These are our stories.

One more morning note...
If you ever feel like you're not getting your money's worth - take a pre-teen or teenaged boy to an all-you-care to eat buffet. Seriously. Hotels with free breakfasts are worth every penny to a family with males this age...

You know, my brother says the same thing! (with boys now aged 21, 18, 16, and 11. It probably doesn't help that the 3 oldest are over 6 feet tall, and the 18 year old is over 6'6"!)
You'll have to remember some of those jokes to text into Monsters, Inc in WDW!
Daddy Doc (DD)- He's the man of my dreams. A brilliant guy, a techno geek, a Cub Master, Assistant Scout Master, WoodBadge Beaver, and a wonderful dad.
Perky Mommy - (PM) Mom to three boys. I have a BA in History and I'm a former teacher. That means that the things I love to do most are to tell and preserve the stories about my family - and to give them great stories to tell!
Mr. Genius (MG) - Our oldest son. He's 12. He's brilliant, but he's impulsive. He has a good heart, but as the oldest brother who thinks he knows it all (and almost does) he gets rather bossy at times.
Sweet but Sneaky (SBS)- Our middle son. He's 10. He is a sweet boy, but he's got a mischievous side. He'll sneak behind our backs, then look at us with Puss in Boots eyes when he's caught. Followed by a serious pout. He tries to stifle his emotions when he's truly upset, but if he's been wronged by Mr. Genius, he'll cry loudly. Or whine. Or both.
Captain Stubborn (CS) - The "baby". He's 7. He's fiercely independent. He wants to do it all himself. He's the first of our children to have stitches. Laughing Gas won't work on him because he's too stubborn. He thinks screaming will get him out of things he doesn't like. It never works. Ever. But he's precious and adorable and loves us - all of which he never hesitates to let us know.
