Cassie Shows Off Her Secret Stuff

Did I tell you about the day Jamie guessed what was in Cassie's little purse? No... be glad. But, basically Cassie keeps certain items in this little cat purse she carries around. Everything in there is secret and Jamie and Daddy cannot know what it is. It's girl stuff. It's very important.

Fast forward to Tom and I in the van with our 2 kids and an extra. Jamie guesses that the bead necklace is in the purse. He's right. The amount of screaming that ensues shatters the windshield. So, I buy Cassie new secret stuff...

3 days later, she and Jamie make a deal to show each other their secret stuff. (And yeah, I followed Jamie to make sure what secrets he was showing LOL) So, all that screaming was for naught.

And now she wants me to post this so the little girl next door will see it.



Yes, I added the butterflies cuz I wanted to hear her giggle...

:)

Cassie Finally Slides Down...

Another one from Sunday... Cassie finally decides to slide down... and I got nothing but crappy shots because it was shaded by then, so you get a sepia "fix" ;)

Lego Mindstorms Videos - Finally!

Okay, I'm ignoring the fact that the sound didn't come over, but I finally got the video off of my cell phone!

This is this week. They made helicopters. Way cool, dude!


I like last week's the best though... robot dogs! They used the sensors so that if they started coming close to you, it would back up. Really cute. They didn't program it to bark though - LOL


I think they made this one the week before... whatever... anyway, here's a merry-go-round:

Popsicle Cheers At the slide

From Sunday... I gave them all Popsicles (shhh... don't tell their moms!). I thought it was cute how they all hung out on the little outcropping together to eat them...

Jamie's gonna be a fish store owner!

... apparently.

I'm guessing this was some "draw what you want to do when you grow up" type of thing. He came home with this several days ago. There's a shop with a big sign off of the main freeway that is called Pet Supplies Plus. I guess he sees it often enough, he drew it! I thought he did a pretty good job, lotsa detail going on here!



It says "Pets Supplies Plus" and under that I think it says "Fish Free"



I think this says "I sell fish and fish food. They would buy these."
"Fish Surprise"
"Goldfish"
"WooHoo"
"Fish Food"
"For your happy fish"

Okay, that last bit made me seriously LOL

*giggle*

Dakota gets a new BFF

Our friend, J, had the class pet (this stuffed lizard - I dunno, it's weird, but whatever). So I took a picture of him with his new BFF, Dakota, our lizard.

J's mom made me, I'm not THAT corny.

Errr... okay.

Helicopter at Mindstorms

Deep Sea Divers

Last week, the kids were playing in the little pool and asked for their masks and snorkels. They were deep sea divers and needed their equipment, ya know!

Getting Ready For The Pool....

Over the weekend, the kids were getting ready to go swimming Jamie wanted me to take his picture with the whale...

Everyone sing, Laurie Berkner style with me now.. "Jamie's got a whale on his head, Jamie's got a whale on his head, Jamie's got a whale on his head, and it likes to stay all day"



Cassie was being a brat, so I stole this picture... LOL

Jamies Mothers Day Letter 2008

Jamies Mothers Day Letter 2008
Originally uploaded by CandyTX

I found this in Jamie's bookbag this morning. I can only guess that this is something they made for Mother's Day. I feel all gushy that it does look like he spent a good deal of time coloring it in.

BUT... read the first line. Ummm... yeah... I came back in from dropping him at school and proclaimed to Tom that he needed to lick my hand and tell me what I tasted like. He looked at me like I had 2 heads. *laugh*


In case you don't read First Grade, "Moms taste like milk. Oh mommy you are the best. Mom let's go to Sea World. Mom, let's go swimming. You are the very very best. From Jamie."

Other than the random milk thing, I think he's sucking up for a Sea World and/or pool trip, eh? ;)
