Hilarious video, and other tidbits

I hope Lenna doesn't get mad at me for posting this video, but I couldn't resist. Mason rode with us to Quaker Steak on Saturday night and wanted to listen to the "Face" song. We were laughing pretty hard. Donovan had to copy everything Mason did too, of course. They always copy each other. We also listened to the "oh oh oh" song, but I didn't get it on video, I was too busy laughing.


Poor Donovan has been sick the past couple of days. It started Wednesday in the middle of the night and I think he's getting better. It didn't really keep him down until he wore himself out. He really can't sit still for more than a few minutes at a time. He actually got sick at the perfect time though! Addi is in Utah with Lenna and Mason so she won't be at our house to catch anything! I think Donovan caught it when we went to Story Time at the library. Why don't people keep their sick kids home? Especially with all the crap going around. They should at least limit their contact with people to necessary trips to the store (we made one of those today and I made sure to sanitize the cart and our hands before and after). I'm just glad none of us have ever had the flu. Anyway, I will probably skip the last 2 hours of church on Sunday, I don't want Donovan to spread or catch anything else!My mom would be really proud of me this week. I bought Oreo's the other day and Donovan really wanted one so I told him he could have one after he ate his lunch. When we got home he refused to eat, all he wanted was his cookie, so I left it alone and whenever he asked for a cookie I told him what he had to do to get one and he would walk away crying. One episode lasted about 5 minutes with him face down on the ground crying. I finally told him if he took 3 bites of his sandwich he could have his cookie. He took 1 bite and refused to look at it anymore, so he took his nap and didn't get any cookies. It took him an hour to take one bite! He is so stubborn! Thankfully, I am pretty stubborn too and I always win. Let the battles begin.

The other day my friend Natalie was saying how adorable she thinks Donovan is and how he should be in magazines (I love when I'm justified in thinking my child is the cutest little boy ever), but then agreed that he is a little stinker and he's really good birth control for her. HA! I feel the same way! There's a reason we haven't given him any siblings yet, he's a handful! The good news is, we haven't had any timeouts in the last couple of days! Maybe it's because he is sick and I'm a softy when he doesn't feel well...
