It's Not Very Often a 28 Year Old Gets a Photo Op Like This

I was the 'student of the week' a couple of weeks ago. I got to bring hedwig our class owl home and make a poster showing all my favorite things. One of the questions asked that I draw or take a picture of what I will look like in 20 years. So here it is, my picture of what I will look like in 20 years, that's right I'll be 28.

What's Your Hypothesis


I am conducting a science project! My new favorite past time. I have filled 5 jars with water and in each I have placed a different item. Now I need to know what do you think will happen?

Jar 1: Nails
Jar 2: Beans
Jar 3: Spaghetti
Jar 4: Raisins
Jar 5: Tin Foil

What do you think the water will taste like? What do you think it will look like?
Which one would you want to taste?
How will it smell?
Should I use the items after they have been in the water?

I look forward to hearing from you.

As Random As Me

I got to go see my Dad got a ACER award! I'm not sure what it is but the guy by him is someone called a See EEEE O! One of his students told his bosses he is an awesome teacher and so he got the award! The best part was we got to eat lunch with him.
Of course with a house full of girls we have to have a photo shoot after running and playing, 'hurdle over daddy's legs'. So here it is. The design is a Darby exclusive!
I really like my new sister, Shelbie. We play together all the time. It usually ends when mom yells at me to get off her. I don't know why we are just playing dog pile! I'm really good help at getting her diapers, sitting her in her bumbo, and I like to give her things to eat (licorice, peaches, crackers, lemons, m&m, you name it!) Here we are sleeping together!

$$$CHA-CHING$$$


2 Teeth, 1 Grandma, 12 Aunts and Uncles, and $26! That's right, I got my first 2 teeth pulled. I started a collection after my first tooth was pulled to see who would pay to see me get my second tooth pulled and after all was said I did end up with $26. Crazy Cool! I can't wait to loose more.

Give Me Give Me Give Me

You know when you want some thing real real bad? And you'd do almost anything for it? For me that thing is a nice slushy piece of heaven called an {otter pop}. That's right, I know, most kids my age don't even know what that is. But being born at 11 lbs I figure I'm just that much more mature, and soooooo much more ready for an {otter pop}! All mine, in pink, green, blue, purple, red, and orange. Mom's milk is definitely second best!

Moms Been Blog Hopping

So after mom's been blog hopping we start getting the itch (whether we want to or not) to post a new post (nag, nag). So mom here's our new post just so our blog can be at the top of someones list.

Dad has been working extra extra hard on the yard (the dirt patch out back). He thinks he is going to make it into an oasis. The other day he hauled us out there and made us shovel, rake, shovel, rake, oh yeah and take turns getting everyone glasses of water (to stay hi-rated). Of course we then get to jump into the pool or go to Bahama Bucks for a Coconut Kolona! However, I am proud to tell you that today (his day off) he tilled the yard and it looks like we'll be planting this next week.


(Jo trying to help dad fill the hole, I don't think she realizes, she is not the kind of 'living' thing dad wants in that hole)



Guess what else he did today! He brought us lunch at school. He wasn't to hip on eating the cafeteria food so he sent mom for a hot-and-ready and a bottle of what he calls the nectar of the gods (root beer), showered in the middle of his oasis turning chores, and road his bike to school to have lunch first with Emery then with me. I know my dad is the BEST!
