Child Wonders

Hello there! We've got a fun show for you tonight...or today...or.....okay whatever.

We start you off with some random photos from the end of January. There are some great pics from our little fishing excursion in Lake Laguna Niguel. Brian and Erica were kind enough to snag a primo spot at the lake (they left at 4 am) and we enjoyed ourselves immensely that morning. Mike and the boys were out camping, so I just had Alana with me. We caught three trout and had a great time doing it! Alana was such a cutie and was so happy the whole time. I brought her pack and play so she could hang with us. Unfortunately, there was a tree (Brian's favorite tree) that hung over the area where we were sitting. The birds congregated there and proceeded to unleash a sequence of poops that forced us to move our location a bit. I don't think I've ever been pooped on so much! Well, at least by a bird...

In other news....KIMMY AND BART GOT ENGAGED ON JANUARY 28, 2014!!! YEAH BABY!

On February 1, Colleen treated us (and Katie, Dillon and Karston) to a tour up at Wild Wonders in Bonsall. It was such a great little place and the kids LOVED seeing all of the exotic animals. It was nice to be able to get up close and personal with the animals and to be able to touch some of them. Mike even got chastised for being too close to the fence once, hehe. Thank you Colleen and Bill for a wonderful "experience" Christmas present! We had a blast!




Snot bubble!

Playin' in the back yard.

Dane's Cub Scout troop got to go to the Carlsbad High School basketball game and talk to the players and cheerleaders. :)

First time angler!

This is Brian's special trick. He inserts a syringe into the worm and blows it up with air so it floats. Only Brian.

A couple of our beauties:)

Congratulations Bart and Kimmy! Can't wait for the big day!

Bart made a beautiful ring out of his mother's diamonds. WOW! Good man...


Ryan's creation. It's like Sputnik. Spherical but quite pointy at parts.

I think Alana seems more interested than Boehner at this point.

Ryan's preschool. They love Miss. Paige.


Dane does so well on his spelling tests!


The boys are ready for Wild Wonders!

And so is Alana:)


"Great. Another day with annoying kids."

Our first boo boo of the day and we hadn't even started yet!

Grandma Colleen holding baby Karston:)




Why?


They are so smelly!







 









"Git in mah belleh!"

 

Such a fat, cute little thing.

Tired little girl.


Ryan's new friend Em coming over to paint.

Em is 22 months old, 13 months older than Alana. They are the same size.

Ah. A broken monster truck. Shocking.

I could get used to this.
