Moments in Time with the Ahlstroms: MARCH MADNESS

MARCH MADNESS

Maybe if I was into basketball, this entry would be about something else. However, this is March Madness Ahlstrom Style. Carter has become the family computer nerd. He wakes up at 6:30 EVERY morning, blankie around his neck-Superman style and goes straight to the laptop to play PBS computer games. He's not even 3 years old yet!

Then there was our early beginning to Spring Break with a traditional Spring snowstorm. Notice my snowbunnies striking a pose. Not so bad...as a result, I didn't have to go to work either.

My sister made the big move from California...Mini Cooper and all! I'm so happy she's finally here!!!

If I don't go, I won't need glasses right? WRONG! New glasses after 14 years of not seeing the eye doctor! The benefits of aging!

Whittling chip badge for our new "Bear."

Carter "POT" ty training in front of the tv. He loved the cushy seat to watch tv, but never actually did "the deed" after sitting there for a couple of hours.

Ethan, the abominable snowboy in the "Snow Cave."

Good Times, we'll see what April has in store for us!

Deep Thoughts of a Six Year Old

"So who is the first person the baby sees when she comes out of you?"

"When we ate food in the pre-mortal life, our food would fall out of our bodies just after we ate it."

"When we were spirits in heaven and we gave High 5's, Our hands just went right through each other"

"Mom, If I don't get married by the time I'm old, I will just go on a Mission."

"From now on, I'm going to be a 'Thumb's up' guy." What does that mean Ethan? "Than I'm not gonna wet my pants anymore. "

Second Day of Kindergarten:
Teacher: "...and this is the class kitchen"
Ethan: "But this is fake!" "When are we going to the real kitchen?"

"Mom, Can we buy a dog that isn't certain?" What are you talking about Ethan? "You said that you are allergic to certain dogs, so I want to get one that isn't certain."

"Mom, Are you gonna color your hair soon? I'm tired of looking at that dark brown hair. I want it to be lighter...like red."

"I don't like Sundays!" "Why can't we stay home from church like everyone else?" Who is everyone else? "All the people that ride their bikes and play golf !"

" Mom, do we get closer to dying the older we get?" "Yea. I guess so." "So grandma and grandpa are closer to dying than me and Carter?" "Yea. I guess you can say that."

"What was the first bathroom ever???" "I don't know, Ethan? I give up." "Grass and trees!"

"We need to get BAM Toilet Unclogger...it unclogs toilets and drains and cleans stains!!"

"If spiders weren't invented...would flies rule the whole earth?

"I wish I could make 3 copies of myself in a clone machine so if a mean guy tried to take me away, he wouldn't know which Ethan to take."

"If I get bit by a spider...will I be able to climb walls and ceilings?

"Where can we buy 5 teleporters? I bet we can go to a teleporter store" Why do you want 5 teleporters, Ethan? "So we can go to Hawaii."

"I didn't wet my pants...just my underwear."
"
"Hey mom I just found Saturn in my cereal bowl! See the planet..and there's the ring."

"Mom, Did you know that SPACE PACK storage bags are guaranteed to lock out dirt, bugs and moisture. You can store seasonal items and they are made of nylon." "So do you want them or not?"
