Joe is hilarious and Lynden is a sweetheart

It is 11:00 at night and yes my 3 year old is still awake bouncing off the walls. He usually stays up late because if he ever wants to see his dad, late is when he gets to see him. Mondays & Wednesdays he goes to bed between 9 and 10 so he isn't too tired for preschool, but the rest of the week he is quite the trooper. He thoroughly enjoys spending time with his best buddy. So tonight Steve got home at 8:23 and left to play basketball at 9:04. Not enough time for Joe so Joe has decided to wait up for him, hoping that they can make a car out of the cardboard box that Lynden's bedding came in today. I, thinking that it is a man's job to know what to do with a cardboard box, volunteered Steve's expertise for the job. We'll see how it goes...
Anyways while we have been waiting Joe has talked on the phone to Grandma Sue, Grandpa Joe, and Aunt Chelsea.
For Grandma Sue and Grandpa Joe he sang, "I like to move it move it. I like to move it move it. I like to move it move it. I like to MOVE IT!" (Madagascar movie) So cute!
He told Grandpa what a good basketball player daddy is and that when he grows up he would like to be a basketball player, an instrument man and a train maker.
He told Grandma he can't wait to see her, Grandpa, Uncle JK and Uncle Ben, but not to bring Ellie the dog. He told her how this week at school is Dr. Seuss week.
He got on the phone with Chelsea and I walked up to him and he said, "You know you're not supposed to talk to me while I'm on the phone." Of course Chelsea was dying laughing really helping out the situation going on about how Joe is her favorite and the funniest boy ever. Luckily soon after that he got off the phone and decided to go "fishing."
Funny funny boy!
Lynden has had a few extremely easy days for me. We had Uncle Bill, Aunt Barb, Ashley, Brittany and Summer over for dinner last night. She ate at the right times, slept at the right times, played at the right times and was a sweet happy girl. Anytime Joe comes around she smiles and laughs at him and tries to copy his screams. I got to cook the entire meal and desserts with not too much stress before they got here. Lynden found her toes yesterday and is enjoying playing and becoming quite the little flexible baby. I love these sweet kids!
