When you're the best of friends...


(Lyrics from Disney's Fox and the Hound)

When you're the best of friends,
Having so much fun together,
You're not even aware you're such a funny pair,
You're the best of friends.



Life's a happy game,
You could clown around for ever,
Neither one of you sees your natural boundaries,
Life's one happy game. 




If only the world wouldn't get in your way,
If only people would just let you play,
They'd say you're both being fools,
You're breaking all the rules...



They can't understand,
The magic of your wonderland. 



When you're the best of friends,
Sharing all that you discover,
When these moments have passed,
Will that friendship last?



Who can't say there's a way?
Oh I hope,
I hope it never ends,




Cause you're the best of friends...

Sunday funday...

Aren't Sunday's just fabulous? There is just something about this day that makes me happy. We relax a little more, get ready for the week, play outside, catch up on house work, and enjoy each other so much.

I feel more productive on Sundays, more "go get 'em", more ready to tackle the week.

Radley must feel the same way, too. As Ryan and I were getting all of our stuff organized we looked up to find Radley "organizing" as well. But, well, his organizing just meant another mess for Mom and Dad to clean up. We just had to laugh and wanted to share his version of organizing with you.

As a lead in, he is organizing his train table. If you have ever had to put one of these together you would know that the tracks only fit on the table in one pattern (with slight variations). It took Ryan about an hour to get it together the first time so we have made sure to never take it a part. Radley had other plans.




And if it wasn't proof enough he is mine with his loud presence, dramatic attitude, and love for organizing,about two minutes in,  you will hear him instruct us to "keep the video on"... hmmm, someone likes attention.

I tried uploading the video, but blogger had other plans! :( That combined with my new iPhoto is driving me crazy!
 
Have a great week!

Tiny Tales Thursday...

The joys of having a boy are numerous.

Not as many accessories.
No "fixing" hair.
Only need one nice pair of pants.
Dirt.
Trucks.
Blocks.
NO dolls (which with 2 older brothers, I wasn't a huge fan of)
Once potty trained, the world is their restroom (good and bad).
Tiny little underwear.
Mommas boy. :)

Etc...

However, there are times when I cringe at what may come next...

Last night Radley, Emmy and I were playing in the living room. We were just giggling and laughing and waiting for Daddy to come home. When I look up to see Radley has pulled his pants all the way down and is tugging on well, ya know.

Me: Radley! What are you doing?!?!
Radley: as if nothing is wrong with this picture I itching, Mommy. My peanuts itches.

Oh yes... the joys of having a boy.
