Breanna had a message to get across and she was determined to get it all at once.
She was trying so hard to say it all at once and the hiccups just kept getting in the way it was so cute.

Jon's Dragon Boat Team In Lethbridge

Canada Day Shenanigans

Kite Flying

Flying our new (to us) kite.

Look four our new kite at the top of the tree. We think the string snapped. It was neat to watch it sail away. Right up until it landed.

Finding other fun... Ready .... Set... Roll!
Well if there is not kite to fly why dont we try to do it ourselves.

Our kite still sits at the top of the tree. We have yet to figure out how to get it down. Wind was blowing such that the kite was plasterd into the tree there was not way we could shake it down. And I briefly contemplated throwing things but that would probably just mean I would have a kite and a couple sandals stuck in the tree. Easy come easy go.

On her graduation from a car seat to a booster seat.

Breanna: Ryan when you are big enough you can have a booster seat like me!

Ryan: When Im big enough I wanna DRIVE!

here and there

• Breanna had her preschool graduation. I know it seems so funny she is not even five and has already had a "graduation" ceremony. She loved it of course and dad got her a pink stuffed unicorn as her graduation present
• Fathers day has come and gone. Dad got a Beta fish to keep on his desk. Dad asked Breanna what to name it she then told him that he should name it. Jon suggested munchkin. Breanna then said she wanted to name him Donut because she wanted him to have a funny name. Im not sure if the spelling is Doughnut or Donut offically.
• Skyler is sitting and doing the army crawl and will very soon be crawling on all fours. He is beginning to discover the wonderful world of food. Good times. I think he knows that our food tastes better then his does and is always looking at it.
• Ryan is growing by leaps and bounds. He shot up a couple of inches in just a couple of months and out grew pretty much all his pants at the same time. Time for summer cut offs! He is talking more and getting much more conversational.
• We have decided against moving to Saskatoon. For those of you who dont know we had decided to moved to Saskatoon in the hopes that we could buy a house. In the end the houses we could afford were in places we did not want to be in. We thought of renting and decided in the end we would not save that much over what we are paying here. I am happy that we are here. We feel that this is still the place that we are supposed to be. As much as I wanted to be able to own a home we realize that it was not going to work out. We will see what the future has we may move away from Edmonton one day but for now we will stay where we are.
• Jon has offically finished his training at work yay and is now a permanent employee of the government. He is really doing great and enjoying it.
• And it is totaly time for me to go to bed. goodnight.

Their wonderful disgusting imagination.

At the breakfast table eating their oatmeal.

Ryan: Me eating big poop mommy.

Mom: Huh? What did you say?

Ryan: Me eating big poop mommy.

Mom: Breanna what are you eating?

Breanna: Uh nufing?

Mom: What are you pretending to eat?

Pause......

Breanna: Worms! we are baby birds eating worms!

Ryan: Yeah we eating worms.

Featuring a Built In Swimming pool

This morning I got a big pile of laundry ready to take to the basement to wash. Unfortunatley it got stuck on the landing upstairs for a while. Where the kids decided it made a great swimming pool. You know you have too much laundry when your kids can jump down 5 stairs into it and not get hurt.

Well eventually the laundry made its way off the stairs. (ok now it is sitting on the landing in the basement but we will not talk about that) apparently the kids decided the swimming pool was so much fun the first time that they have recreated it again. with a laundry pile of their own creation. I am afraid to find out where it came from.

Bug vs Fry

My two older children are so different in some ways but compliment each other at the same time. Here are some examples.

Computer Games

Breanna: Loves to play
Ryan: Happy to watch.
(ok fine this one has started to change but I loved the way it used to be)

Ham and pineapple pizza:

Ryan: picks all the pineapple off and does not eat it.
Breanna: Eats her pinapple first and happilly takes care of Ryan's as well.

Toilet Flushing.

Breanna: Never remembers to flush.
Ryan: Happy to flush for her and anyone else. Will even stand outside the bathroom door and ask to flush.

Hamburger Helper

Ryan: Eats all the meat
Breanna: Eats all the pasta.
SWITCH PLATES!

• I need to go potty!
• Im a bird that has escaped from its cage
• Super girl is trapped! Someone save me.

Breanna's attempts at rescue after being sent to time out. And why might she be in time outyou ask? Well she bonked Ryan in the head with a little wooden box. Which Im not sure was intentional. You might wonder why I sent her to time out if I dont think she meant to hit him in the head. Well It is because it hit him in the head while it was being used to pour melted ice cream all over him.

My children have this ability to be so creatively mischevous.
