Funny Conversations.....

We have had several funny conversations with Isaac since Malachi was born. I've been writing them down but thought I should post them here. You should get a few laughs out of these...I know we did!!

1) On the way home from the hospital, Malachi was crying in his car seat. And Isaac leaned over and looked at him and said "Malachi! That's enough!". This came from times when Isaac was crying for no reason and we told him "That's enough!".

2) During another one of Malachi's first car rides, Isaac yelled "Mommy, Malachi's doing something!" We didn't know what was wrong so we pulled the car over to see. Malachi had just spit up a little but Isaac thought it was something bad wrong!!

3) After bringing Malachi home, we would sit and talk to him -- things like "I love you" or "What are you doing?". Or I would talk to Isaac and say things like "I love you" or "What are you doing?". After we would say things to either one of them, Isaac would then ask "Me? or Malachi?". If we told him we were talking to him he would then ask "Me? the talking one?". We don't know where he came up with "the talking one" but it was SOOOO funny!

4) Another thing Isaac has had a hard time grasping is that babies sleep ALOT! He always says "Malachi needs to wake up...it's morning time...it's not dark outside.... he needs to wake up!".

5) This one doesn't have anything to do with Malachi but I thought it was funny. We just bought a new vehicle. While we were looking, we had driven through one of the car dealerships. A few days later, we were driving on the street that goes in front of the car dealerships. Isaac said "Mommy? you remember we went and looked at those cars?" I said, "yes". Isaac -- "But you don't need a new car...you already have a car. Daddy doesn't need a new car....he already has a car. I don't have a car....I NEED a new car!" I just about died laughing at that. So, we bought our new car....Jason traded his WRX in and was VERY sad about that! So, Isaac told me after that "I will buy daddy a new blue car and then he will be happy!" Too funny!

I could write pages and pages of the silly conversations we have with our 3 year old. It never ends. Even when we are having a bad day we can still laugh cuz he will say something like these things I have shared with you!

Better late than never!!

I have not updated this blog in awhile. I guess I've been a little busy with the new baby....oh, I just realized....I never posted that we had the baby! So, yes, we had our new son, Malachi Jay, on September 2, 2009. He was 7lbs. 12oz. and 20 1/2 inches long. He is doing great. He is a good sleeper (so far). We hope and pray he stays this way. Isaac loves his little brother. He likes to help with everything....which can be good and bad!! When Malachi is sleeping, Isaac likes to lay next to him and talk to him. It is so cute! And then when we talk to one of them, Isaac always asks "Me or Malachi?". Then if we say "you" he says "me, the 'talking' one?". It is so funny!! It has been fun having two kids...and so far easier than people had me thinking it would be.

Air Force Cake

I decorated this cake for my friend's reenlistment to the U.S. Air Force. It was a pretty easy cake to decorate so I was glad for that!

Baby's name

After much deliberation I think we have finally agreed on the name for the baby. We have been set with Malachi as the first name since we found out we were having a boy but just could not agree on a middle name. We wanted something that was a family name -- Isaac has two family names so we figured this child needs at least one family name!! So, we talked and we talked and we talked some more but just could not agree on anything -- Malachi David, Malachi Henry, Malachi Jason, Malachi Lynn, Malachi Michael, and the list goes on. But the other day my suggested that we combine our two names and make a name for him but I thought that was kinda dumb at first -- what would it be?? Jarah?? Sason?? I thought that it was a dumb idea but the more I thought about it I came up with Jay. "J" for Jason and "ay" for my middle name Kay. So, I think it is official -- MALACHI JAY FRAZIER!!! I'm so glad the discussing is done!!!

We posted this on facebook just to see what ideas others had -- it is VERY funny reading everyone's ideas!!

It's a Boy!!

We found out today that we will be having another boy!!! Isaac keeps saying he doesn't want a brother, he wants a girl. I'm sure after awhile he will be fine with it -- it is just funny right now.

"Beautiful" Dandelions

My mom showed Isaac a week or so ago to pick the Dandelions and to give them to mommy. It was so sweet -- now all he wants to do is go outside and pick Dandelions. We get our yard treated, so needless to say we don't have too many but on the day of these pictures I think he must have found every single one in our yard!! :-) And he came inside and told me "I picked one for each of my friends!". So, we had to take them to church that night to give to "each of his friends". Then when we got to church we saw Miranda (she is 9 years old) and I asked him if he was going to give one to her and he said "No, only to my little friends!". It was SOOOO funny!
