Too Smart For Me
Today at dinner we were teasing the kids (as usual). Chad asked for a vote as to who wanted to keep the desert I made. He and the kids raised their hands. Then he asked who wanted to throw it away. I raised my hand. I told the kids I win because my vote is worth five points. G-man shot back that his vote and Kiwi's vote are worth ten, so they win. That kid is so smart. Gone are the days of blind faith and obedience. I've taught him well.

Our Dad
In honor of Father's Day we made up a song. Chad, we're glad you don't smell too bad. Love you!
Who can guess where the tune comes from? I'll give you a hint: he's bald and talks like a girl.

Adventures in California
We spent the past week in Anaheim celebrating Chad's birthday and graduation. Thankfully his 30th birthday coincided with his graduation so we could justify spending way too much money. We went with Laurel, Bill, and their three girls who are about the same ages as our kids. It was nice to have another couple to help watch kids so we could take turns going on the fun rides. We got a few crazy looks when it was our turn to watch the six kids (all under the age of 7). One lady told us we could do our own reality show if they were all ours. Here are a few of the highlights of the trip.
1. Saving money on the ticket by going on Chad's birthday. The added bonus was everytime a Disney employee noticed his button they wished him a happy birthday. Same rule applied to any teenagers standing in line with us. Great fun to watch my husband be embarrassed. Unfortunately that was about the only benefit. The birthday button did not come with a free pass to skip to the front of the line.
3. Teaching Kiwi to pee in the Ocean. What is it with little girls and deciding they have to go pee 5 minutes after arriving at your destination.
4. Pooping adventures with Scooch. First poo fell out of his diaper in the lobby. We had left the wipes in the car and ended up wiping it up with an empty Goldfish cracker package. Then in a brief moment of diaperlessness he managed to lay one on the floor of our room. I blame Chad. This day also included a Kiwi pee accident in Laurel and bill's room and the Beach incident. It was just one of those bodily function full days.
8. Listening to G-man scream on Space Mountain. We had taken him on Splash Mountain and Matterhorn before this. After Space Mountain he refused to go on anymore Rollercoasters.
9. Watching these tow friends together. Two four year old girls walking hand in hand through the Haunted Mansion line was too cute. So was their reaction to the Haunter Mansion ride.
10. This picture. Classic. I wonder how many other people took pictures of my backside.
