I never know what to say

I'd blog more but I never know what to say.  I type something up and then think that is stupid and delete it all.  Interesting things do happen here, but by the time I get to the computer I've forgotten half the story.  That's probably why I don't keep a journal because I can't remember any thing that happened.  Of course if I did keep a journal it might help me remember what happened.  That is one of those chicken and egg things I guess.
I do recall one item from the day, Emily and Isaiah were talking and she was saying something to him about back in the day....  I thought this was hilarious as she is only 9 and 3/4. 

Well I did warn you that I didn't have anything to say so if you read this anyway you can't blame me.

In the News

So first of all it's been a while since I've blogged but I updated our antivirus and it messed up my computer and we just got it all straightened out. 
So I'm watching the cbs evening news and there is a story about a planet in another galaxy, so already how is this affecting me.  The point of the story was that the planet is too close to it's sun and it's orbit is getting pulled in or something and that it will melted or dissolved or something into it's sun.  So maybe a little interesting but then they say it's not going to happen for 10 million years.  1st of all seriously how do they know that, 2nd of all if this is not going to happen for 10 million years why waste my time telling me, because no one listening to this story will be here to see it happen.  There had to be something more pressing in this world that they could have spend that time telling us. I just found it rather hilarious.

Babies and Phones

What is a babies fascination with a phone?  I think it is hilarious.  They will hold up anything with buttons or even mildly shaped like a phone to their ear.  Well actually they hold it up to the back of their head which is even funnier.  I have countless pictures of my children trying to talk on a phone.  I thought of this as I took away my phone from my daughter and then she found my lablemaker and put that up to her head and tried to talk into in. 

Pictures

I decided with it being a little cloudy out it would be a great day for pictures outside. ( Which they turned out really cute, you can see them on facebook. )  So I started the process of getting myself and the 2 girls ready for the pictures.  Within 5 minutes Kacee had already gotten something on her clothes and so on it went.  I recall now why our family picture is so outdated.  It is no fun trying to get everyone ready for a picture, keep them clean and then get them to stand still and smile. So we have a family picture scheduled for next week, it should be interesting to say the least.

Isaiah's Field Trip

So today I got to Chaperone Isaiah's class trip to the Science Museum.  If this doesn't say we love our children I don't know what does.  We rode on the bus for about 1 1/2 hours up there went through the museum for an hour ate lunch watched an Omnimax presentation and rode the 1 1/2 back.  So most chaperones had 2 maybe 3.  I got 4 boys.  Overall they were pretty good, but if you know how loud my son is one of them was louder and more hyper than mine.  Plus they all wanted to go in different directions, almost lost one once(never fear he didn't get to far).  Overall they were pretty good though. 

On the way home we were riding in the back of the bus (which I am way to old to do, very bumpy ride) and of course they were wound up and they were playing around.  They were playing some kind of game where bombs exploded and they all died.  Well that gave me an idea, I bribed them with something they were going to get anyway which was rootbeer floats back at school.  I told them whoever played dead or was the quietest all the way back to school would get their rootbeer float.  Worked like a charm 20 minutes of silence.  The other chaperones joked with me as to why I didn't think of that in the beginning. 

Kids

I love how kids think they know everything.   Josie says the silliest things.  Yesterday she was telling me something I don't remember what but it had a First of all and a Second of All.  Then today I tell Kacee to come back and she says yes mom and keeps on running away.
