Bradys words

Just in the last 2 weeks Brady has been trying to say EVERYTHING! The other day he looked at me and said, "Mommy Oide"... I blew it off like it was nothing, come to find out from his Japanese teacher oide means "come here". So he's off and running with his little mouth...

Arrrggg!!!... Gabe is 6!

We had a BIG PIRATE birthday party today for Gabes 6th birthday. We invited his classmates from Busy Bee to our house. We had games, crafts, a treasure hunt and a Pinata. Even though it rained the entire time, it was 3 hours of NON-STOP fun!

Hope you like the pictures and the video of his class singing to him!







The boys AFTER the big party!

2009 - Where has the time gone?...

Wow I've really been a slacker! Haven't posted since Christmas, and it's now MARCH! We'll I have good excuses :)

We moved from our apt to a 50 year old house ON-BASE. It's been 7 weeks now, and it's not been the greatest of times... moving never is. But we didn't think the BUGS would be so bad?! The second week, Jim and I were woke up at 430am with a 3 inch centipede IN OUR BED... and it had BITTEN BOTH OF US! We were fine, but I was on a mission - KILL ALL MOVING INSECTS.

I've sprayed, spackled, sprinkled poison,... you name it! And knock on wood, we've seen nothing but a couple black ants since.

Gabe and Brady have adjusted well, they love living somewhere that has kids running thru your yard all the time. He's made good friends with a boy and girl across the street who come to visit all the time. He's going to be 6 on March 30, so we are having a PIRATE birthday party and have invited his class. The Japanes LOVE coming to American houses, so they are all coming, and brining their whole family! We have 29 confirmed so far?! You'll def be getting pics and more info on that one, stay tuned.

Brady is still determined NOT to talk! He's got more sounds - mostly screams - but he's just not interested. He'll whisper a few things like "bay-bee" or "GUM" when he sees his gummy vitamins, but no putting any words together. Just point and scream, that's his deal. He wants to follow Gabe everywhere and still has a passion, and I mean SEVERE passion for Thomas the Tank Engine. He watches those videos and pushes around those trains all the time. Better than Barbies, is what Jim says :)

So just a few pics now; some of the "new" house, and the red painted bedroom I did for the boys. I hope I remember how to do this again!
