Happy Birthday Chase!

Chase turned 7 yesterday! We took him and 3 friends to Green Canyon on Friday, and then we were going to have a big family dinner on Sunday, but David got sick, so I took the kids and my parents and we went to Leo's. It was way fun. Here he is with his Indiana Jones cake.

"Romantical Dinner"

We had our Valentine's dinner at home with the kids this year, complete with candlelight and flowers. The menu was steak, pasta, salad, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. The kids thought it was cool, and Hannah named it the romantical dinner. She wouldn't let us talk about anything silly like usual, we had to talk about nice things. It was hilarious.

Privacy?

I was cold and decided to take my book and have a bath. David was on the computer, the kids were watching a movie, so I made my move. I turned the water off, reached for my book, and heard tap, tap, tap. "Momma, are you in there?"
"Yes, Chase."
"Can I come in?"
"I'm in the tub."
"I don't care, I want to talk."
"No, I'm taking a break, okay?"
"Momma!"
"Yes, Ryan?"
"Read my Thomas book!"
"Not right now. I'm in the tub."
"You get out!"
"Here, Momma, can you read this from there?" Chase slides a book under the door.
"Chase, where is Daddy?"
"He's on the computer."
"Why don't you ask him to talk or read to you?"
"Because I want you to."
"Momma! Come out! Read Thomas!"
I got a ten minute bath, just enough to warm up. Ain't it fun being a mom?
