Yesterday afternoon I was running errands.. and on that little errand jaunt I passed the hospital and LITERALLY thought.. "I haven't taken our kids to the emergency room since #2 was a baby!" 

You know what happens when a mom says that?

goose egg, knot on the head, head injury, child

Sweet #5 and his goose egg.

I took all my kids to church and #5 was running in the youth room.. tripped and hit his head on a chair.  The result is that huge goose egg. 

Here's what the goose egg looks like today.

PS That kid has some SERIOUS eyebrows

kids, cooking, in the kitchen, love to cook, pickle sandwich

This is #5.  He is 6 years old.. he has the biggest brown eyes and the longest eyelashes. ( I love that he looks slightly ornery with his new missing tooth.)  He has spent the majority of his life as the baby until 9 months ago when this kid came along.

#6

Now he's the baby.  #5 has been struggling for his new place in the family.. as the used-to-be baby.  On his road to becoming a big kid, he asked if he could make himself a sandwich. I said sure, and he went to the kitchen to make it.  

When the word "sandwich" is mentioned I think of this Hey Arnold:

Suzie! Make me a sandwich!

 

I thought he would come back with a peanut butter and jelly.  Or maybe a ham sandwich with mayo and mustard.  He didn't do any of those. 

He made a ketchup and dill pickle sandwich.  GROSS.  I watched him.. and he ate EVERY BITE. ewww…  Double points on the cute Winter-y plate too!

I was browsing though some old pictures and found this one.

Here is #5 and sweet baby #6.

This is the day he came home from the hospital.

They are pretty cute huh?  Wanna see if that kid has grown?

Maybe he has…

Just a little.

Today is my sweet baby #5's birthday.. He requested ham and cheese hobbits (aka to most people.. an omelet), biscuits and gravy (on another plate) and a chocolate doughnut.

#5 is a funny kid… This morning I was making his breakfast and he walked in and said; "Oh yea, you're making my breakfast! Keep it up!"

On this day.. with the muddy feet.. I didn't think he was so funny. One thing about this kid.. he likes to GET dirty.. but he hates to BE dirty. Which makes for a BIG laundry day when he goes outside to play.

Happy Birthday You Filthy Animal!
