We are Heroes

In our house we now have to refer to Evan as "Incredible Hulk." And he's not the only one with nicknames around here, Bill is "Iron man" and I am "Captain America." If I say "what Evan?" I am corrected with "you mean Incredible Hulk." It is very cute and pretty fun. He'll randomly tell me there's a bad guy behind me that I will have to then throw a sword at. How did this start? Well this crazy kid loves to play games on disney.com and has found a game called the Avengers that uses all the superheroes and that is when we magically turned into them.. His imagination is amazing. I love it!

Thank you Dora

Evan is constantly surprising me with the new things that he has learned. He is always asking questions and wants to know how EVERYTHING works... which is sometimes annoying but also really cool because he finds these things so interesting that he wants to know how they work. He uses big words (although I cannot think of an example), and uses them correctly. And now he is using Spanish words!

Evan burst in our room one morning when he woke up and was very excited to tell Bill and I, "my pee is amarillo!!" Bill looks at me and asks what in the world Evan is talking about. He was saying that his pee is yellow- in spanish! So thank you Dora for now teaching my son to use spanish to describe his pee..

Did you know...?

Last night Evan was throwing a fit because he didn't want to go to bed; so when he went to his room he slammed the door. He does this often and then remembers that his door sticks so if he slams it he can't open it! So he's in his room crying and can't get out and instead of running to the rescue we just let him cry for a bit because he was being pretty ridiculous. Then all of a sudden he says "guys... guys..." and keeps saying it over and over, sometimes really loud, sometimes nice and quiet. Bill goes upstairs and Evan says "Dad, did you know that Buzz says 'Hola amigos I'm Buzz Lightyear." Really Evan?! All that fuss to tell us what Buzz says??

My Latest Adventure!

This September I will be in my friend Kristina's wedding. One of the activities that she did with all the bridesmaids was to have a Mary Kay party. It was a lot of fun and because we all had color done Alden will come the day of the wedding and do all of our make-up. Since I am always looking for new ways to make money, I decided to check out Mary Kay.

After going to my first unit meeting, I see that it is certainly possible to make money if you "work your business" the way it's meant to be done. Bill calls me a sucker, but hopefully I can prove him wrong!

So for now, I'm trying to learn what I can and find people interested in having a party. I'm working on something special for whoever hosts my first party. If you are interested or need more info check out my website www.marykay.com/rmcpherson1. And for all my friends that do NOT live in New York, you can order through the website and it can be shipped directly to your house!
