Bad To The Bone

My lil Stinker. He used to be my sweet quiet boy. Now he is crazy and fun getting into lots of trouble. He loves going out back to ride around on his trike. But this morning I caught him in heels and pushing a shopping cart. Something Rami would die if he saw, cause it's not MANLY.

Thanks Fadi and Heather

Uncle Fadi and Aunt Heather always have a special halloween treat for the kids. This year they got a special box in the mail. And they were so excited to get more halloween novelties. Glow sticks(always a favorite), stickers, crazy candy of human parts, candy snakes and bugs. Can you believe that snake in blakes mouth is a big jelly candy. Thanks guys, we miss you.

Sydney The Lil Teacher

Here is Sydney working on new words with Blake.

Forts and a Messy House

Lately the kids have been making Forts, EVERYWHERE, EVERY ROOM! I havent been able to keep the house clean for one day with these two. But it's cool. They have been having fun, just don't be surprised if you come over and the casa is out of control!

Saying hi to mommy

A visitor from Indiana

Natalia's boys were in town to see there dad so we got to spend some time with Lucas. He is one of Sydney's best buddies from Indiana. It was like they just saw eachother. They started chatting and playing right away. It was so fun to have him over.

Happy Halloween

This year we went trunk or treating at church. The kids had so much fun and were exhausted by the end.

Blake was a pro this year at trick or treating. He held his own bag and walked to everyplace we went. As you can see Blake is an elephant and Sydney is a cheerleader.


Blake normally has a flat butty but today he has a honorary michaelis butty.

6 AM ENERGY AND INSPIRATIONS

Bright and Early Saturday Morning

The kids have been waking up early all week and saturday the kids and I were out of bed by 6 am. Can you believe all you can acomplish by 12 noon by getting up so early. For some reason I woke up with alot of energy. Usually I would just be a big grump all morning but that morning felt great. The kids had a bath and were dressed right away, then went out back to play while I made breakfeast. Sydney had fun creating her own exercise bike while Blake rode on his bike. I had a shower and then started cleaning the house. Even dusting and cleaning glass. We were out the door at 10:30 to go to Old Navy. They were having a special halloween deal with $1 t-shirts and prizes if you wore a costume. By 12 we were home and napping. And by 3 the house looked like it did before my big cleanup.
