favorite color

So the girl's and I were at the store earlier and Emma asked Sara what her favorite color was. She responded "pink and Dora"...lol

ABC Workout

Okay, so I saw a rerun of this the other day and thought to myself "that looks like fun". So today I went and bought myself and the girl's weighted exercise balls. Mine is 5 lbs and the girl's are 2 lbs each. We are started our ABC workout tomorrow. Seems simple enough and it will help the girl's with their alphabet!



Here are the balls I bought.

Waiting on the world to change

I love the show So You Think You Can Dance. On the way to the store today the song "Waiting on the world to change" by John Mayer came on and I turned it up and sang along...thinking of the dance that the contestants on SYTYCD performed to it. So I found it and am sharing it with you. It's one of my favorite performances. It is choreographed by Wade Robson. Enjoy.


These are my fav choreographers from the show (in the order that I like them) Mia Michael's, Wade Robson, Shane Sparks and Dan Karaty.

I also decided to include John Mayer's video for the song. It's pretty darn cool.

Gifts

I bought the girl's these beautiful bracelets for Easter. I got them on Ebay on sale for only $3 each! I couldn't pass it up, they are so pretty. I think what I will actually give them to them for Valentine's Day. My mom bought them each dainty little crosses that have cubic zirconia in them so they sparkle. So I want to keep the tradition of jewelry gifts for them.
And of course I had to get myself one too. I actually found mine first and the same seller had the pink ones too. I saved them to my favorites so I can return and get more.
Here is another bracelet. I didn't buy this one yet, but I plan to.
This I did buy. It's more casual and I like that.
This is the perfect gift for Emma. She loves horses and they even have a matching bracelet. It will have to wait for her birthday though.
This is for little girl's too. Maybe this will be their Easter gift. It's hard to believe that all of these are under $4, some under $3! Boy I lucked into that!

I'm so bored

Seriously, the last 3 days have been soooo boring! There is absolutely nothing to do during the day. I hate daytime tv so that's out. I am going to start school on Monday. I can't take the boredom anymore and have to keep myself busy doing something during the day.

The last 2 nights Aaron came home from work and asked me when I was going to take down the Christmas tree. I'm not I told him. I guess I will today, it will give me something to do. I bought myself a game from www.BigFishGames.com I love that website, games are only $6.99. It's called Wedding dash but I've almost beat it.

I was going to make hair bows last night but I couldn't find my lighter to heat seal the ends. Bought one this morning so there is always that. Emma and Sara pretty much entertain themselves and play together so they could care less what I do.

If I had known it was going to be this way I would have checked some books out of the library for myself. Or rented a movie. Man this sucks.

I even called my sis in law Nicole this morning because I was bored and needed entertainment. But, she wasn't all that entertaining, so the call was short. Well.....I guess I will go find something to do because now this is boring me.

my alarm clock

My mom got the girl's cute little pink mp3 players for Christmas and I loaded them with a bunch of kid songs. This morning Sara woke me up by dancing in the kitchen and singing "who let the dogs out? woo woo woo" LOL She is so funny.

Reza

Aaron's friend Reza sent this in a text to Aaron on Christmas Day. What a dork! lol It's fun to make fun of Reza, and he makes it so easy!

Christmas Day

This picture was actually taken Christmas Eve, but they are so darn cute!
Our tree Christmas morning

A husky Webkinz for Anthony. Emma got a clydesdale horse and Sara....

got a pink poodle!

Anthony was pretty excited about his Fly Fuzion pen. He also got the mp3 player he has been begging for!

Emma got a Littlest Petshop playset.

Sara got a My Little Pony ice cream truck. She has been asking for it. We dropped the kid's off with my mom to finish our Christmas shopping and when Sara was getting out of the car she said "don't forgot the ppny ice cream truck"! She's so cute!

A camcorder to record his skateboard tricks

Opening a "cracker" I made him. I made them each a surprise ball and 3 crackers filled with candy. I totally forgot to take pics. The crackers were toilet paper rolls fille with candy and wrapped in tissue paper with stickers on them.

We went to my mom's for breakfast after opening presents. She made us awesome Belgian waffles, bacon and scrambled eggs with cheese. MMMMMM

Then we went to Aaron's sister Jennifer's house. Here is Sara with their cat.

Aaron's brother in law Alfredo

Aaron's neice Kayla harassing Sara.

Aaron's other neice, Danyelle, holding the huge remote!

All of the kids. From left, Anthony, Austin, Kayla, Diana, Emma, Sara and Danyelle. Kayla and Austin are brother and sister and Diana and Danyelle are sisters.

Aaron and his sisters. Tracy, Jennifer and Nicole. Tracy is the oldest, then Jennifer, Aaron and last, Nicole.

They love their brother...awwwwww

Kayla on the floor after the first time Aaron flipped her upside down

She kept beating him up and so he would pick her up and flip her.

Then he said "stop hitting yourself, stop hitting yourself" lol

They made up! Until he starting harassing her about having a boyfriend at 14. lol

Sara with her cousin Austin.

Emma was in love with their cat.

Anthony, Kayla and Austin

Emma, the cat and Kayla

Kayla gave Sara a piece of Tinkerbell paper so that she would pose in a picture with her.

Santa

We are so cool by waiting until Christmas Eve to take the kids to see Santa! lol I made Emma wear a bow, she didn't have a choice. She actually went along with it pretty well.
Sara being silly and showing off!

Pretty new hair bows to wear!

There is a reason Anthony looks goofy in this picture. First he was over-smiling, so I told him to knock it off, then he wouldn't smile, then too big of a smile...it went back and forth for a couple of minutes and I said forget it and took this one....that boy drives me crazy sometimes! lol

Emma with Daddy. You will never meet a bigger Daddy's Girl!!

Sara was made to take this picture. lol

Aaron and his pretty Little Mermaid purse. When I took the picture I told him I was "so going to blog this" and he said "I know you are"....hehehe....well at least he knows me!

Oh yeah, can't forget his seahorse phone!

The ballon guy made her a pink poodle (her favorite right now)Emma had a candy cane, but it came apart and so she made an arch for them.

Anthony found this shirt in Dillard's and I had to take his picture with it....haha

He didn't want to sit on Santa's lap and take a picture because he thinks that he is so grown up now. I had to break it to him.....no picture, no presents. I will hold that over the kids until they are 18, even older if I can...I will try though!Attack of the pink poodle~~

My view of them sitting on Santa's lap
