Lucas says and does the darndest things.......

*Beware....parts of this post may be a little offensive to some...READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!
1. The kids and I were finishing up our father's day shopping. As we were walking through the store, we were talking about what to get David...Luke thought maybe flowers to plant, since this is what they did for me on Mother's Day (by the way, awesome gift). As we were finishing up, Lucas asked, "Can we get something for me, too?" I explained to him that we were shopping for Daddy for Father's day. He replies, "When's it going to be kid's day?" My thought...isn't every day kid's day!

2. The other day, Luke and Lexi were playing in the backyard, and Lyndsey was sleeping. I was taking the opportunity to pump because Lyndsey had already eaten with her Daddy (I had spent the morning away from her). I am simply pumping away, when all of a sudden I hear, "Wooooooooooow...that's awesome." I look up and there is Lucas. He had somehow made his way back into the house and I didn't even hear him. His expressions were hilarious! He was truly amazed! I was actually quite embarrassed...I am a very modest nurser:) Do memories stay in a 3 year old's long term memory? I hope not!

3. The other night we had our VERY dear friends over (who are trying to conceive their first child), and the husband was kind of rough housing with Luke...and of course, Luke punches his "goods". David tries to tactfully explain to Luke why we are careful in that department...something along the lines of childbearing. Lucas replies with, "But Daddy's don't have babies in their tummies...only mommies". Perfect way to end the conversation...Oh, the innocence of a child!

Luke with his best buddy, Madison! Her expression is priceless..."I don't know him!" In Luke's defense, this picture is old...hence, the Huggies!

Luke is so funny. You have to laugh at his pictures. Where does he come up with these ideas.

Those are funny stories. Sammy-my two year old saw me in the nude once and looks up at my chest to ask "what's that?", "buttons?".

Congrats on your new baby! She's a keeper-and Megan's photos are divine.

I love these stories! We're looking forward to meeting the newest addition to the Hepworth family clan this weekend, birthday girl.

Hey Nik- I saw your post on Nicky's and thought I would pop over and say, "hi". I love your kids. I think my little guy and Lucas were cut from similar molds. He too thought there should be a kids day, and he found the breast pump in the closet and thought it was very cool. Hey take care. London (Leavitt)

those stories are so funny!!

I will be in Yuma for like two days and that is it. I will be spending a few days in either Gilbert or Flag though. I will be in Yuma the 22nd and on Sunday the 27th and MOnday the 28th for a little bit. Then I am staying either in Gilbert or Flag the 30th to the 1st. It is a crazy traveling schedule so I totally understand if you can't make it. I can always show you some scrapbooking over the phone and on a computer conference. I stay up late and maybe one night late at night while the kids are sleeping we could get on a computer conference call. let me know if you are interested and I can work it out.
You need to get these stories into a book of your own.
