Out of the mouths of babes

Okay. This is my first time blogging EVER. Please bear with me while I get my bearings. First I will tell you a little about myself. I am in my early thirties and married to a wonderful man/father. We have been married almost 10 years. We have three wonderful (and yes, sometimes awful) children. Two girls ages 3 and 5 and a 1 yr old boy. They are the best things that ever happened to my husband and I. I am a stay-at-home mom. There are days that I love it and days that make me think my kids would be better at a babysitters house!! Even on those days I wouldn't trade my life for the world. God has blessed me more than I could have ever imagined. I live in the midwest, but would love to live somewhere different. It' s not that I don't like the midwest, I have just lived here my whole life and would like to try living somewhere different. Anyway, enough about me for now. I'm sure you will get to know more about me after I start blogging some more :)

Here is what my blog is all about today. I have three children and it always amazes me what comes out of their mouths and their interpretations about things. For example, today my five year old told me she is so excited because she is starting to get brown (tan) skin. When I asked her why she told me because then she can start speaking Spanish!! For some reason she thinks when you get "tan" you can speak Spanish. She has been going around the house all day talking in a made up language. She thinks she is talking Spanish! Whenever we run into someone who speaks Spanish, my five year old says that she can't wait to grow up and get brown skin and speak Spanish. My five year old has blondish hair and blue eyes!! I don't know why she thinks this, but it is kinda funny.

One of the main reasons why I wanted to start blogging is because I am so bad about keeping up baby books and scrapbooking and I don't want to forget some of the things they say or do. I figured this would be a great way for me to keep track of it. Thanks for bearing with my first blog.
