Hmmm... Boy Children

Do you see the flour footprints on the floor? You may be wondering what they lead to. Well, let me show you...

THIS! This is what they lead to!!! Porter was caught flour footed! All the dried beans, flour and split peas are now in a nice mound in the kitchen. When did this happen? Oh just 3 0' clock in the MORNING!!! It just so happens Porter has had a cold, and when he gets them he gets asthmatic, so he has to use an inhaler. His inhaler makes him CRAZY HYPER. It makes him do crazy things, you know, like dumping out our food in the middle of the night. I could hear something and it woke me up. I called Porter into our room and when I was helping him onto our bed I could feel his hands were wet. My first panicky thought was he had been in the toilet. Luckily he was just making flour and bean cakes in the bathroom. Good thing the naughty things he does are funny at the same time. Good thing he is cute. Good thing he says funny things like, "The beans are tickling my foot," because there are beans in his pajamas.

Porter and Shawn practicing. Porter likes to practice out of his spiderman coloring book.

We are so lucky to have this little guy. I guess he wanted to go out of the twos with a bang!!! I can't believe he's almost 3.

Now I just hope this one stays sweet and calm!

* Breaking News! That mound of food is about 1/3 of what was actually there; the rest was hiding under the shelves. I was also unaware when I wrote this post the mound was CRUSTED to the shelves. Yay for Taffie's water and flour.

Funny kiddo

So today Porter was outside playing and came to the door to ask me for a knife. I got him some plastic utensils thinking he wanted them to dig in the dirt. No, his plan was to cut down the neighbor's fence. He came back to the door because he was unsuccessful and wanted me to try. It was so funny/sad. He wanted to go play so badly he was trying to cut down the fence. I called the nieghbor, but unfortunately they were just leaving. Poor kid. Maybe we'll have to cut down the fence another day.

Just some pics

Another Porterism

Jesus Russell Mangum. I don't mean to be sacreligous, but I just wanted to share what Porter said today. If you need any explanation, read the last post. ;) Also, congrats to my cousin Ryan who just had cute twin boys!!! Yay!

2 Months Old!!!

I can't believe our little Livie is 2 months old!!! Wow, how time flies! She is starting to smile and coo. She couldn't be any sweeter. What more could I ask for!? She even sleeps through the night!!! Porter has been really good with her. He has only tried to pick her up once. ;) That little boy is so funny. He amazes me each day at how much he learns. We've been working at learning his full name, Porter Russell Mangum. So now he thinks everybody's name ends in "Russell Mangum." I am Mama Russell Mangum and Shawn is Daddy Russell Mangum. We now have a working laptop, so hopefully posts will be more regular! And now for some eyecandy!

She's here!!!!

There are our cuties!!! Porter and Olivia Marie. She weighed 7lbs 5 oz and was 19 1/2" long. Who knows where her hair comes from! Porter was as bald as could be!!! She is so sweet and we are loving getting to know her!

Long time no post!!

Wow! It's been a LONG time!!! I thought I better put some things up because Mr. Porter is getting big SO FAST!!! Some favorite words he says: Dinosaur= Fwarfwar, Game=Gamee, Pizza= Pizzee. His loves right now are tractors, being outside and a giant cardboard box that a tuba came in. He will play with it forever. We are all doing good! I am getting a big belly and am now almost 31 weeks pregnant. Shawn is busy, busy with marching band as they are beginning their competitions. Go Herriman Mustangs!!!
