Grocery Shopping

Shopping with younger children can be a challenging task at times. Having 3 boys so close in age is also equally as challenging. Some days they are great.. other days they turn into the three stooges and run rampage!

We have been working on an earning system for time on the Ipad. Since everyone wants to use it ALL the time and no one seems to want to help out, They now do things that earn them time. If they do something that I didn't have to ask them to do they get double the time and so forth. The relevance to my shopping trip this day was they were all really well behaved because of this system. Though being active farm boys they have to find ways to channel their energy.

This photo is a classic "Renata" moment. Now I tell you who else would hold the toilet paper like this. The funny thing is he did it SOOO well!!

(look past the people on the left to that little figure..hehe the toilet paper looks almost as big as he is!

"I'll be your best friend?!"

My baby never fails to have a “such a cutie” moment every day. I don’t know what it is about him, perhaps knowing he is the baby, or simply that he was such a good baby, that I have noticed these little moment s more.   I have to share this one with you. It has happened twice this last week. We are sitting in the car and Rakaipaka calls out and asks for something. Usually it is a lolly or chocolate or something I don’t have at that time. Anyway I call out ‘no’, and the response comes back, “Oooh, Ill be your best friend”!!! Ha How cute is that!! He is all of what 2 years old and is already trying that line on his mother!!! Now the question is posed…. Which one of his siblings did he hear that from!!!!

Volleyball

Teancum really enjoys playing volleyball. He jumped right into the teams at boys high, and within a couple of weeks, he was in the 'A' team. They came runner up this season to a solid Hillcrest school team. An awesome group of boys.
