More tractors!

So Corbin has an assignment from school to make a scrapbook page all about him. I asked him what he thought we should put on it. No hesitation was needed....TRACTORS!!! I told him okay and asked what else would be good. What did I hear.......Cranes, Excavators, Front End Loaders, Diggers.....etc. You think this kid has a fixation with all things that go or what. This morning he woke up and told me, "I did not know Grandma had a truck" then while rubbing his eyes he tells me he is erasing his dreams. What a card!!! Yesterday he went to Meijers with Dan and sang his little heart out. He sang 1,2, 3 like a bird and sing and then itsy bitsy spider to the cashier. She told him he sings a lot and his response? "I know, I like to sing. I sing to Mommy, Daddy, and Baby Case and they like it cuz I sing good." Lately he gets upset with us and tells us he won't play with us anymore because we are naughty! I find this extremely comical. He is serious as he can be, but how do you take all 36lbs of him serious?

Baby Case is putting together 2 word sentences and is becoming very blatant about what he wants. He is fighting with Corbin over trucks and tractors and I will hear him say, "My tractor! My Truck!" When I met up with Courtney last week to check out the wedding locale, Corbin says, "Where did mama go?" Case then walked all over the house saying, "Mama go, Mama go?"

I am telling you all now, go buy stock in the Chiquita Banana company. (Bananas!) These kids want to eat bananas for morning lunch and dinner. We go through two big bunches a week. I am trying to find some new dinners because I swear we eat the same ole food every day. Last night I made a tuna casserole with peas in it, some cheese, and durkee french fried onions on top. The liked it and both had seconds. Not so much on salad though, which is something we have not had for a long time around here! Beef Roast sandwiches tomorrow I think. Maybe meatloaf tonight, although I have never made it and can't guarantee it will be good. At least it is mixing it up some and Dan is overjoyed because he gets a break from cooking!

We have enough snow now. We need it to warm up a bit so we can all go sledding. We bought a big inter tube that we can go on with Case so I am excited to see what he thinks. They both have snow pants, but neither Dan and I do. Maybe now is a good time to go and see about some cheap ones at Kmart or something! It would make snow blowing and sledding a little more fun! Anyway, time to run.
