Wow...

Well, never thought I'd see the day that I would start a blog. But it's all for the sake of the children, and the grandparents, not merely my need for self-expression. So here it goes- a record of the growing and changing and precious-ness of the Johnson children, and the fun we have on our journey together!

funny...

Our children are so sun!! Last night Grandma came for dinner and after we watered our garden - or rather, our bed of dirt with seeds...we came inside and played Hide and Seek. Oh my goodness. it was so so so hilarious. Wyatt loved the part where we would run to the bench and count "Ready or not, here We come!" and then walk thru the halls with both his arms up, like "Where are they?" Savvy was pretty good at hiding, but her favorite part was popping out at whoever was looking for her. It was great fun :) Looking forward to when they get a little older and we can play in the dark :) Wyatt is now saying more words! He says "All Done!" (sounds like aaaaah dawww) and Daddy continues to be his favorite word. :) Savanna is learning to write her letters! She told me she wanted to do letters the other day, so I helped her trace the entire alphabet and then her numbers 1-10. She is a quick learner and loves it. YAY! :)

Wyatt-isms

"Bop!" --->Stop "Miss you" ---> He loves to tell us he misses u - even if he has been with you all day :) it is super precious and usually comes w/ a big hug :)The newest thing is "Miss you all night Momma! (or Daddy)" It is so...precious :) Love you --and tries to do the I love you hand sign - but ends up w/ peace fingers :) Can count to ten easily and work his way to 20. WOW. I'm super impressed with him!!! :) He is talking in more and more complete sentences. I am amazed at how he puts thoughts together and shares them...he loves to play with Savanna's felt boards - they have various themes and lots of different fun parts (fish, plants, mountains, etc) and he makes great little pictures, then says, "Done Momma! Nother one!"

Pioneer Woman's Comfort Meatballs...and the most amazing Garlic Mashed potatoes...myy rec

 YUM. That is all I have to say about these meatballs. I generally like meatballs, and these are SIMPLE, and have a step I've never heard of before....you actually flour and fry them before baking them. I know, seems ridiculous, I mean, who fries meatballs??? PW :) She got the recipe from a friend when she had just given birth to their 3rd child and was nursing...maybe that's why I like them so much!! Ha ha ...  Simple ingredients. Oatmeal, salt, pepper, milk, onion. And my beautiful helper. In this picture, she was making "soup" from food coloring and water...she was so so so excited for Daddy to wake up so that he could eat his soup too...we all had a bowl at lunch :) Someday she will be an amazing cook, I'm telling you! HOORAY! So then you chill them...to help them set up, I think.  Flour them, and fry them...apparently I didn't take a picture of that step. Use your imagination. Its pretty exciting. The sauce - so YUMMY. Probably what ensure they are...
