Here are a few Jordan stories. I know there are a lot more, I hope I can remember them all so I can write them down to read and laugh at later.

Our stove top is broken so I basically have to plan dinner at 8 am everyday because I have to make sure I get stuff in the crock pot in time, or have time to get to the store for other things. I never realized how much I rely on my silly stove top to cook dinner. Anyway, I forgot yesterday to get something prepared so when Benji got home I told him I was going to run to the store for a frozen pizza. Jordan said, "Not a frozen pizza! It will make me cold like it is." I tried to tell him we would warm it up in the oven, but he didn't believe me.

Lately when there is a strong smell in the air (smoke, skunk or baking cookies, for example) Jordan will ask if we can 'hear that smell'.

Now that it's warming up a little Benji has been going fishing more. Since it's only a five minute drive to the stream he fishes at he usually will go on his day off. Before Benji leaves Jordan will yell, "Don't fall in the river, Dad!"

Jordan likes to tell a story where I buy a helicopter and he buys a blimp and we fly together to go look at a waterfall. As he was telling the story one day he added, "and you will look over at me in the blimp and you will recotize (recognize) me!"

Jordan did his business on the potty the other day, and when he got down to flush he said, "look mommy, the poops are hugging!"

We went to Salt Lake last week and when we were about 15 minutes away from home Jordan let us know he had to pee. We told him to wait because we were almost home. About 5 minutes later he said he needed to go and started whining and grunting (it was getting serious), since we had just gotten off the freeway (and there wasn't a gas station or store in sight) Benji pulled over so Jordan could pee outside so we could avoid an accident. Jordan was SO mad about having to go in the bushes. He was bawling the whole time saying he didn't want to pee on the plants. I feel bad because I think it really traumatized him. As we were driving home he was still crying loudly about having to pee on the plants. At one point he yelled, "I got the dirt all wet!" When we got home and I was getting him dressed for bed he waved him finger in my face and said, "Don't you ever ever ever do that again!!"
