Tales From the Car

We spend a lot of time in the car and as a result, I have a lot of funny stories about car trips. Here are a few recent highlights from my boys.

Joshua loves for me to "Turn on the maps" i.e. use the Navi system while I am driving. Here's how a recent conversation on Woodbine Rd went:
Joshua: Look Mommy, that's Alligator Lake
Me: Wow! That does look like an alligator. Good job!
Joshua: We don't want to go swimming there.
Me: Because of the alligators?
Joshua: *sigh* No, because of the sharks!

Our favorite cd to listen to in the car these days is Bare Naked Ladies Snack Time. It's a very entertaining cd. I like the Ninja song, Noah likes the popcorn song and the howling at the moon song, and Joshua likes 7, ATE 9 and the bad day song. All in all it's very entertaining and I recommend it to parents and children everywhere. Thank you Aunt Stoppie for this awesome cd!

Noah continues to take off both his shoes and his right sock when we are in the car. I still want to know why???

Joshua made me a very happy mommy the other day. While we were driving home from day care he told me "When I'm big, I'm going to be an engineer!"

Noah's new favorite saying is to say "I'm a happy!" I'm so blessed to have such a sweet, good-mannered little boy (actually two, because Joshua's a sweetheart too).

Both my boys love to sing. Joshua was recently in the car singing "I'm sexy and I know it" which was both funny and wildly inappropriate. Mommy's going to have to pay more attention to what is on the radio! Now to make up for that last story I'll share this one. Joshua was riding in the car and we were listening to k-love on the radio and a song came on that said "Jesus rise from the grave" and Joshua was like "Oh, I like this song, 'Jesus ride the waves..."
