Sid's way of un-dusting the duster she just used in the house.

I have funny kids

Okay, first a few of Sid's journal entries from school - and at the bottom, Jack tries to feed Lucky a CapriSun drink.

So my Jack is so funny. WHENEVER I say to him "Jack, do you need a new diaper?" he says "No momma, LALA!" which means, no mom, not me, then he points to Alyssa (Lala) and tries to convince me she has a dirty diaper - uh, hello Jack, she's FIVE!

Today

Just a few photos from today - First is Alyssa riding her old tricycle with "baby Moses" on the back. She made a moses basket today and then took him out and took him for a spin in the backyard. Also happening in the backyard, using the Burro for an outdoor dryer for our guest comforter! Looks pretty ghetto, but he's super useful SOMETIMES. The pic of our backyard, I just had to take, because sometimes this place cracks me up at how messy it gets. I feel bad for our gardeners, who feel they have to straighten out the kids' toys sometimes because they're all strewn about the lawn. And the last photo - this is ONLY online because I feel maybe I can make SOMEONE ELSE feel better about their mess if they happen to have one. This is the result of picking up everything off the floor to mop, then not putting it all away, and then starting cookies, and then starting 100 other things without finishing the first. Does anyone else share this problem with me? So, my floors are clean, but anything above that needs a few hours of work! Bobby's out of town this weekend working a case, so I guess I have the time, I just don't have any help with the crazy crowd of kids around me all the time! I have to go tackle this RIGHT NOW! Seeing a photo of it is very convicting.

Just random stuff and pics

My brother in law is one of the funniest people I know. This is what I caught after I promised him (i know, that's snake-like of me!) I was not taking video, just photos. He was just being WAY too funny, all competitive with his fianceeeeee (seriously, how many Es are necessary for a girl who is engaged?) and trying to beat her score and Bobby's score at the Wii Fit hula hooping. He has forever cracked me up. And all the giggling, well that's Alyssa, Ashly and me.

Notice Sid's spelling for Australia, Paris and America. So cute. She tries! That's all I can ask for!
