My Little Man

Robert was having a rough night. His tummy hurt, his legs hurt, and his back hurt. So we were sitting in the rocking chair singing Jingle Bells (the only song he will allow you to sing to him) when he tried to tell me something. After a few attempts at translating I told him I didn't understand.

He sighed and said to me, "you don't know anything!"

Then after the briefest pause he quietly said, "you know you love me"

I do love that little man.

Crazy Absurd!

What a Sweetie!

This morning Robert brought me a hand held mirror and told me to look in it, which I did. Then he says, "see, you're pretty."

Awww, so sweet. Then again he wasn't wearing his glasses. Hmmm.

Sunbeam!

Today was Robert's first day in primary as a sunbeam. I had to sit with him most the time to keep him under control and at one point I told him, "This is opening exercises and then you'll go with your new teacher to class."

He jumps up and starts touching his toes and says "These are my exercises"

It was a good laugh at first, but trying to convince him that we didn't actually exercise in opening exercises didn't go over very well. I can't wait to see what next week brings!

ewwww GROSS!!!

I was drinking a glass of milk when it felt like I had a sliver of glass stuck in the inside of my lip. I pulled it out and realized it was a BUG!!!! I threw it on the table and the whole family screamed! It was the strangest and grossest thing to happen in 2009!

Happy New Year!

We stayed home and partied with the kids to bring in the new year. We played games, watched movies and and ate way to much junk. It was a fun night.

Here are a few highlights from 2008 in no particular order:

-Payed off the van. No more car payments!
-Spent 2 weeks in Utah with family and friends!
-Celebrated 10 years of marriage with a weekend getaway to LA!
-Watched William transition from baby to toddler.
-Took a trip to Disneyland, the happiest and most exhausting place on earth!
-Put sod in the backyard!
-Enjoyed our first major snowstorm in the desert.
-Enjoyed the passing of prop 8
-After 6 years of rabbit ears, FINALLY getting satellite TV

All in all it was a pretty quiet year, just the way we like em! Here's to a happy 2009!

Santa Ana Zoo

A couple of days ago we were feeling a little cabin fever so headed to the Santa Ana Zoo. It's a quaint little zoo, but we still had a good time. The highlights were Robert and William petting a goat and seeing a tarantula the size of a dinner plate.
