Just had to post this...RIP Michael

Lisa Marie Presley's Thoughts on Michael's passing

Been a long time..
I've been a facebook junkie and updating my status there instead of updating this site.
So for my daily happenings you can checkup on me there.

We have a new addition to our family since the end of April. We brought home or Jazzi girl from Florida. Having a dog back in the house has been a change for us all. We've discovered Puppy daycare, which she goes 2 days a week. I can tell that it gets the puppy spaz out of her, since when she doesn't go she has puppy spaz @ home and thinks the boys are puppies and wants to play with them like they are also dogs. The boys don't appreciate that too much since her nails and teeth are sharp.

I've discovered that she's a great jumper and can launch her self from sitting position about 2 feet. She's pulled a lot of Jon's artwork off the wall and torn it up.

The boys are growing and developing.
Jacob is working on being a Potty Trainer and Jon is working on his listening skills and follow through.

We've been memorizing a poem this week for Jon's Kindergarten assignment.
So far Jon, Jacob, me and Mom have all memorized it.

I spent a couple hours online trying to find a poem that was appropriate and short enought to memorize.

Caterpillar by Christina Rossetti
Brown and Furry
Caterpillar in a Hurry
Take your walk
To the shady leaf or stalk
Or What Not
Which may be the chosen spot
No toad spy you
Hovering bird of prey pass by you
Spin & Die
To Live again a butterfly

The only thing is when Jon starts to recite it I can tell he's thinking about the caterpillar in his head and then he can't recite the poem. There are long pauses when he's watching the caterpillar in his head...

Jacob can finish each line.

The good thing is, I thought I was incapable of memorizing anything else, since my brain's been full for awhile. But I memorized this poem so I can teach Jonny.

Happy Easter!

So one of my "daily" blog reads is heather champ
My "Daily reads" are not really daily anymore, since I don't really have time. But back in the day, I read her daily posts, as well as the others listed in the right sidebar here.

Heather did this project of taking polaroid pictures everyday for a year.

Weekend update
We had a very full and fun weekend. and now I'm exhausted, but unfortunately we work on Martin Luther King day.
It was pretty difficult to get my butt into the office today, since there was no school and Jacob was yelling at me, "Don't go to work!"

We had a Girl's night on Friday, saw BrideWars and Happy hour at Palomino. It was fun to get out and just chit chat...When I returned home, the boys were already in bed, since their dad caught them playing rough, but also dangerous, yet laughing about it.

On Saturday, we had 2 little gym classes. Then attended Humza and Zach's birthday party at 321 bounce in bellevue. Surprisingly, there were mostly boys there. Zachary didn't invite his latest crush...nor did Humza. I got my workout overthere playing bouncy basketball with Jacob.
Right after this we headed out to Port Orchard for a twice rescheduled Christmas Party with the B-town ladies and Rosque. It was a fun time with good friends. We took the Southworth/Fontleroy ferry back, which was not bad at all.

On Sunday, we were at church early for fundraising/volunteer stuff for 2 different masses. Then had a quick lunch with Dad. We spent the rest of the day at the Science center for the model train show. We met another family there for a "family play date" and the 4 kids wore out the 4 adults big time. It was very fun.

Here's a pick of Jonny riding a pig with wings before we went into the Science Center.(jacob didn't want his picture taken)


So today, I'm working, the kids are with lola relaxing. It will be a >1 cup coffee day today.
