Where are the fish?

They've been gone for close to a year, but Keanu remembers helping Teresa feed her fish.

Keanu: Where are Gugu's fish?
me: She took them to (her husband's) shop, remember?
K: Why?
Me: Because she spends more time there than she does here.
K: Why?
Me: Because she loves him. You know what? Someday when you get really big you might find someone to love and marry, too.
K: You mean like Kate?

No, you're not going to marry your sister!

Why do we have to wear seatbelts?


That's the question I heard from the back seat one day last week coming home from school. So we went home and did our own version of the Crash Test Dummies with Legos. Conclusion: without being properly attached a bear and robot will fly out of the back of a truck.

It's a girl -

and she's wearing a dress!
It doesn't happen often, so we've got to document it when it does!

April 1

2007 - A gorgeous Sunday in which we took our newborn out wearing shorts!
2011 - A chilly Friday (but nothing compared to the frigid temps earlier in the week!) in which our preschooler is spending the evening playing with the fishing pole that his school gave him for children's day (4/4). You might also notice the remote controlled helicopter sitting beside him. That's his newest favorite. More on that one another day!

Where 'd he go?

Here's a fun game for you. See this bird?

Can you find him/her in this picture that Keanu took when he kidnapped my camera?
We were at CKS Memorial hall a couple of weeks ago to feed the fish when we saw several bird watchers with giant camera looking for something. I figured out it must be that bird and that was the best shot I could get of it with my little point and shoot.

Now, here's the next question, what kind of bird is it and why was it attracting so much attention?

Best Buddies


Keanu: Mommy, Kate's playing with my computer!
Me: That's OK. Why don't you play with her?
Keanu: Oh, OK. Kate, can I play, too?
Kate: Yayyyy!

If only this weren't the rare exception to the rule...
