Emily's Webkinz addiction!

It's bad, it's REALLY bad and I am beginning to think she needs a 12-step program!
Everyone probably knows Emily LOVES stuffed animals AND computer games.
Well, GANZ created the best of both world just for Emily - HA!.

Emily can take care of her stuffed animals at home AND virtually Webkinz World

She has SEVEN Webkinz that she takes care of regularly

Alicia - Basset Hound
Princess - Chihuahua
Ariel - Unicorn
Dora - Clydesdale
Sleeping Beauty - Pink Pony
Boomba - Panda
Rawhide - Black Lab (this one is actually Elliot's)

... and I am sure she will hit you all up for a new one (with Christmas and her birthday right around the corner).

So, if you happen across a 12 step program for little kids with Webkinz addictions, please let us know!

Thanks a lot Me Me and Paw Paw!

The Elliot and Caitlyn Show!!

Here are some cute pictures of the cousins playing together! They are just too darn cute - I can't believe they are already 6 months old - time really does fly!

Before we know it they will be walking, talking and driving - YIKES!

Here they are singing about something - what, we don't know! Hey Caitlyn, can I have a kiss?
No way man, that's gross!!
NO! NO! NO kisses Elliot!!
Caitlyn: "HAHAHA I poked him in the eye" Elliot: "One of these days .... One of these days!" "Let me show you how this toy works ... It's really cool"

Elliot's 6 month check up

Elliot had his 6-month check up today (wow, time really does fly!!)

He needed two shots (poor bug) but only cried for a couple of seconds.
He's such a little trooper.

He weighed in at 17lbs 11oz (75%) is 28 inches long (90%) and his melon is 17 3/4 inches (75%)

No problems to report (phew)!

The funniest thing happened ... Dr. Urrea was listening to Elliot's stomach and asked Emily what might be in there ... Emily's reply was "Boobie Milk" - HAHAHAHAHA

And because I was curious I looked up Emily's 6 month stats ....
She weighed 17lbs 5oz was 25 inches long and her melon was 17 inches

Have a super day.

Green Beans are tasty

Elliot wanted to try some Green Beans today. Yummmy!!

Ummm, mom why are those beans GREEN??Down the hatch!
Hey,those are pretty good! Can I have some more?
I'm stuffed and have a green bean moustache!

Bath time

Awwww, their first bath together! Great blackmail pictures right?

Elliot and I were watching Emily take a bath and he started kicking his feet and laughing at the water. We decided to see if he'd enjoy taking a bath in the "big tub" with sister and as you can see, he had a great time. Emily said she wants to take a bath with him every day - but I am certain she'll get tired of him trying to take her bath toys soon.

This is Elliot's Gene Simmons impersonation. As long as he doesn't put on the KISS make-up and bat wings, we'll be OK!

Elliot is practicing his kick kick kicking while Emily holds on tight!

Quick Update

Emily is 4.5 years old (where does the time go?!?). She is in pre-school 3-days a week and is learning so much. It’s hard to believe she will start kindergarten next fall (YIKES).
She’s a mess and keeps us laughing MOST of the time - the rest of the time … well … let’s just say she has very strong opinions about everything!

Elliot is 6 months old and super laid back. He’s happy 99.9% of the day. He loves his big sister and laughs at her constantly.

They are both in swimming lessons at Emler Swim School.
Emily is a little fish and Elliot is learning to kick and hold his breath.

Wayne is actually working at Emler part-time and enjoys watching all the kiddos (and we get half price swimming lessons!!)

I am still at Hoover’s, Inc (a Dun and Bradstreet Company). It’s been almost 7 years (WOW) and I still enjoy it most days.

So now you are up to speed - wow that didn't take long did it?
I’ll be back with news as it breaks (wait, I sound like the local news)!

Elliot going under water with Ms Glenna ....

Emily relaxing in Aunt Franny and Uncle Lester's pool Yeee Haaawwww .... Emily's trying to make Cheyenne stand up!
OK, no one told me the remote fetish started THIS early ...
