WARNING

I am so far behind. I have so many stories and pictures. WARNING!!!! I bought a external harddrive to keep my pictures on and to use only when I need them. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE another copy somewhere. I didnt use it much but only after 2 years it crashed.....yes crashed and I lost all of my picture and if I want to pay $1500 I can have them extracted. GOOD NEWS, I did have majority of them on a disk so I didnt lose too many. In the age of technology make sure you have back up. I dont keep the real pictures becasue I dont use all of them. I dont even remember when I developed any pictures!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Hopgrassers!!

Today Emily and KJ were outside playing with grandma and she noticed a bug hopping in the grass. Grandma told her it was a grasshopper. So after nap when I picked them up she ran to tell me about the hopgrasser....It was too cute, a hopgrasser....then KJ started hopping and it was funny....it took a minute but I knew it was a grasshopper.

RIDDLE GAME!!!

Christian had a good idea about writing down all the things that KJ says that is quite funny and cute and I decided to make it into a game. For those who know and spend time with us this should be easy and for those who dont lets see how much fun you have....

So I am going to write how it sounds, dont concentrate on spelling, just say it how it looks. Then down below I will give you the answers....

Let the fun begin............Think of this, when he speaks most of the time he sounds like he has a boston accent, how and why, noone knows, but its cute!

1. Chicka woo-----Chicken Wittle

2. way her me

3. grobbles

4. hey E rose wagger

5.make it wok

6. goo me...............cooze me

7. fimming

8. foria

9. wu (short u) eb er

10. downdairs

Ok, so how did you do? How many do you think that you know?

Well, take a look below to see how many you got right. The correct answers are in red and his sayings are in blue.

1. We used to watch this movie Chicken Little and he used to say chicka woo and then later chicken wittle.

2. When someone leaves he says this...........wait for me! It is so funny way her me, way her me!!

3. We were in the pool and he was swimming and kinda got his face wet and then said "Mom I need my grobbles" of course we knew he meant goggles

4. Who lives with grandma? none other than Haley Rose Wagner but he says hey E rose wagger

5. A song we hear alot, Life's what you make it so lets make it rock, make it rock, make it rock

and he sings make it wok, make it wok

6. If someone burps or is in his way he used to say goo me or now it is cooze me which simply means excuse me

7. On a hot day he likes to go fimming after nap in the pool.....ding ding ding...swimming

8. We are trying to teach him where he lives here in California but that is too long for him and he is too lazy so he just say foria

9. this one is a little difficult, when he is trying to be funny he rolls his eyes and says wu eb er

which really means whatever

10. Last but not least.............when he wakes up the first thing he says is he wants to go downdairs which is downstairs............this one should have been easy.

HAMS!!!!!

They are such hams!!! They say take a picture and then they want to see it and then they crack up laughing! Heres why!!!!!
Emily was grumpy and I took the picture and she didnt want to see it. It was funny!

Long Beach Aquarium

At the aquarium, Emiy and Christian were much more adventurous and my litte chicken, KJ wouldnt really walk anywhere for a while and he definetly wouldnt touch anything.


















This is a giant sting ray in the touch tank. Christian touched this one. Look how huge he is.


















This is the only fish KJ would touch. Push the button and water squirts out of his mouth.


















See any sea life here. Yes look carefully, it is called a sea dragon, kinda looks like a sea horse and it also looks like the plants around it. Even the same color. Pretty cool, I had never seen one before.


















Here is the tank all the kids loved. Look closely. Its NEMO! Look even closer and it is his friend DORY. The clownfish and tang fish fish from Finding Nemo, which we have seen a million times. Wondering about the black and white one. Well that is called a false clownfish????


















This fun touch tank Emily and Christian got to touch the starfish and sea urchins. KJ wouldnt go near it.


















This was so cute. They got a kick out of this seal. They stood in the window and this seal came over and just hung out, upside down. He was too cute and funny. They laughed at him and Emily wanted to know his name.


















Christian tried and tried to touch that huge stingray. Finally he did.

















Oops same pic, oh well.


















They looked and looked at all those fish.

My DRAMA Queen

Oh my, Emily, well yesterday we went for our usual walk along the bike path. They ride their bicycles and we just stroll for awhile. We took a short cut home through a rocky trail.
Emily started running and she fell and scratched her knees. One more worse than the other.

She hasnt stopped crying about it from yesterday. She said it doesnt hurt and I gave her some Motrin just in case. She told me she needs to sit on the couch. She wont extend her leg nor will she walk on it.

We took Christian to play and KJ wanted to play at McDonalds and Emily said no KJ I will get sick if I go to McDonalds. So then KJ said let play out front and Emiy said......ummm I will think about that KJ. It was funny becasue life is revolving around her today.

She is acting like her leg is broke. She cries everytime she looks at the bandaids. She doesnt like to see a boo boo.

"Be careful I have a boo boo on my knee. Just like grandma." She tells me last night before bed.
Oh Brother!
