My Toddler
Having to take care of a three year old is a task especially when I think my son just went crazy this past week.
"Don't lick your brother."
"Why Mom?"
"People don't lick people you can't act like the cat."
While he is licking his arm like the cat and running it over his head. Then he comes to lick me.
"You can't lick me if I can't lick you back!"
Now, I'm running after him pretending to want to lick him as he runs and hide behind his big brother. He is screaming and laughing.
"No mom don't lick me that's gross. Jay stop her!"
If that was bad enough he jumps off the bed I catch him in mid air.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm Iron Man mom I just got my flight power back!"
"Well you just scared me to death don't jump off the bed."
"Why Mom?"
Okay we are now in the "WHY" stage where now I have to come up with a reason why people can't fly.
"People can't fly in the house."
"Okay, Mom sorry Jay mom said we can't fly in the house let's go outside."
I seen that one coming!
"Put the turtles down they can't fight like the Ninja turtles."
He walks away only to find him talking to the turtles asking them what swords and guns they want to use to fight.
"No, Christopher Mickey doesn't want to play with the turtles!"
As he trying to put the cat in the pool with the turtles.
He has been non stop all day everyday for the past week. No naps it's like his batteries won't die out. Yup, He is crazy I don't know what else to call it when he is outside running around jumping off the lawn furniture tackling his brother and putting him in a head lock. I guess mommy and daddy can't watch MMA fighting anymore. He dressed up the cat in his Iron Man costume. That didn't go over very well with Mickey the cat she was just a little mad. Tonight he was just running back and forth in the house for no apparent reason but to do it. He has discover his penis like a boy he walked outside with it hanging out.
"Put your penis away Christopher!"
"Why Mom?"
There is that WHY again.
"You can't be outside with your body parts hanging out."
"It's mind mom."
"Yes, I know just go get in the pool."
Okay, I think that was it nope he is now skinny dippin in the pool. I get him dressed to feed my boys dinner now he is sitting on the floor sharing his tacos with the cat. I don't know what is wrong with him. All I can do is laugh because this is not even half of my week. I still love being a mom. He makes me laugh for sure. There is not a dull day in The Needham Household.

What's important to you?
A loving Father. |
SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a question?"
DAD: "Yeah sure, what is it?"
SON: "Daddy, how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?"
SON: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "If you must know, I make $100 an hour."
SON: "Oh! (With his head down).
SON: "Daddy, may I please borrow $50?"
The father was furious.
DAD: "If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior."
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?
After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think:
Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $ 50 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.
DAD: "Are you asleep, son?"
SON: "No daddy, I'm awake".
DAD: "I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier. It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $50 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up, smiling.
SON: "Oh, thank you daddy!"
Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.
DAD: "Why do you want more money if you already have some?"
SON: "Because I didn't have enough, but now I do.
"Daddy, I have $100 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness. It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $100 worth of your time with someone you love? If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family and friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family.
Some things are more important.

Today & Yesterday
He was quiet in the car on the way to the YMCA. He was sleeping that's why no complaints here gave me a rest. He loves to go play with the kids in the kids zone it's like a daycare while I workout. I ran for 30 minutes burned 350 calories then I worked my legs and back. I was exhausted by the end. I love this YMCA Justin can come workout with me. It's nice to spend time just the two of us. I took a brake from working my thighs to take a picture of him on the bike which he burned 13 calories. He was really excited showing me his muscles. I think we will continue this just like our Coffee Day Friday which is where we drink coffee but his is decaffeinated.

Father and Sons
you would hold me in your arms.
I felt the love and tenderness,
keeping me safe from harm.
You are my father.
I would look up into your eyes,
and all the love I would see.
Your big heart really show who you are.
How did I get so lucky,
you were the dad chosen for me.
There is something special
about a father's love.
It's something you don't ask for it's something given without a thought.
Seems you were sent to me
from someplace up above.
I'm really happy you are here for me.
Our love is everlasting, just a father and son.
I want to be just like you dad.
I just wanted you to know.
That you’re my special hero
and I wanted to tell you so.

Father & Son Bonding time
A father is respected because
he gives his children leadership...
appreciated because
he gives his children care...
valued because
he gives his children time...
loved because
he gives his children the one thing
they treasure most - himself.

Father & Son Bonding Time
The most important thing a little boy needs is a father in his life. Someone to be there for him. Someone to tell him he can do it. Someone to show him how to shave. Take care of his duties as a man. Someone who works hard at everything in life. Someone who treats his wife like the Mexican Queen that I am. A father who can be emotionally available to his children will be the one who knows when his sons needs him. My hubby makes our children talk their emotions out. He never raises his voice to intimated our kids he has a soft voice to help them understand how they feel. Nothing our children say is bad we put their emotional needs first. What they need is Daddy to be there. My hubby takes time out to always put our boys first. I love watching Justin and Christopher attack him as he walks in the door. Jay is attached to his hip as Christopher is attached to his leg. My hubby puts them first in everything he does. I'm happy I made the right choice in a man who loves our boys more then his life itself. My hubby is not forced to spend time with our children, he does it because he wants to. My hubby's face lights up every time he hears daddy and the boys attack him. Having children really changes the way you think and feel. My hubby's smile can light up the room when our boys run after him. It doesn't matter what is planned he always has time to play Lego's with Justin and dino's with Christopher. I love the fact I married a man with a great heart and soul. Someone who values family as much as I do. I'm very happy for the life God has given me. A man who will stand by me no matter what. The best father to our children a woman could ever ask for.
This is the shark they caught but let go. Hearing Justin talk about his daddy holding a shark was priceless. It's clear that daddy is his hero!

Spending time with my boys
Day 22:
I don't know where I found this quote online but I love it. I had to share it with you all. This week my boys and I have done nothing but hang out together. It is so much fun being a stay at home mommy. We made the sign together below in the picture. It has been a busy week Justin started school. Christopher put on big boy underwear. He was walking around the house saying"I'm a big boy!" He is just too cute and adorable. This morning Justin slept in when he woke as he was walking through the house Christopher says" Morning baby." He then gives Justin the biggest hug ever a kiss on the cheek. My boys have my heart forever! I'm putting this moment in their baby books.

Brothers
I have been taking my boys out to the park to play this past week. Christopher needs a little help to fall asleep. Justin and I will take a walk as I push the stroller. It's something we use to do when he was little now we will have mother and son talks. There is so much life in Justin. He is always happy and has a smile that lights up any room. He is a great Big brother. He always puts his little brother first. He will sit for hours and play with Christopher. I know they are still little but they have an unbreakable bond. Christopher loves to be near his Big brother as this picture will tell. I couldn't push the stroller unless Christopher held Justin' s hand. I'm very proud to be a mom their mom.
