Transportation Day

Today was Transportation Day at school! Dada and Aiden did a great job of making a Transformers Camero! Well, mainly Dada, but Aiden helped a little.

Sounds from the playroom

Aiden and Ana are playing in the playroom this afternoon waiting to leave for music class. This is the conversation coming from the playroom...

Aiden: Ana, what do you want to watch?
Ana: Woody! (This means Toy Story 3 in her language)
Aiden: NO!! You watch that tooooooo much.
Ana: NOOOOOOO I watch Woody!!!
Aiden: How about Johnny Test?
Ana: NOOOOOO I watch Woody!
Aiden: How about Justin Beiber? (I don't know, don't ask, I think they're flipping through Netflix)
Ana: NOOOOOO I watch Woody!
Aiden: How about Johnny Test, you like Johnny Test, it's got a great song.
Ana: OK.

They are so funny to listen to and watch play with each other (when they're not trying to kill each other)

Gummy

We announced yesterday that we're pregnant with Rosales #5. We're due October 5th!

I've talked to Aiden about the new baby and if he would like another sister or a little brother. His wish is a baby brother. Probably, because his sister beats up on him all the time and if there were 2 girls he probably wouldn't stand a chance.

This afternoon we discussed it again. He said, "yah, I want a baby brother. That way we can get a job at the video store and buy video games and play video games all the time." To which I said, "hummm, sounds like a fun job."

So far it feels like Ana's pregnancy, but we'll see how it goes. I've also had some spotting which is always scary. We saw Dr S (OBGYN) and he said the same thing that he said with Ana. 40% of pregnancies spot/bleed, 50% of those miscarriage. He said that it is a good sign that I feel pregnant. He said that the women that come in and don't feel pregnant are more likely to miscarriage. So, please say a prayer or two for baby #3 (gummy bear). It's very nerve wrecking but we believe that what is meant to happen will and it's out of our hands. Otherwise, I'd worry myself to death and that probably wouldn't help Gummy either.

We'll keep you updated on what's going on with our family as a whole and with Gummy!

Wicked

Last weekend Robert and I drove down to see Wicked in Austin with Mickey, Jeff and Jana. It was a much needed restful weekend. We didn't do much other than sleep, eat, watch Wicked, eat and sleep some more.

This was Robert's 3rd time to see it and my 4th time. Yes, I tried to keep it from him, but I did go see it without him once in San Francisco (with Mickey). I even almost got to see it in NYC, but there were only $400 tickets on the night I could see it and Robert also threatened me with divorce if I "cheated" on him again.

It was a wonderful presentation of our favorite musical & we really enjoyed it.

The kids stayed in Fort Worth with Tia Carmen, Tio Roger & DD. I don't even know that we told them what we were soon because I'm pretty sure Aiden hasn't seen The Wizard of Oz (it's a bit scary for a 5 yr old). So, that makes the below story even more funny.

I have always been able to related with Elphaba (the wicked witch of the west) because she tries so hard to be a good person and it bites her in the butt. This happens to me quite often as well. So, I just own it now and say, "no good deeds go unpunished."

This morning Aiden was pretending he had a magic wand. He turned Romo into a princess. Then, he turned his sister into a duck. As I passed through the room he said, "I turn mommy into a witch!" and giggled. I then ran across the room and jumped on the sofa and said, "but I'm already a witch and a bad witch at that." then tickled him. He giggled and then looked at me with big eyes. I could only imagine him thinking she probably is a witch. Which, makes me happy.

I hope you find a smile in your day!

Super Bowl Sunday

Ana and Dada had a moment watching the game and thought I would post!

Funny Pictures

I just had to share a couple of recent pictures of our babes.

Last weekend Dada took the kiddos to the mall to play at the playground and ride the carousel, while Mama held the couch down at home. :) Sometimes, superwoman needs a day off.

Our Niece Dani (the babes call her DD) and Ana hung out for a little bit on Sunday and they took some really cute pictures.


This is Ana's kiss face :)

This is her mean face. We see this face a lot.

This year we went to the Fort Worth Stock Show twice! The 2nd time through we went to the exhibit hall and Aiden had to have a red cowboy hat. He LOVES it. Sister also had to have a pink one, but she wouldn't stand still long enough for a picture.

Hope you have a great week!!

Transportation Day

So Aiden has a class assignment to build, out of cardboard, any type of transportation vehicle to parade around in at school in March.  He has decided on a car from Cars 2!  So that means really, that I will probably be doing a bulk of work while he sits and watches.  So I thought I'd post some progress pictures to show how its going.

This is what he wants it to look like:

Here is our progress:

Wish us luck, we'll keep you posted!

Little surprises

Love this weather.

We've had some great weather this weekend which has prompted our family to be outside. So I took the kiddos to park this afternoon to enjoy some sun and the amazing weather
Cheers!

So tired

Ana looks as tired as I feel.
