Coleman hair
To this:
I actually didn't get a picture of the finished mohawk...it was a whole lot shorter. To finally (and thankfully) this:
I think I have him convinced of a "cute" boy haircut next. Hopefully I can continue convincing him of that!!! Thank you Ruthie for cutting it the way he wanted!
Today Coleman was doing his homework and I noticed him rubbing his hair (or fuzz) alot. I asked him about it and he said, "oh ya... I rub my head when I am trying to think."

Completely Mobile
Oh Mr. President
Me: Chloe who is the president?
Chloe: George Hinkley.
Me and Papa: Rolling on the floor laughing.....
Me: trying to explain the difference between our prophet and our president......
But the chuckles do not end there. After school we went to one of our favorite places....So cupcake. (So delicious!!!!!) Today they had Obama cupcakes so that is what the kids wanted. At the dinner table the kids were telling Trent about the yummy Obama cupcakes and talking about watching the coverage at school.
Chloe: Guess who our new president is?
Trent: Who?
Chloe: Rock Obama!
Everyone at the table: Hysterically laughing
So apparently...... Obama rocks!!

Funny Coleman
In big letters it said:READ THIS!!!
The Moss Family Auction
Family Room (upstairs)
7:00-7:45 pm Jan. 11, 2009
Reminder: If you bring something for the auction you get $1.00 off admission.
Then he had made a little pocket with the tickets inside that said "Tickets here. You can buy your tickets at Coleman's bed $2.00 per adult kids $1.00) Trent's first reaction was so mom and I are supposed to pay you money to buy the toys we already bought you? To which Coleman replied, "Um... I guess." Apparently he hadn't thought of it that way. He was just looking to make a buck. Unfortunately we had to go to bed before the auction started....so I guess this post is to be continued. I will have to say this kid is creative!!

Christmas update
I know it doesn't look bad here but it was EVERYWHERE!!
My parents are serving an inner city mission and were given charge of a family to watch over and check on frequently. As part of this, they were in charge of this family's sub for santa. Jayden, Kayli, and I were able to help them deliver the presents a few days before Christmas. Man it made the girls grateful for what they have!!! This family had seven people living in a one bedroom ghetto apartment. We think our family has outgrown our tiny house but man I got home and felt like our house was huge! It was good to have a reminder of how much our Heavenly Father has given us. That evening we, along with a few cousins, went to a family home evening group in my parents mission ward. We shared our musical talents (even though we forgot to bring the song that Jayden really wanted to sing.) and it was once again humbling at how much our Heavenly Father has truely blessed us.
On the Tuesday before Christmas we were able to go to Trent's extended family's annual Christmas party. What a treat it was to have Aunt Sherry there as well as cousins and family we only see a few times a year. We had a great time hearing Jenna sing "Latte Boy". Chloe is still singing it today!!
Christmas eve we spent at the Moss house. (aka Trent's parents). The highlight of the evening for the kids was singing karaoke with grandpa's cool eqiupment.
Jayden being a dork at Grandma and Grandpa Moss' house.
This is one of Annabelle's favorite Christmas presents. She can even slide off on her own when she is done rocking.
Don't ask me why Chloe has such a scary look on her face. She wanted these Pixos so bad!
Chloe is really into posing as of late.....I wonder where she gets it from?
