once upon a time

jack told me his first story yesterday! he folded his hands together like they were a book, with his palms and fingers touching, opened them and said," baby rawr goes to the jungle and find a treasure and his mommy and then he go home":) i was thrilled! jacob was thrilled! jack then told us the same story during bedtime so his daddy could hear the story, too:)

pretty pretty little girl

she's my girl:) i love my girl!

she's co- captain on jack's spaceship

quiet time in the turner household

sammy's uniform

sammy does not like clothes. he does, however, like accessories. the following are pics of sammy's daily uniform that he wears around the house. every single day.

really excited about his new boots!

he has a shirt on!

apparently he's michael jackson

when he started walking around with these on, we figured it was time to get him his own pair of boots

hands and knees

richard's on his hands and knees!!

he also drinks through a straw:)

sunday best

now that jack's in primary, we finally got him a white button- down shirt. he was very happy to wear his shirt this past sunday, especially with his little tie. he really liked being "just like daddy":)

my little couch potatoes

he's captain jack, flying his spaceship

he built that himself!

here comes richard

richard's getting so big!! he's seven months and 18 pounds! he's also starting to do the gi joe crawl, where he drags himself by his arms. every so often, we'll catch him on hands and knees, rocking back and forth, so he's definitely trying to crawl. but, for now, the gi joe crawl's serving him well...it gets him to the toys!

he loves to eat books

made it to the playroom!!

sammy's trying to feed him peanut butter:) that didn't last long:)

playing with the house and the flushing potty

he found the toy cars!!

sourpuss sammy

sammy, like his daddy, has a thing for sour. he sucks mustard right out of the bottle. one day, he went to get the mustard and we were out, so sammy tried lemon juice. we kept telling him that it was going to be really sour, but he insisted and having a cup of lemon juice. the following pics are his reaction to the lemon juice. oh, and he hasn't learned his lesson. he still takes the lemon juice out and drinks it:)

taking a sip...

hahahahaha:) he wasn't sure what to think so he went back for seconds:)

haircuts

audrey and jack went for haircuts on saturday. jack doesn't like haircuts, so we were amazed when he sat very nicely and didn't scream at the hair stylist. kathy, the stylist, was very good with jack. she let him follow her around while she got everything ready and she talked him through every step. it also helped that jack had a toy- dental floss- that he played with while he was getting his haircut. jack liked to pull out all the floss and play with the box. luckily, it's a free sample from the dentist and a brand that we don't use:) audrey did wonderfully, too. her hairstylist was all smiles and kept telling me how pretty audrey was:) my kids are so cute!!!

i love the look on his face! he's not happy with me right now:)

doing better now that he has his "toy"

she's not sure about the lady- the stylist was really slow

she's making faces at jack- they were across from each other and could see each other in the mirrors

jack's the man!

two saturdays ago, jack had his first dentist visit. he was amazing!! he sat in the chair, opened his mouth, and let the hygenist count and check his teeth. this past saturday, he went back for his first cleaning and the dentist couldn't stop talking about how wonderful he was being during the cleaning. the only time he moved was when the hygenist would stop to get something and jack woulds it up and ask what everything was:) we're so proud of our big man!

watching the hygenist and her bag of tools

with his balloon- the only reason why he wanted to go to the dentist:)

there's a tv on the ceiling and he's trying to watch caillou
