The Funny Things They Say.....Part 123,567,234

Katie:

On our drive home from W Palm Beach for Thanksgiving, we made a pit stop. Katie said she didn't need to use the restroom. Ten minutes down the road, Katie says she has to go poopie. Mommy says "Well, you will just have to hold it." Her reply? "I have to hold the poopie in my hand?"

Brady:

When he tooted this morning, Daddy asked "Brady, what was that?"
Brady replied with a giggle "There's a duck in my pants!"

Katie:
We put the Christmas decorations out today. Katie helped me put out the Nativity set while the Lanigan males went to CVS (or PB&J as Brady calls it) to get a string of lights. I ask Katie who Baby Jesus' daddy is. She said "Joe-fuss!" It sounds so funny!

My last thought before I close, why does she think its funny when her brother goes in timeout?

Our update....

It's been a busy couple of months and we haven't felt much like celebrating. I have tried to write this post a few times and could never get it right, so here goes....Rob's sister, Kelly, passed away peacefully on 9/12/08 in her sleep with her mom and dad and partner Richelle nearby. Aunt Kel, as B&K loved to call her, will be greatly missed. She had bravely battled breast cancer for 4 years and in July decided to stop all treatments and scans so that she could enjoy her days. Our family is in pain and we all really miss her.

I called Mimi's cell phone today and Kelly had recorded her voicemail greeting about a year ago. It was the first time Rob and I had heard her voice and we both took it hard. Brady noticed our sadness and immediately went up stairs to retrieve his favorite blanket and the stuffed Tiger that she had given him. He took them to Rob and told him that they would make him feel better. They did, too.

Back in the spring, Rob and I committed to walking in the Breast Cancer 3Day walk in Tampa Bay (60 mile walk over 3 days). This walk benefits the Susan G Komen foundation. Rob has raised almost $2200 and I have raised almost $4000. We had hoped that Kelly would be there at the closing ceremonies with us. She was so excited that we were doing this walk and while we know she will be pushing us along- we know we will cross the finish line with heavy hearts. Please pray for us- that we will have the strength and endurance to make it through on 10/31-11/2.

Love- Tam

First Day of Pre-K3


The monkeys are back in school as of Monday. It is so quiet in the house now and I LOVE IT! They seem to really like their new school. We are completely day-time potty trained (will work on night time soon!) so they are in the official "big kid" class!
