Daria’s Life

The other day I wasn’t wearing earrings at all. Joshy was sitting on my lap and started playing with my hair then he noticed my ears without earrings and exclaimed “Mommy!!!! You have lot’s of HOLES in your head!!!!”

“Hey Joshy, do you want some cereal for breakfast?” I ask this morning
then with sweet bright eyes and the thumbs up sign he says “DEFINITELY!!!”

Good morning - I hope that everyone had a fabulous holiday weekend. Our little boys were darling and enjoyed the events that we planned for them. On Friday we took them to the church gym to play basketball and it was awesome - Dylan did so well and the little ones loved running around in [...]

This morning Joshy (3 years) decided it was high time that Noah was returned to where ever he came from. “Mommy Noah wants to go to HIS house far away.”
“this is his house Joshy, he’s our baby” I said
“No, he misses his Mommy!” He replied
“Joshy honey, I’m Noah’s Mommy and your Mommy”
“You’re not his Mommy, [...]

While sitting on my lap today Joshy saw a picture of Nathan’s Grandma with Dylan. He said “Mommy - who’s that?”
“That’s Dylan with your Great Grandma” I said
“I LOVE THAT GRANDMA!!!” he said emphatically
too cute - I love that kid and had to share this story especially with Nathan’s Dad.

Joshua thinks he’s a REAL COMEDIAN, he’s three and told me his first ever joke the other day.
Joshy - “Knock Knock”
Mom - “Who’s there?” (in a surprised tone cuz he’s never told a joke before)
Joshy - “A DOG AND A BANANA !!!!!!!!!!!!” HAHAHAHAHAHA - he squeals and laughs at himself
I have to admit the joke [...]

I have implemented a few of the techiniques into my parenting that Jo Frost uses on her SUPER NANNY show. I have to say that they work!!! I’m thrilled. Joshy my three year old is a joy to be around now, he’s far more polite, he’ll eat up at the table and doesn’t pick on [...]

Joshy just came running up to me in the other room with tears streaming down his face
“Mommy!!!!! Brigs isn’t moving!!!”
OK my heart lept and all I could think was that my two year old was unconscious on the floor or something and I started running through whatever emergency procedures I know while running into the [...]

Our spunky 3 year old Joshy is totally in love with his new baby brother. He’s the supreme authority on anything “he thinks” that Noah might need. Unfortunately he keeps calling his brother Evan instead. Evan is his little cousin that came to visit us before Noah was born. Joshua thinks Evan is the cat’s [...]

Oh the frustration, the embarrassment. Nathan and I took the boys to the Dental School yesterday, the nurses wanted to meet Noah and see Brigs and Joshy too. Big mistake - my two toddlers get in the door and start running in two different directions. They didn’t know what to do with themselves, all that [...]
