Outside Uncle Mike's house in FL
Amazingly enough, it is now December...little Micah should arrive on the 15th and the chaos of three shall be a distant memory...

Quote of the Day
After all those earthquakes kept hitting the same region, we had a discussion about what causes an earthquake. The result...
Jonah: MAN, maybe they should just remove those plates already!
Mom: You know, you could write more than one sentence on your thank-you notes.
Jonah: Would that make me a saint?
Mom: WELL, it WOULD be something a saint would do....
(Needless to say, his notes all consists of "thank you for the (blank). Love Jonah. Sainthood is not his goal, apparently.)
Noah: Who has a hiccup today?
Mom: A hiccup?
Noah: Yeah, me, you, Selah...?
Mom: A CHECK- UP?
Noah: YES!
Jonah: I would like "easy eggs" for breakfast! (As in over-easy.)
During prayer:
Noah: I am thankful for a house, heat, food, rollerCOASTER- WOO WOO WOO (you know the song.), Selah....
During prayer:
Noah: I'm thankful that I learned how to jump off my bed.
(I'm thinking we may need to move closer to a hospital.)
(I was looking up the train we are taking the boys to ride on for Noah's birthday.)
Noah: Wait! Let me see what kind of train it is! WHAT? It's a STEAM ENGINE? Give me a break! I like fast trains!
We went for a drive down Jeffrson through Grosse Point Shores to ogle at the mansions.
Dad: There's the Ford's House that Mom and I went to see last year. The one with the life-size playhouse.
Jonah: the one with the tunnel in the basement?
Dad: Yes.
Jonah: Isn't that the one where the kids never got to see their mom and they had a babysitter all of the time?
Mom: Well, not all of the time, but most of the time, yes. Would you like if you could live in that big house?
Jonah: Well, no, I LIKE being with you and Dad!!
(Sometimes giving up your life for your kids DOES pay off!)
A little while later, Bryan was pointing out the Ford's yacht to the kids- HUGE, let me tell you! Must be nice to have $15 million to spend on a boat...but then I guess the trade off is not raising your own kids- No thanks! Noah was watching the boats on the lake, looking for more big ones.
Noah: Can we go see the Titanic?
Mom: The TITANIC?
Noah: Yeah, the REALLY, BIG boat called the Titanic!
Mom: No, I don't think we will ever go see the Titanic. It's at the bottom of the ocean.
Noah: IT IS?
Mom: Yes, it sank when it hit an iceberg, remember?
Noah: But it's STILL down there?
Noah: Why do I have to sit at the table?
Mom: Because it's time for dinner.
Noah: We're having DINNER? Is it my BIRTHDAY?
(As if we don't have dinner daily...Please don't call CPS, I swear my kids get three meals and two snacks every day!)
Noah: Can you play find my Joe?
Dad: Your Joe? What's your Joe?
Noah: The SONG! Can we hear find my Joe!?!
Dad: Cotton-eye Joe?
Noah: YES! Can you play find my Joe!
(Noah has been building CT scan machines out of pillows daily, and he uses Jonah's pillows that I made him when he was younger which often turns into a fight, of course.)
Mom: Noah, do you know what I was thinking we could do since it is almost your birthday?
Noah: Get a REAL CT scan machine?
Mom: Ummm...well...no...
Noah: Get a PRETEND CT scan machine?
Mom: Well...I was thinking about going to the fabric store and letting you pick out some material so I could make you some pillows of your own.
Noah: YEAH! Let's go! (He ran right to the closet for his shoes. And when I said not today, he hounded me 5 times a day for 2 days until we went!)
Text message conversation with my cousin...
Me: Hey, did you let the guard shack know we were coming?
Beth: LOL, Guard shack?
(Bryan and I have a conversation, trying to figure out what to call it... gate guard? ... we are at a loss.)
Me: Well, what do you call it?
Beth: Guard house.
(Ahhh, okay, I could see where that could be considered funny, and maybe a little demeaning. I blame it on too many years with the military.)
Noah: Secrets kill you! (Well, I guess they COULD...)
After the CT scan...
Mom: Noah, was the CT scan pretty cool?
Noah: Not neccessarily.
Mom, after finally catching her breath from laughing: Not neccessarily?
Noah: No, it was pretty scary. A little bit fun, but mostly scary.
Mom: So you don't want to do it again?
Noah: Definitely not!
A few minutes later, while waiting for the doctor...
Noah: Well, maybe in a few days I would want to do it again. It was kind of fun. I can't wait to tell Jonah about it! Has Jonah ever had a CT scan? No? I'll tell him not to be scared. They only take a picture of your brain, it won't hurt!
Jonah: Where's that mountain we always get sick driving on?
Mom: Coming up.
Jonah: Hey Noah, in just a minute we are going to have to keep our eyes closed for a little bit so we don't get sick. You don't want to throw up do you?
Noah: I don't throw up in the car. But if I did... I'd throw up on YOU!
(Don't worry, he got in trouble for that, and I'll refrain from commenting on where he probably got that. But it does paint the picture of how the boys are growing up and turning into "normal" brothers, eh?)
Noah: Mom! I think we need to have 6 babies!!!!! (Shudder, thankfully that only seems to happen to those who use artificial means to have children, and we would never. I think we are safe for now...)
Noah: How come everytime I have to go pee, you have to go pee? Oh, yeah, I forgot! Because you are PREGNANT!
Noah: Hey MOM! I have a question for you! ... What do you do with a drunken sailor?.... Mom, the answer is "put him in a longboat until he's sober!"
(If Noah EVER says he has a question for you, 95% of the time, it is that one. He thinks it is hilarious.)
After going through the Big Walker and East River tunnels in VA...
Noah: Are we going through another tunnel?
Dad: No, those were the only tunnels.
2 minutes later...
Noah: Are we going through another tunnel, yet?
Dad: NO. There are no more big tunnels!
Noah: What about little tunnels?
Dad: NO. THERE ARE NO MORE TUNNELS!
10 minutes later...
Noah: Hey Dad! Do we have to go through another tunnel?
(I'll refrain from posting Dad's answer...)
The next day...
Noah: Are we almost to another tunnel?
Dad and Jonah: THERE ARE NO MORE TUNNELS!!!
Noah: Are we in a rainforest?
Dad: No, just a regular forest.
Noah: But there are lots of trees!
Dad: That's what makes it a forest!
Noah:But I don't WANT to follow the rules!
Mom: Then sit down in the corner.
Noah: But in the corner you disappear!
Noah: Ummm, Excuse me, Mommy...your hair looks like EARS! ( Time for a haircut!)
Noah: Can we go to the neighbor's for lunch?
Mom: What neighbor's?
Noah: The ones that live above us.
Mom: No.
Noah: Why not?
Dad: Because that is not our house, and you don't just invite yourself over for lunch! We don't even know those neighbors!
(Noah is quiet for a couple of minutes. Then...)
Noah: But Uncle Mike said we can just come on into his house when we get there!
(Ahhhh..... that's where that came from.)
Email from Bryan: How is it possible that I got to work this morning before I even work up?
My response: OOPS! It appears that your alarm clock is 30 minutes fast. Forgot to mention that the power went out yesterday... :) (My alarm clock has a battery back-up. His doesn't. But it is an atomic clock, so it is SUPPOSED to adjust itself. It never seems to do that.)
Noah, at dinner: Jonah, count to one.
Jonah: ONE.
Noah: NO. Like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ONE!
(Bryan and I share confused looks.)
Jonah: That's not how you count to one!
Noah: Oh! Like 5, 4, 3, 2, ONE!!!
Jonah: Okay, 5, 4, 3, 2, ONE!!
Noah: BLAST OFF!!!
(He then begins flying his space shuttle shaped fork around. Never even saw that one coming!)
Jonah: I thought that we were making a pumpkin pie!
Mom: We were, but I cannot find the can opener.
Jonah: Dad is really strong. He can open the can for us!
Mom: Do you guys want Macaroni & Chesse for lunch?
Jonah: Is it out of a box?
Mom: Yes.
Jonah: Yes, please. (Why waste the effort on homemade when my kids prefer the blue box?)
Noah: I wish you could go to work so Dad could stay home and make Mac & Cheese for us! (What's wrong with the way I make it??? Or is it just that Dad is more fun? Sigh. No appreciation for the fact I have given up my life for them!)
We were at soccer practice, and Noah said he had to pee. I told him to wait for just a minute, as we were getting ready to leave. So he goes off to play with another kid, and they are throwing "flowers" (aka dandelions) into the ditch. Well I look over to check on him, and see his BOTTOM! Yep, he decided to just pee where he was, never mind he was playing with a little girl! AND he pulls his pants all the way down, so even those behind him can see what he is doing. Of course, this was as the game next to where we were practicing finished and everyone was leaving. SO, needless to say, a whole lot of people saw this. So I then asked him where he is supposed to pee.
Noah: In the toilet.
Mom: Is that a toilet?
Noah: Welllllll......, it has water in it! So, yeah!
Bryan: THAT'S IT! It is too hard to cook dinner with 3 kids. We will just have to eat out until they are all at least 12.
(I admit to feeling a bit vindicated since I was helping him make dinner that night and he was still overwhelmed. I am all about eating out until they are 12- I shall start the job hunting today!)
Noah: Are we going to buy something that is not on SALE? Because Daddy has LOTS of money, so I think we can!
Noah: I think Jonah and me want a different new home.
(POOR KID! We haven't even moved yet, and he has only seen the "new house" once. Hopefully this will be a short-lived new home.)
Noah: I don't like this rice.
Bryan: You didn't even try it!
Noah: What kind of rice is it?
Bryan: Teriyaki rice. It's good, You will like it.
Noah: Teri-YUCKY rice? EWWW, I won't like that!
I was told by Bryan to go through my clothes, we weren't taking them all. He thought that I was keeping too many, and told me:
"Just because you like something and it fits doesn't mean you have to keep it."
(WHAT? YES IT DOES!)
Mom: I have a doctor's appointment and Dad is coming home to watch you.
Jonah: Just me? Sweet!
Mom: NO. You AND your brother and sister.
Jonah: WHAT? Why can't Noah and Selah go with you and Dad and I can stay home. (SIGH)
Mom: Seriously? If I was going to take anybody, it would be you. Do you want to come?
Jonah: Seriously? NO.
(I mean, SERIOUSLY!)
Noah: I don't want to eat and get bigger. I want to not eat and get littler. And then we can move back into the old house.
Jonah: I have a piece of glass in my hand. From the basement. From when you threw the plate down there and it broke, Noah.
Noah: I am sorry that I threw a plate from the top of the stairs and it broke and Mom didn't clean up all the glass and you got a piece in your hand, Jonah.
(Nice. I am proud of him for apologizing for something that he already apologized for, without even being prompted. But did you see how he turned that around on me? Hello? He's 3!)
Noah: I don't want to brush my teeth. I WANT them to all fall out. Then the tooth fairy will come.
During prayer,
Dad: Are you thankful for your bike, Noah?
Noah: No.
Dad: No?
Noah:It's not a bike, it's a tricycle.
Dad: Oh, so we can give it to someone else who would be thankful for it.
Noah: Yes.
Dad: Okay.
Noah: And I can get a BIKE! Actually, no. I don't want a BIKE.
Dad: You don't?
Noah: No. I want a MOTORCYCLE so I can drive on the road!
Noah: Um, excuse me, Mom?
Mom: Yes?
Noah:Um, Selah's toy broke. A BIG, HUGE ANGEL came and broke it.
Mom:(desperately trying not to laugh): and was this angel's name, NOAH?
Noah: NO! His name was FOAH! And he broke the window and got into our house and brok Selah's toy.
Mom: I didn't know that ANGEL's broke windows and broke toys, I thought that they helped people out.
Noah: Yeah, he's a FIREFIGHTER ANGEL.
(As if this explains it all!)
2 minutes later...
Noah: Actually, it wasn't an ANGEL that broke Selah's toy- it was the JAPANESE!
(I must admit, everything is the JAPANESE these days. He watched one of Jonah's fighter pilot movies, which happened to be about WWII and talked about the Japanese bombing Pearl Harbor. We have been struggling to get him to understand that the Japanese are not bad people and we do not hate them...it's been slow going.)
Jonah: We're having BURNT bread for dinner?
Mom: It's not BURNT, it's just browned!
(couple of minutes later...)
Noah: Dad, can you please blow on my bread?
Dad blows.
Noah: HUH? It's still BURNT!
Jonah: Noah! I got you a new garbage truck! Come see.
Noah: Thank you, Jonah! Does it look like my old one?
Jonah: April Fool's!
Noah: Hey, Jonah! I got you some new Legos..... April First!
Jonah: MAN, maybe they should just remove those plates already!
Mom: You know, you could write more than one sentence on your thank-you notes.
Jonah: Would that make me a saint?
Mom: WELL, it WOULD be something a saint would do....
(Needless to say, his notes all consists of "thank you for the (blank). Love Jonah. Sainthood is not his goal, apparently.)
Noah: Who has a hiccup today?

Quotes from "The Big Trip"
Noah: I want the guy who ate Luke Skywalker.
Jonah: No one ATE Luke.
Mom: The snow man guy?
Noah: YEAH!
Jonah: (Sigh.) He's called a Wamba- and I didn't bring him.
Noah: It smells like OCTOPUS!
(As if he's ever smelled an octopus!)
Noah: Excuse me, Mom? Can you please scratch me?
Mom: It's too hard to scratch you in the car. I'll scratch you when we stop.
Bryan: Where did we get this kid?
(A couple of minutes later...)
Bryan: Ohhh...Can you scratch my arm?
Jonah: Are we in Georgia, yet?
Mom: No. We will tell you when we get to Georgia.
Jonah: But I remember this FOREST!
Mom: Well, there are a lot of forests in Georgia...and in Tennesee, apparently!
While we were driving through one of the civil war battlefields in the area...
Noah: Where did the soldiers put their video games?
(Mind you, my kids get VERY little TV/video game time, so this was just weird!)
After being told to stop asking "are we there, yet?", we heard "WHEN are we going to be there?"
Daddy told Noah to stop asking questions unless he had a REAL question.
Noah: I have a REAL question.
Bryan: (Sigh.) WHAT?
Noah: Uhhh, how do cars drive without wheels?
(I have to admit, it was a REAL question. REAL stupid? Yes. But real nonetheless!)
Noah: Can I have some hand sanitizer?
Mom: No, you haven't touched anything. You're good.
Noah: NOW I touched something (rubbing the bottom of his shoe.) NOW can I have some?
Jonah: No one ATE Luke.
Mom: The snow man guy?
Noah: YEAH!
Jonah: (Sigh.) He's called a Wamba- and I didn't bring him.
Noah: It smells like OCTOPUS!
(As if he's ever smelled an octopus!)
Noah: Excuse me, Mom? Can you please scratch me?

(Mind you, my kids get VERY little TV/video game time, so this was just weird!)
After being told to stop asking "are we there, yet?", we heard "WHEN are we going to be there?"
Daddy told Noah to stop asking questions unless he had a REAL question.
Noah: I have a REAL question.
Bryan: (Sigh.) WHAT?
Noah: Uhhh, how do cars drive without wheels?
(I have to admit, it was a REAL question. REAL stupid? Yes. But real nonetheless!)
Noah: Can I have some hand sanitizer?
Mom: No, you haven't touched anything. You're good.
Noah: NOW I touched something (rubbing the bottom of his shoe.) NOW can I have some?

About Us
- The Wilhelms
- A family of five, born in 5 different states! Jonah is 8 and is in the second grade. He is homeschooled- which he loves...well, he DID. This year's been a little rough so far. Noah is 4 and finds things to keep himself and Mommy busy! He is anxious to be old enough to do SOMETHING. Selah turned 1 in September and the whole world revolves around her...and her quest for more shoes! Can't forget Micah, who should be arriving mid-December. What a Christmas it'll be here!

I am so amazed at hearing the hearbeat. Way to techno for me. Please let me or Jaime know how to do this. Weird thing is....I can "almost" remember how it feels. A very soothing and comforting sound. Best to you and Big!
