Liam's Rules

There are several Liam rules. We have random sayings but for the most part he is giving more frequent "rules" that he recalls and states more and more. Here are a few:

1.) "I am the only one can drink juice boxes in Liam's house."

2.) "Keya (Kuya) no bite my shirt." - Marq pretends to bite his stomach when he tickles him.

3.) "No mommy take bath." - He tells daddy this. For some reason I am not allowed to give him a bath. This of course will have to change next week when Ben starts school.

4.) "Keya take out the trash." - Already a given. Liam just seems to think he came up with that chores for his brother.

Build and Grow - School Bus

Liam and I went to The Lowe's Build and Grow last Saturday. By far, this seems to be his favorite. He has been playing with this bus since we put the hammer down.

Ultimate Gamer

For Marq's Honor Roll last year, his dad got him a XBOX 360 and we go him some games. So of course, he has been playing quite a bit during the summer. We have been good limiting his hours and he has been good keeping up with his chores and helping with Liam. His taste in games are similar of my brother, Beej, with a little influence of Ben. He does however still plays my online game on the computer, but the rule has been keep up with grades and your band then the XBOX can stay in your room... Check out the toy box that is still in his room. Grandma gave that to him several years ago and he is determined to keep forever. Liam loves Spiderman now and we asked him if he could give it to his brother and we would buy him a new storage trunk. Let us just say he quickly said no. (We can not find that Spiderman toy chest anywhere. Liam will prolly end up with Thomas.) I thought it was cute. There are just somethings he wants save as a keepsake. He is truly Grandma's Grandson.

Bubble Mower

Ben and I go for walks at night and Liam likes to join us. For the most part, Ben will pull him in a wagon but lately Liam likes to walk next to us. But then grows tired soon after. We bought him this bubble mower to see if this will extend his walking power. So far so good.

Silver Dollar City

"Hold on tight Mommy!"

"Kuya get off my train!"

We headed out to Silver Dollar City last weekend. The boys had a blast. Liam got to ride a train. Marq made a sand sculpture in a bottle. And we got soaked in Splash Harbor. Liam even braved the roller coasters and other rides in the kid's amusement park. Fearless like Kuya was.

Down at the Creek

We went back to the creek again a couple of weeks ago. By Liam's request, of course. Lots or rocks and mud. We definitely have started looking up more river and creek options. This area is just off the Wildwood trails outside of Joplin.

This will be my catch up and posting time.

I have not done much posting for last month so this is make up time...
