Summer Stuff

On Father's Day, Kellan asked "How many cousins does Monty have?" and I answered "Counting you guys, seven" - "How many cousins does Lyla and Phoebe have?" and I answered "Counting you guys, ten" (hopefully I'm right on both those counts).  He was disappointed for a minute realizing he has three, then he got very excited "I'm going to have four cousins soon..."  

Willow Jane Kabisch was born late that night on Father's Day.  She's the kids fourth cousin,  and we are all so excited she's here - I just wish we were where "here" is to see her.  Congratulations Debi, Tim and Monty!

There has been a lot of questioning around whether Dexter has reached his terrible "2's."  Kellan and Zoe went through their terrible "3's" (questionable whether Zoe is carrying those years into her 4, & 5's).  Kellan and Zoe aren't the best examples.  Kellan and I were pretending to do karate the other day, Kellan decided to take it a bit far and kick me, seconds later Dexter came running over and proceeded to kick me in the shins non-stop.  "No" is a big word in his vocabulary.  He is very polite.  Now says "Thank you Mommy" - "Thank you Daddy", "Bless you" and "Your welcome."  At least we've taught him some positives.  


The cast came off!  As a warning - don't ask about it, Zoe is still totally embarrassed and absolutely goes crazy if there's any mention.  Regardless, we are happy to put it behind us especially with the heat.  She's as good as new.

Dexter has to do everything the kids do.  I trust the almost 8 yr old a little too much lately...





Mascot from other CO teams were at the event 
Our personal favorite - Dinger

Saturday was in the 90's, but once the sun went behind a cloud, D was so cold
There was no stopping him...other than us having to lift him to the top each time since it's too steep to climb.


I can rarely get the videos to work consistently.  So here's a link to You Tube with a montage of Dexter videos.

Last kid's quote



Dexter's first quote:

Mom: "Are you my big boy?"
Dexter: "No. Baby"

Zoe talking about a Ke$ha song - a whole 'nother blog there.

Zoe: "Mom, will you play "Tank Top"?"
The song is "Tik Tok"
