybody wants to do this with us, feel free to find some way to document your plan...you could email it, facebook it, or just leave a comment on my menu post.  I know this is just something else I'm going to have to do, but we've gotta eat, so....it just kinda makes sense.  I mean, I do have Bob the Bull in the freezer and all!
