Take me to the ball game

buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks...

We took the kids to the Ranger's game last night.

You have to fight for your right

to potty!!!!

Can you believe that this handsome devil had something to do with this?

All partied out


If I had a choice, I would put him in a sweater vest with a little bow tie every day. He may be destructive, but at least he'll do it with style.

Manic depression

Can I have this dance

for the rest of my life?

Elephant

My daughter has quite the memory. Sometimes it's a good thing; other times it bites you in the ass. Yesterday was a sweet memory.

"Mommy, do you remember when Bodhi came out of your birth canal?" What I wanted to say was, "How can I forget a six pound bowling ball tumbling through?"

"I ate ketchup chips. And WATERMELON! And got it on the bed." I can't believe she remembers such a minute detail. It did transport me back. Funny, I can still taste the chips.

Dig in,

Birthday girl


dig in!

Happy Birthday Evelyn!

Love,
Uncle Boogie, Aunt Cinnie, Mimi and Bobo

Happy Birthday Evie!

My little niece will be one tomorrow! I can't believe that she is one already. Everyone give a shout out to my baby niece and wish her a Happy Birthday.

Rainy Day Fun

Summer rain. Only good thing about Texas summers. I love dancing in the rain just as much as I love running through the sprinklers.
We missed the rain this morning, but the sequel is just as fun. Puddles!

We decided to make boats. I made two kinds: a row boat and sail boat. Which one do you think will float better?



As soon as the rowboat hit the water, it pretty much sank.

The sail boat floated much better! Even when Desmina put the boat in sideways and getting it partially wet, the boat floated when turned rightside up.
The aftermath:

God is a female?

Human: Who are you?
God: I am the Allmighty, God himself.
Human: Don't you mean herself?
God: Don't you? Yes, that's what I mean, isn't it clear?

Wordless Wednesday

except to say I love my new camera!

Six Flags

Sunday we went to Six Flags. I have always had fond memories of going with my sisters. I remember walking all day until my feet felt like they were going to fall off, the trip home and feeling like I was still riding roller coasters and the endless amount of junk food. I am so big on making special memories for my kids. I really hope that Desmina remembers this trip fondly.


Kids turn to pose

All whole reason for going to Six Flags was to have Desi meet Tweety Bird. She calls him "Twis." Angel, the dog, ate her Twis doll. She was very upset over it. I wanted her to have special memories of how she got a new Twis doll since her dad was gone for so long. She doesn't l.book to excited, I know..this is her face when she rode The Conquisador, the boat that goes really high and back down. Unfortunately, she was not enough for many of the rides. Desmina is a thrill rider, surprisingly. The little girl who is too timid to go down the big curly slide until her brother does it first loves to ride roller coasters.

This was Bodhi most of the day.

Cooling off in the stinky fish water. Ah well, at least she had fun while the adults rode Batman.


This picture cracks me up.

What you woulnd't do for your toddler

Going out in Texas weather...


Suckers...
That is what I usually say when I see a long line. But today, just call us Dum-Dum or toostie roll pop.
We waited an hour...fortunately, while we waited...





What was an hour worth waiting? And $50 admission (although that isn't bad for theme parks these day). It's not a spectacular ride, I can tell you for sure. or free tickets.


Dora the Explore!!!!

Dora the Explore supports breastfeeding!

Happy Love Thursday

Fred is finally here! The kids and I really missed him.

Happy Love Thursday

She loves the water that much
