1 down 19 to go.

Indiana pulled his first tooth out.

Exhibit A: The Tooth

Exhibit B: Gappy Smile

New Edition

I heard some laughter and this is what I found. Mimi:"I get down now." See her white-knuckling her knee? She seems brave, but she also has times of being scared.

Late Monday Post

Mimi:"You da bread, I da cheese". A Gibby sandwich. I was late again with my Monday post, a whole day late this week, here's why:

We put in 9 NEW windows! We even replaced 2 replacement windows. I feel a difference already!

Cookie Jar that never holds cookies

playing with Mimi

It's cold and yucky outside, and we are playing the part by staying in PJ's all day and playing with whatever we can find around the house. Here's her "boots". She LOVES this basket. I can't keep anything in it.

"It a grog damp!" [it's a frog stamp]

Nerd Cred

Indy, in a attempt to further establish his nerd credentials, asked how to say Rancor in Spanish.

Math

Indiana is taller then a chick, a duck and a pig. Those lines? That means he is EQUAL to the height of a sheep. Math nerd.

Let's Party!

I love apples. I love apple cider even more. Here's a fun commentary about them.

Feel like wasting time? I can't seem to save more then 73 apples a game. Thanks, mom.

Pea Toss

Mimi has started trying to toss food in her mouth--NO idea how where she got this idea. I personally haven't tried it since I nearly choked myself when I was 12 with a skittle.

"and try another one"

And here's a joke:

"Why did the hippo cross the road?"
punch line:
"it was the chicken's day off!"

97 bulbs, 2 cars, and a dvd player

That's what we did today! Greg has been studying since we moved in and we haven't really had a day to get things settled. Today was our day. We cleared out the garage so now 2 cars can fit! And we planted 97 bulbs, Mimi is surprisingly helpful at some things --thanks for the tulips, Nana. One box we found had some of Greg's childhood toys. This one is a Transformer, keep in mind it's from the 80's, it's a robot that changes into a cassette tape player--ah, my child of the oughts.

Mimi's Star Wars dialog

Mimi, referring to the toilet paper tube on her wrist, with her right arm and left arm talking about it:
"Look! I R2D2! Yup, you R2D2! It brake, it perfect. It fits, yup, it fits, yup, you R2D2. It's mine, no it's mine! Hey, share"
*munch*munch*munch*
me:"AUGH! don't eat the tube!"

More of Darth Vader
"I put my helmet on! Yeah, this I little Darth Vader, this my little Darth Vader."
*Breath like Darth*
As I'm uploading this Mimi says:"Dis is gonna be great!"

A post about Greg

So there's this guy who hangs around sometimes, and we are getting to know him again. Greg's new job allows for him to be home SO much more, it's like heaven to all of us. And especially when he doesn't have an actuarial exam to study for, it's even better! This weekend he put in a new toilet downstairs. It's funny how owning a home suddenly makes you a plumber. Now when we flush, it doesn't feel like Lake Erie is running through our living room.

One birthday/Two Cakes
Mimi set the table. Greg's never had a Halloween themed cake, even though it's in the beginning of Nov. Our friend Drew was our inspiration.
Greg picked hamburgers for his dinner, for BOTH parties.
We had another party when we could get together with Greg's mom and dad and sister, thanks for coming! Can you see the change in the window covering from one day to the next?
Mimi and Greg making Orange juice for his belated birthday breakfast.
