We are horrible parents.
We moved here the middle of March and the littles are still in a room that is.....
PURPLE.
Still purple June 2nd.
"Actually, it's lavender mom"
Great, huh?
Yeah, it's really nice. I especially like the fact that sometimes when they walk in their room Jack will say things like "It's starting to look more blue I think..."
Yep. Horrible. Parents. I wasn't kidding...
I know it's hard to see, but it's purple.
And no their room isn't normally that clean, or without wall hangings (aka photos/posters/drawings/art)...but we'd just moved in when I snapped that lovely photo.
Anyway, I felt the need to confess....but I swear we're painting it. Soon.
On to better ...
We took away tv and video games from the boys this week. Not because they did anything. Just because we're horrible parents (see the example above) and we felt like seeing what they can come up with without their number one go to. (the wii)
Today they played outside until they were exhausted,
then they read and played boardgames...
Now they're doing something they "can't tell me"...which concerns me slightly, but it involves paper and writing, so hopefully it's a good thing...
Coley, all sweaty and reading...
and Jack beside himself because his brothers are reading, and not playing with him...
These pictures crack me up because Colten was being so patient with Jack, when really I know he just wanted to tell him to leave him alone.
And that's all I've got this monday....

my girls are not allowed to play their ds lites
( we don't even have the wii--but they want it).
or watch t.v. from monday thru thursday. everyone thinks i am mean, but honestly they never even ask to watch it anymore. they can play on the computer but they barely ever do. they would rather be reading/drawing/playing anyway....
