blog woes

as you may already know, before coming back to blogger i was at typepad for 4 years.  my hubs is wanting to drop the other blog and stop payments.  my issue is that i have 4 years worth of stuff i don't want to lose.  not every single post, but a lot.  there are things that i don't want to forget, like the funny things my kids said to me, and the rare occasions where i posted an insightful post.  i thought about moving some of that stuff here, or even make some sort of book.  who knows.  i am open to suggestions though.
here are a couple of funny things my kids said back in 2006:
lesson to me in talking down to my little ones:  deacon(3) brought to me one of his little thomas the tank engine pieces and i said to him "oh, is that one of your new choo choos?"  and he just plainly looked at me and said, "mom. it's a freight car."  i guess he told me huh?

one morning while doing history lesson with the girls in the family room, the three little boys were quietly playing with their toys, probably half listening to us too.  i asked the question: "when george washington was a young boy, he dreamed of being an officer in the british royal navy.  what did his mom say about that?"  carter(18mo) then replies, "no, no, bad bad!"  we instantly all fell out into laughter as that was basically george's mom's reply!

a little keith humor:
he comes to me one day and says, "i need some medicine mom"  i say, "oh really? why?"  he replies, "cause i'm sick of hearing deacon sing that song!"

cam-"mom, should i wear a dress or a blanket to church tonight?"
just in case you were confused, this is how you know that it is bible character night at awana.
btw, she went as queen esther.


i also want to remember when i take photos like this:


i took this one of cam reading to the boys. well, she is really supposed to be reading to carter, but drew was listening in.








i am slowly going through and pulling things i want to keep, but i'm thinking, there's gotta be an easier way!!!
