Top Ten {Tuesday}: My Kiddos’ Favorite Things

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on April 20, 2010

I asked my kiddos about their favorite things today, thinking they would say things like ice cream and cookies, but I quickly realized that I am the only one with food on my mind all. the. time. LOL

Here’s what they said::

1. If you know anything about Noah, you know he loves Mickey. Of course, when I asked Noah, he didn’t even let me finish the question before he yelled, “MICKEY!”

2. The first thing out of Ben’s mouth was “my big dinosaur.” I can certainly attest to the fact that he’s pretty attached to his Monty!

4. Playing football with Dad is what Josh said. He definitely loves spending time with Dad, so he also said, “playing soccer with Dad,” and “playing catch with Dad.”

5. Josh is a big fan of numbers and is constantly making sure the equations he does in his head are correct. I should not have been surprised when Josh said he loves to thinking about numbers…. Yet, it floored me!

6. Julia said that her Littlest Pet Shop pets are some of her favorite things. She’s not much in to toys – she’d rather write, draw, or do crafts – but she does love her LPS collection!

7. “Doing my school,” was the second thing that Julia mentioned as a favorite. Her all-time favorite thing to do in school and out? Reading.

8. What nine-year-old boy doesn’t love to explore? Well, it’s one of Zach’s favorite things to do.

9. Building stuff with Legos comes in at a close second for Zach, but falls in first place for Ethan. And who said identical twins were exactly alike?

10. If Ethan is playing out front, you’ll most likely see him on his Shred Sled cruising down the street. I was going to answer my own question for him if he didn’t say his Shred Sled. Lucky for him, he did. {Do you not know what a Shred Sled is? Check it out – You’ll see why it’d be a favorite.}

It was funny to see how many of my kiddos’ favorite things aren’t things at all, but are ways to spend time. Love it!

Top Ten {Tuesday}: Random Things You May Not Know About Me

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on April 13, 2010

1. Although my family and most dinner guests may think I am a good cook, I do not like to cook.

2. I love to bake, especially with my kiddos.

3. I think I am a better mom to boys than girls. {I think God knows this too, hence the five boys and only one girl.}

4. That said, I’d really like to have another daughter.

5. Spiders scare the pee out of me.

6. I would rather clean toilets than fold and put away laundry. {Yes, really.}

7. Sour candy is the best thing ever. I love me some Sour Patch Kids!

8. You do not want to talk to me before 9am. I do not like mornings.

9. My husband is my best friend.

10. I love the water, but have an intense fear of drowning.

How’s that for a list of random? I’m pretty sure you can’t get more random than that!
