Money Song!

Here's another funny! (it has nothing to do with the cute picture of Chelsea & Seth, I just wanted to put up a recent, fun picture of my boy.)
Tonight as we were leaving the store, I decided to show my Mom & Chelsea the money song my kids are loving right now. (for them, it came song AND dance, but you just get the words & you can imagine the silliness)

to the tune of "Mama's Little Baby Loves Shortening Bread"

"I like money. I use it at the store.
Money, money, money, I always want more!

Lincoln's on the 1 cent, Jefferson's on the 5.
Roosevelt's on the 10 cent. Washington's 25.

I like money, I use it at the store.
Money! Money! Money! I always want more!"

There are two more verses, but I'll spare you for tonight. ;)

My kids randomly start singing this throughout the day, or if I sing "I like..." they're in! Yay for learning $$!

Heard just now:

"What did you pay $330 for?"
...
"just because."
"'because' is fun. At least until you get the bill."

Flat Me

There is a cute book called "Flat Stanley". I read it to my kids, & then they got to make their very own "Flat Me". In the book, Stanley mails himself to California & has some grand adventures. The idea is that my kids flat selves will be mailed to a family member or friend to visit, have some adventures, & then come back. The problem is that I have several flat kids with nobody to visit!
If anybody would be interested in having one of these adorable "Flat Me's" come to visit you, please let me know asap! :)
Aren't they cute?

a new haircut!

so... Chelsea's been asking me to cut her hair for a long, long while. Today, she decided what she wanted, & we did it!
At first she said she wanted a pixie cut, but as we looked at styles online, & watched some youtube videos, she had to change her mind & decided on Alice Cullen's haircut... or a "long pixie cut". This morning I couldn't picture the style on her, but tonight I see it & it's oh so cute!

General Conference

Today I've already had the chance to watch 2 sessions of General Conference. I love this chance, twice each year, to listen to Prophets & Apostles, & other leaders in Christ's church. They share messages of hope, peace in a turbulent world, & guidance to strengthen families & individuals. Listening to these inspired men & women, & through them the words of the Lord, inspires me to do & be better, & gives me strength.
I LOVE it!
Tomorrow I get 2 more sessions!
