Birthday Time!!


This is my brother Chris.
His middle name is Lenoy.
Yesterday was his birthday.
When we were little I used to call him Christopher "annoys me" Christiansen.
One time I threw his Ninja Turtle against the fireplace and it broke into a ton of pieces. He cried.
(He still uses that one against me to prove how horrible I am.)
When we were little and swimming in our backyard pool I would float on my stomach and pretend I had drowned. He would run into the house screaming. I did it over and over for years. It never got old.
(I think he would still fall for it now.)
We did have a lot of fun, though. We still do.
He makes me laugh.
Usually because he is making fun of someone else.
Happy Birthday, Chris!
Love,
Your sister.
P.S.
Sorry about the Ninja Turtle.








This is my Dad.
His birthday is today.
He is the best dad I ever had.
He is kind and the "strong, silent type".
We love to quote every single line from the movie Ghostbusters.
(That movie's lines can really work in absolutely every situation you come across in life!)
He is an unbelievable Grandpa.
Happy Birthday, Dad!!
Love,
your daughter

Yay for me!!




I am writing this blog as a metaphorical "pat on the back" for myself. I just finished my third semester in Grad School! In the last 2 weeks I have submitted a 15 page Graphic Design project, a Powepoint presentation, a 20 page paper, a 5 page paper, 3 final exams and countless dicussion posts.... Whew!!! I am tired.




Now for finishing Christmas shopping, mothering a 2 year old and a 4 year old, housewifery duties, growing a fetus in my abdomen and maybe a nap?

Lately...

Lately we have been pretty busy...


We have had super hero duties to attend to...






We have been building forts....


We have been playing soccer....


We LOVE soccer!!!




We had our yearly check-ups at the doctor and got to wear these cool robes...




We decided to revolt against naps, so mommy has been struggling to find something for us to do in the afternoon so she wont pull her hair out.
Liam falls asleep before we are even at the end of our street, but he did have time to put Mickey on his shoulders first....






We lunched with the ladies and tried out some Jackie O sunglasses while we were at it....
