After making our cakes and deciding that it was time for bed, I gave the boys 15 minutes to get all of their toys and messes cleaned up. I told them that whatever was not picked up was going to get taken by the Gobble Monster. (thanks Aubrey for the idea) After a few minutes they had the downstairs cleaned up pretty good, so I told them to start working on the toy room upstairs. Colby said to me "mom, why did you have to have this idea?" Then Cam pipes up and says, "Mom, are your ideas fun to you? Because they are not fun to us. Your ideas are bored to us." All I could do was laugh and wonder where he learned to talk like that?! Man they are growing up way to fast, I am not ready for smart kids that can think for themselves and talk back. Anyway... after their 15 minutes was up I asked if the toy room was clean and was told that it was, so then Mark put them to bed. When I came upstairs an hour later, this is what I see........................the toy room...........does it look at all cleaned up to you? My boys are so in for it tomorrow!! It's a good thing they don't have school because they would be missing it to clean up this mess!! And the picture does not do the mess justice!!!! And here I am a month away from having another one! What am I doing to myself? Actually, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have these sweet boys to make messes, and I know I will miss them when they are grown! But seriously, who said Cam could grow up and ask questions like, "Mom, are your ideas fun to you?"

Hey April!
I've seen your link on several blogs and decided to check in and see how you are doing. Congrats on your baby! I am excited for you! I think your boys are hilarious! And all the things they say are so funny. They must keep your on your toes night and day. Good Luck in the coming month... I hope it's a girl!
Thanks for letting me stop by,

I love Cam's question…what a great little thought process he has!
You look so cute preggers!
I'm going to use the gobble moster idea. I think my kids would totally buy it. I'm glad our toy room isn't the only messy one some nights. You're baby is coming SO soon! I'm sure you're getting to that miserable phase, good luck with everything. It looks like you found a great new house.
April, I saw that you left a message on Kris's blog. It is so good to see you guys. Your boys are so cute. We miss you alot the Heap reunion just isn't the same without you.
P.S congrats on the baby!
Where do they come up with these things. That is hilarious! At least they attempt to clean up, mine aren't quite there. Well Tristen trys, but only if there is something in it for him!
April,
I was on someone's blog, and came across another and then came across your name. It's good to see how you and your family are doing. Congratulations on your soon-to-be baby.
