6.2.10 Momo

Jakob loves my chicken dance elmo. He calls him Mo-mo, but he is pretty cute when he talks to Momo. I can't wait for him to start doing the dance!

6.1.10 Hawaiian Falls, Attempt #1




I thought with as much as Jakob loves the water, he would love the water park. He liked it for about 15 minutes, but they had this huge bucket that fills with water and every five minutes or so it dumps. Even though it never got him wet, it freaked him out until he couldn't do anything but cling to me and cry. So we tried the lazy river, thinking it would not scare him, but he screamed all the way through it. I was pretty frustrated as I had planned on spending most of our summer there to keep cool. We are going to try again with Daddy next week.

5.31.10 Jeff Learns to Grill

At the last minute we decided to have Jeff's parents and grandparents over for a memorial day barbecue. Jon taught Jeff how to grill and the boys played dominoes. Us girls sat in the living room and chatted. It was a pretty pleasant afternoon.

5.30.10 Birthday Barbecue

I was beginning to feel better today, so I went over to mom's house for a barbecue. She had kept Jakob the night before, and Juan and Jessica came over too. Even Jeff got to go. It was nice to have the whole family together, and Jakob of course was our entertainment!

5.29.10 Super Mario Bros

This is what I wanted for my birthday, and it did not dissapoiont me. It is so much like Mario 3 was, but this is on the Wii. I have had alot of fun playing it and managed to beat it in two weeks!

5.28.10 Last Day of School!

Oh my how I have been waiting for this day! It was a half day and all we did was have field day all day. I was in charge of the tattoo booth, and I must have put 200 tattoos on. Luckily I had a parent volunteer helping me, or I never could have gotten all the kids done. It was so hot though, and I was so sick, and I ended up leaving early to go to Care Now. I had a pretty ferocious upper respitory infection that kept me in bed the first two days of summer.
My picture for the day is of a third grader throwing a pie in his teachers face. He was held back last year and she promised him if he passed this year he could do this...it was pretty funny. The kids sang a song about her getting a pie in the eye, but mostly it got in her hair and on her clothes.

5.27.10 My Porceilan Friend


I know this is a wierd thing to take a picture of, but I am running out of ideas completely, and when I thought, "What have I been up to lately?" All I could think of was my morning sickness that has plagued me the last couple weeks. So I figured since I spend a fair amount of time looking at this, I might as well use it as my photo today!
