Collages

 
Dylan

 
Grant (I had to take a double take on a few of these, I thought some were Jack)

Jack

Glass Frog Description

Dinner conversation:
Dylan:  Hey did you know there is this frog called a glass frog?
Family:  No, why is it called a glass frog?
Dylan:  Because it has this clear skin and you can see the testicles and the bones and everything!
Family (Laughing hysterically)  Wow, you can even see the testicles?
Dylan:  Yea, why are you laughing?
Family: Dylan, think about what testicles are.
Dylan (now laughing hysterically)  Oh, I meant the intestines.

Meet Jack the Brave



Jack had a bone marrow test done at Children's Hospital today.  He was so brave and so sweet and so darn cute in the blue hospital jammies. What a blessing he is to those around him.

It doesn't add up...

I just got finished playing a million (ok it was only 5) games of 'Don't Break the Ice' with Grant.
 
If you're not familiar with the game, it goes a little like this: 1.Put the blue ice rink together. 2. Shove, push, squish and contort the 2,000 (ok it's only 25) ice cubes into the tray.  3.Flip the tray over and quickly try to grab the skating bear and insert him into an ice cube before your son tries it and breaks the ice before the game even starts, if that happens, repeat steps 1& 2. 4. Take your chosen hammer and smack the ice cubes preferably ONE at a time trying NOT to be the one who lets the bear fall through the ice.  5. Repeat all steps in approximately 3 seconds after your inpatient  son (who has been warned to go slow and take his time) smashes all the ice cubes and runs around the house swinging his hammer and yelling 'YEA, I WON!' 
Preparation time:  Way too looooooong!
Playing time: 3 seconds
Grant loves the game and I usually end up laughing at him hysterically (or maybe I'm just hysterical) by the time we are finally finished.  Now, slow down, don't break the door down on your way out to buy 'Don't Break the Ice.'

Double Overtime!

 
Dylan made the basket that tied his game up tonight in the last 3 seconds!  They had double overtime and ended up winning by 2 points.  It was awesome, we were all yelling and jumping up and down and clapping.  The kids were so excited, almost as excited as their coaches!  Way to go Celtics and way to go Dylan, we're so proud of your hard work!
