Jaren accidently stepped on Ozzy’s toe. Ozzy got very upset and said, “Jaren, don’t you do that again or I will put you in the dungeon.”
November 2009
I love Taylor Swift. It became quite evident yesterday that my children are listening very carefully. While in the car yesterday I had the radio off because I was on the phone with Bry. From the back seat I hear mumbling and humming. As soon as I hang up the phone Jaren starts singing at the top of his lungs, “Marry me Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone. I love ooo and thats all I really know. Talked to your dad go pick out a whaa dress, its a love storeeee, baby just say YES.”

Ozzy is cracking us up these days. He is pretending to talk for Tyler. He says things like, “Mom, I need my milk I am so firsty.” He says them in this really squeaky voice and if I talk to him while he is “being” Ty he wont answer me he just tells me, “I am not Ozzy right now, I am Tywer.”

While watching the sitcom “The Office” Bryant and I are laughing our heads off at Michael Scott (Steve Carell). He is making fun of himself for falling in the Koi pond and then keeps going on about how nerdy he is…Jaren sees us laughing and says, “Boy he is one hilarious man.”
Bryant then tells me I should blog about what Jaren said because it was so funny. He and Jaren are wrestling and Bryant starts tickling Jaren’s bum. Jaren starts laughing and says, “Mom, Dads tickling my bum, that is so funny, maybe you should blog about that one too.”

Ozzy: Mom, Ty is trying to get to level 1, I am going to be turning a level 4.
August 2009
If you shop Costco you might know about Pirate Booty. They are butter flavored corn puffs. The kids just love them. I love them covered in caramel. Anyway, Ozzy comes up to me and Bryant the other day and says, “I want some Pirate Boobies please.” How could I say no?

Ozzy brings me a blanket last night and puts it over my belly. “This is for baby Tyler mom, he is cold.” Then he turns to my tummy, “Here you go Tyler, feel how soft it is.”
June 2009
The boys love talking to my belly. They hug and kiss the baby and talk for him. Ozzy even put things up to my belly and says, “hey baby look at this.” He also puts blankets on me and tells me that the baby is cold.
June 2009
Ozzy loves the letter “S.” He uses words like “smashmellow (marshmellow), spaceball (baseball), and spike (bike). ” No matter how many time we correct him he insists they are what he says they are. The funny part is, he has no problem saying any of his letters so he is just choosing to makeup the words.
June 2009
Jaren was helping me clean up the basement and I gave him a huge handful of stuff to take up stairs. He yells at Ozzy to come down. He then passes as much stuff off to Ozzy as Ozzy can hold and orders him to put them in their bedroom. Jaren then turns to me and says, “We are brothers Mom and we work as a team.”
May 2009
Ozzy keeps saying he wants to see Junus Carlos. I have no idea who that is. While we are driving he points to Carls Jr. and yells, Mom lets go to Junus Carlos house. Oh, I get it.
May 2009
We bought a new van and the doors open automatically from the keychain. Bryant told Ozzy all he had to do was say “Open Sesame” and the door would magically open for him. I told him yesterday to go get in the car, I had to grab my purse and phone. By the time I got to the garage he was screaming, “I said open sesame, now open.” I pushed the button so the door would open and he says, “dats better door, thanks.” Funny kid.

Ozzy is in his bedroom playing trains by himself. This is the conversation I overhear,
Ozzy: TRACKS, don’t break that makes me angry. That makes me talk fast to you, now don’t break.

We made pancakes for breakfast. As we are at the table eating, Jaren says, “Thanks for making me breakfast Mom, oh and one more thing” his index finger is pointed and lifted in the air to show the number one and his mouth is wide open. I am waiting for him to finish and he exclaims, “BBUURRRPPPP!” What a boy, and darn cute too!
May 2009
We are at the Credit Union and Ozzy yells he has to go to the bathroom now. I take him but he wont let me go in with him. I leave the door cracked open barely so I can see him but he can’t see me. He lifts the lid up and does his thing. As he is finishing he shakes his “little thing” and says, “Ah, dat feels better.”

Jaren: Hey Mom I caught the gold fish in my arm, it didn’t fall.

Ozzy: I like ketchup on my legs.

Mom: Ozzy, would you like a bite of my salad?
Ozzy: No, I don’t eat “leafs”. (leaves)
April 2009
Its late at night and Ozzy is whining in his bed. Bryant goes in to check on him. We have told him that part of getting big sometimes means that our bodies hurt. When his body grows it can be uncomfortable. I think he understood quite perfectly what we were trying to tell him.
Dad: Ozzy are you ok?
Ozzy: I don’t want to be big, I want to stay little.
Dad: Do your legs hurt buddy?
Ozzy: Yeah

Bryant woke me up at about 3 am to give me a big hug and pat my belly, then he rolled over. When I asked him about it in the morning he couldn’t remember.

Jaren yells at me from the bathroom. “Mom come here you gotta see this.” I go in and he is proudly showing me his pooh. He says, “there are so many mom, lets count them all…1,2,3,4..I think there are more but I cant see em all they fell down the hole.”
February 2009
We have family pow wows. We sit in a circle on the floor and hold hands and then talk about our favorite things. Last night Ozzy was so excited to tell what his favorite things were that he put them together like this, “My fav fav favorite pow wow train is Hot Wheels Henry.” (Henry is a Thomas and Friends train)

We are driving home from Grammy’s house and talking about the moon. It is just a sliver. Jaren says, “Mom the moon needs a drink so he can be full.”

I picked the kids up from school today and on the way home Ozzy says, “Be careful driving mom, I don’t want you to break the moon.” Whatever you say sweetheart was the only thing I could think to say back.

Its 4 am to you know where you husband is? Mine stole my pillow last night from under my head and started hitting the light fixture while yelling, “burn the witch”. I had to make him stop because he was about to knock our light right on top of me. Crazy sleeper!
December 2008
Its 2 am and we are sound asleep. All of the sudden my husband jumps up out of bed and starts swatting the ceiling. I ask him what he is doing and he informs me that he is getting the spidey web things that are spitting at us down so we can sleep. Swat away baby, swat away.
December 2008
We are in the car and Jaren asked what a bicycle was. I said “Jaren you know what a bike is. Bicycle is just the long word for bike.” Jaren gets it and then about 30 seconds later says, “hey mom shortcut is a long word.”
December 2008
We talked about eternal families today and I asked Jaren if he knew what an eternal family was. He said “its when kids get lost and dont know where to go. Eternal families find them and bring them back.”
December 2008
Jaren asked me if I wanted to go to Disneyland with him. I said sure, and he took me to his room. He walked over to the radiator heater, played with the knob, turned the switch on, and sat on his lego bucket. He told me to sit next to him. We counted to 10 and he said, “Here we are mom, do you like Disneyland?”
November 2008
Ozzy was trying to tell me that Green Goblin from Spiderman threw pumpkin balls. This is exactly what he said, “geen gobin tow pumtin balls mama” I tried to assure him that Green Goblin did not throw pumpkin balls when Jaren says “Yes he does mom, they are small orange balls that are pumpkins.” Then Ozzy says, “tod yu mama.” He already knows I told you so. How funny.
November 2008
Bryant was blessing the sacrament at church. Jaren asked him why he was doing that. Bryant told him it was part of his priesthood responsibilities. Jaren says, “Was it so you can pay the bills dad?”
